Copper processing is a complicated process that begins with mining of the ore less than 1% copper and ends with sheets of % pure copper called cathodes which will ultimately be made into products for everyday most common types of ore copper oxide and copper sulfide undergo two different processes hydrometallurgy and pyrometallurgy respectively due to the different

To understand how copper is formed it helps to look at how porphyry deposits—the largest current sources of copper ore—form The orebodies form in hydrothermal veins that are born in underground magma chambers far below the deposit itself The high temperatures of volcanic magma creates hydrothermal veins allowing some of the heat to escape near the upper layers of the Earth s crust
