Heap leaching of copper ores is widely practiced, particularly in North and South America, for the leaching of acid-soluble oxide minerals and secondary sulfides, such as chalcocite. The contribution to hydrometallurgical copper production by heap leaching is expected to continue, because this technology is relatively simple, robust, flexible, and low cost.

Heap leaching accounts for around 20% of the global production of copper. In heap leaching coarsely crushed ore particles are contacted with an aqueous lixiviant percolating through large packed beds (heaps) of the ore particles, with the loaded solution collected at the foot of the heap for metal recovery, solution make-up and recycle.

Heap leaching is a simple means of recovering copper from oxide and oxide-sulfide ores. Although this method requires relatively low capital investment, it suffers from low copper recoveries and relatively high acid consumption.

In heap leaching the ore is usually heaped as it comes from the mine without any breaking on crushing treatment. Frequently, pieces of rock 5 or 6 feet across a face are found in the heaps. Solution is added to the ore at the surface and seeps downward by gravity and is collected in a solution sump.
