Abstract
1297124 Metals from sulphide ores MITSUBISHI KINZOKU KOGYO K K 4 Dec 1969 [7 Dec 1968] 59189/69 Heading C7D A method for the continuous recovery of a metal from its sulphide ore comprises (i) feeding the ore, flux, fuel and air into a smelling furnace (ii) separating the melt into a matte and slag (iii) feeding the matte and air into a bluster furnace, each furnace having means independently to control the composition, temperature, position of the free surface and the liquid/ liquid interface of the melt therein, in order to maintain them substantially constant, heat exchange in the assembly being effected by the transfer of melt from one furnace to the other. In the first preferred embodiment, Fig. 1, three furnaces 1, 2 and 3 are arranged in sequence; iron containing copper ore; flux, fuel and air are supplied via lances 6 to the smelting furnace 1 the slag 4 produced overflows at 7 and the matte 5 siphons into the slagging furnace 2 via 8, 9 and 10; air, coolants and flux are fed into the slagging furnace 2 via lances 13 whereupon separation into a lowiron white metal 11 and revert slag 12 occurs, the revert slag being returned to the smelting furnace 1 via a bubble pump, Fig. 3 (not shown) or bucket chain and the white metal 11 being siphoned via 16, 17 and 18 to the blister furnace 3; air and optionally flux is blown via lances 21 into the blister furnace 3 whereupon separation occurs into blister copper 20 containing for example 98% copper and a white metal layer 19, insufficient air being used to produce a slag. In the second embodiment, Fig. 4 (not shown) the matte from the smelting furnace 1 is directly charged into the blister furnace 3, and the slag produced in the blister furnace is returned to the smelting furnace, the slagging furnace 2 of Fig. 1 being dispensed with. The prosers may be applied to ones of copper, nickel and cobalt.
