Chapter 2 Roasting of Sulfide Minerals

Oxidizing roast is carried out to prepare a totally or a partly oxide product. For example, dead roasting of sphalerite concentrate to an all-oxide product is the prerequisite for the pyrometallurgical smelting processes. For copper and nickel extraction, only partial roasting is practiced. In order to produce a mixed oxide–
