the openings of copper converter in sarcheshmeh copper complex in iranis made of a heat resisting austenitic steel (fe-25cr-12ni) and many failures have been reported. understanding the failure mechanism of the alloy helps to develop better alloys for similar complex environments. samples of as-cast alloy and those taken from failed ones were examined. optical microscopy (om), x-ray diffraction...

Investigation of mineralization and fluid inclusions the Lapeh-Zanak copper deposit, Central Alborz zone, Iran

Seasonal and spatial variations in metal concentrations and pH were found in a stream at a restored copper mine site located near a massive sulfide deposit in the Foothill copper-zinc belt of the Sierra Nevada, California. At the mouth of the stream, copper concentrations increased and pH decreased with increased streamflow after the onset of winter rain and, unexpectedly, reached extreme value...

Annually, hundreds of thousands tons slags are involved in the reverberator and flash smelting as well converting operations Cu-Fe sulfide concentrates to produce matte Sar Cheshmeh copper smelter plant, Iran, disposed landfill cooled air. Due their relatively high average content (about 1.5 wt%), a mineral processing plant based on flotation process has recently been established Cu-sulfide con...

introduction a wide variety of world-class porphyry cu deposits occur in the urumieh-dohktar magmatic arc (udma) of iran.the arc is composed of calc-alkaline granitoid rocks, and the ore-hosting porphyry intrusions are dominantly granodiorite to quartz-monzonite (zarasvandi et al., 2015). it is believed that faults played an important role in the emplacement of intrusions and subsequentporphyry...
