Upgradation of MoO3 and separation of copper, iron, zinc ...
· Copper and zinc were quickly influenced by the time, whereas iron was slowly influenced by the time. This is because the leaching kinetics of copper are fast relative to the other metals. Therefore, when considering only the copper leach rate (because only copper is a restriction target), 10 minutes is more than enough to leach ~80 to 83% (Fig. 7).
