dirty concentrate


Explanation:
Refers to impurities present in the concentrate which contains the copper and is used in the leaching process.

Example sentence(s):
  • Galvanox can be applied to the entire concentrate output, particularly where dirty concentrates create smelting issues. (See ref. 1)
  • The Albion Process is not sensitive to concentrate grade, and can process low grade, dirty concentrates, high in iron, copper, and lead, that cannot traditionally be treated via roasting. (See ref. 2)
