Abstract

This paper studies the process mineralogy of a tungsten-copper ore by MLA combined with traditional methods.The results indicate that the valuable metallic minerals recycled from the samples are scheelite,chalcopyrite associated with bismuth.Pyrrhotite and fluorite can also be recovered.Tungsten mainly exists as scheelite with recovery rate attaining 96 % while copper chiefly exists as chalcopyrite with recovery rate reaching 87 %.
