Copper process · 02 / Reduce the rock

Primary crushing

Primary crushing reduces large pieces of ore mechanically. The machine arrangement depends on the ore and duty. A crusher does not extract copper or separate it chemically; it prepares the material for later stages.

What arrives

Coarse ore from the receiving area

What leaves

Smaller rock for conveying and further preparation
