The Extraction of Copper
Chalcopyrite (also known as copper pyrites) and similar sulfide ores are the commonest ores of copper. The ores typically contain low percentages of copper and have to be concentrated before refining (e.g., via froth flotation). Figure 1: Chalcopyrite extracted from Zacatecas, Mexico. from Rob Lavinsky (iRocks) under a CC-BY-SA-3.0 license.

Flotation of copper oxide minerals: A review
When the pH is higher than 10, numerous hydroxide anions exist in the pulp, which can competitively adsorb with xanthate anions on the malachite surface, thus decreasing the flotation recovery of malachite. Similar to the flotation results of malachite, chrysocolla and cuprite show good floatability at pH 9 and 9.5, respectively [91], [92].
