Leach Chalcopyrite using Lime Roasting Process

The effect of the temperature used in roasting chalcopyrite with lime was determined first. A range of 600° to 900° C was selected for testing after it was found that below 600° C, CaSO3 was formed, while above 900° C, CaSO4 decomposed to CaO plus SO3. This is in agreement with the findings of other investigators.
