(d) 3 The average copper grade of the ore is 0.7 %. The total pregnant solution flowrate from all the leach pads is 8 000 m³/hr, with an average concentration of 1.8 kg/m³, with the concentration of copper in the lixiviant that is irrigated onto the heap being 0.2 kg/m (ignore any solution or copper losses to the environment in these calculations). What is the average copper recovery for the process?
