Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

This article presents an innovative approach to processing copper ore from one of the deposits in Kazakhstan, aimed at enhancing the efficiency of copper extraction from materials with a complex mineral composition. The described methodology includes several key stages: comprehensive analysis of the ore's material composition, gravity and flotation beneficiation, as well as hydrometallurgical processes. During the study, the ores underwent preliminary preparation, including crushing and grinding to the required fineness. Experiments on gravity and flotation beneficiation demonstrated that optimizing the parameters of these processes significantly increases the yield of copper concentrate. Additionally, sulfuric acid leaching conducted showed high efficiency in extracting copper from the ground ore. The research results confirm that a comprehensive approach to copper ore processing ensures high efficiency in extracting valuable components and opens up prospects for the sustainable and economically viable utilization of complex copper ores
