There is currently no widely accepted industrial process that specifically aims to separate copper and arsenic minerals by flotation. Arsenic bearing minerals such as enargite (Cu 3 AsS 4) are a rich source of copper. Enargite contains 48 wt% of copper, compared to chalcopyrite (CuFS 2) which contains 34 wt% copper.
