Gold processing 101
At current gold prices this is worth about US$600. Both smelter treatment charges and oxidation or bio-leach costs are at least $200/t of concentrate and payables/recovery in the 90% range, so a minimum GSR for effective downstream processing is around 0.5. Clearly this is a function of gold price, but in the current gold …

The Extraction of Copper
In the copper(I) sulfide, the copper is +1 and the sulfur -2. The oxidation states of the elements oxygen (in the gas) and copper (in the metal) are 0. In sulfur dioxide, the oxygen has an oxidation state of -2 and the sulfur +4. That means that both the copper and the oxygen have been reduced (decrease in oxidation state).

Chemical Composition Data of the Main Stages of Copper
In the fire refining stage, the remaining sulfur and oxygen in the blister copper are eliminated through oxidation; sulfur is removed by adding O 2 (air), which reacts with S to form SO 2, whereas CO and H 2 are added to reduce Cu 2 O and form Cu, CO 2 and H 2 O . Thus, the fire-refined copper complies with the chemical specifications …
