Wuxin Copper Improves Slag Utilization, Reduces Losses and Boosts Economic Benefits
In H1, performance indicators for the industrial pilot project on comprehensive utilization of smelting slag resources at Wuxin Copper continued to improve. Through crushing, grinding, and refined flotation, the copper content in tailings slag was further reduced. This could reduce copper losses by about 170 mt over the full year, increase the copper recovery rate by 0.2 percentage points, and deliver additional annual economic benefits of more than 20 million yuan.
