Hydrometallurgy Course
This course equips you to excel in copper oxide heap leaching, covering chemistry through to hydrodynamics. Diagnose poor recovery, conduct vital lab tests, fine-tune acid and irrigation, manage mass balances and reagents, and craft sharp reports for smarter metallurgical choices that lift operations.

What will I learn?
Gain hands-on skills to boost copper oxide heap leaching results. Master leach chemistry, impurities, redox, kinetics, and heap flow, then use tests, sampling, and balances to spot issues, fix problems, optimise acid, and deliver solid data reports to bosses.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Copper heap leach chemistry: forecast Cu dissolution, speciation, and impurity effects.
- Heap hydrodynamics control: adjust irrigation, aeration, and acid to rapidly boost recovery.
- Diagnostic testing in heaps: plan sampling, ANC, and column tests to direct solutions.
- Operational optimisation: balance acid, Cu recovery, costs, and SX feed standards.
- Quantitative reporting: develop Cu and acid mass balances plus clear boss reports.
