Concentrates
Non-ferrous concentrates refer to ores that contain valuable minerals such as copper, lead, zinc, nickel and precious metals -
excluding iron. These metals require specialised techniques and processes distinct from the methods used to extract iron from its ores.
Non-ferrous concentrates are usually obtained from underground mining or open-pit mining, and are processed through various
stages to remove impurities and extract the valuable metals. These concentrates play a crucial role in producing a wide range of industrial products, including wiring, plumbing, batteries and electronic devices.
As demand for these metals continues to grow in various industries, the importance of non-ferrous concentrates in the global
economy is likely to increase.
