What will I learn?
This Hydrometallurgy Mastery Course equips you with hands-on techniques to enhance copper oxide heap leaching results. Explore essential leach chemistry, impurity dynamics, redox management, kinetics, and heap hydrodynamics, then implement diagnostic assessments, sampling methods, and mass balance computations to pinpoint inefficiencies, devise remedies, optimise acid application, and deliver data-driven recommendations to leadership with assurance.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Copper heap leach chemistry: predict Cu dissolution, speciation, and impurity behaviour.
- Heap hydrodynamics control: adjust irrigation, aeration, and acid to boost recovery quickly.
- Diagnostic testing in heaps: plan sampling, ANC, and column tests to direct solutions.
- Operational optimisation: balance acid consumption, Cu recovery, costs, and SX feed quality.
- Quantitative reporting: construct Cu and acid mass balances plus clear management reports.
