ABSTRACT:
There is provided a novel hydrometallurgical process for the extraction of copper from sulphidic concentrates involving an oxidizing pressure leach using dilute sulphuric acid and a carbonaceous additive. The leaching step is carried out preferably at temperatures above the melting point of sulphur but below about 200.degree. C.
