In the Isasmelt process for copper smelting, copper ores are reacted with oxygen and silica to form a two phase liquid mixture of copper matte and slag in the Isasmelt furnace. This mixture is then settled in a rotary holding furnace (RHF) where the mixture is fed in at one end and exits through side ports close to the opposite end of the furnace.

The copper tailings had low content of organic carbon (< 0.3%) which mainly derived from black shale and lignite that are present in copper ore deposits, and from flotation agents.

Copper is among the most widely recycled metals in the world. Old copper products can be melted down and reshaped into new products, reducing the need to mine for copper ore. In fact, it is estimated that the majority of the 700 billion pounds of copper humans have extracted from the earth throughout history is still in use today.
