The global sponge copper market is expected to display splendid growth in forthcoming period. Sponge copper is the by-product of sulfide ores that have been processed for ages in Zaire and Zambia by roast-leach-electrowin process (RLE) process. The sulfides are then concentrated and roasted to produce an oxidized iron – copper sinter. This sinter is also sent to the leaching vats where copper is leached and recovered directly from the leach solution, a low-grade copper cathode is produced which must be refined electrolytically. The byproduct is recovered by an RLE process.
Sulfuric acid is usually added to the leaching fluid and form the leaching tanks, copper sulphate is passed to the iron launders. The launders contain troughs consisting of sponge iron or iron scrap. The iron reacts with copper sulfate solution to precipitate a black sand called cement copper that is 90% copper. The sulfur is burned off dissipating heat for the operation and iron converts to iron oxide to form a slag lighter than copper.
