In the present work, the high temperature oxygen pressure leaching behavior of chalcopyrite was studied in sulfuric acid solution. The influence of leaching time, temperature and oxygen partial pressure on leaching process were examined. Leaching rate of copper increased significantly with increasing leaching temperature. Copper recovery reached 87.1% within 2 hours at $200^{\circ}C$ and 10 atm oxygen pressure, while most of the solubilized iron readily re-precipitates as hematite($Fe_2O_3$). It was confirmed that e main leach reaction of chalcopyrite occurred through oxidation with oxygen under oxygen pressure and high temperature(above $150^{\circ}C$). Because sulfur was oxidized entirely to sulfate, passivating elemental sulfur layer was not formed.

The leaching behaviors of copper from chalcopyrite were investigated by sulfuric acid. The leaching of copper was examined according to concentration of sulfuric acid, leaching temperature and addition of hydrogen peroxide and ethylene glycol. The concentrations sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide in the leaching solution were increased, the leaching efficiencies of Cu were increased. At $30 -60^{\circ}C$, the leaching efficiency of Cu was increased but it was decreased at $70 - 80^{\circ}C$. The results were due to the increasing of hydrogen peroxide decomposition in the solution above $70^{\circ}C$. In the case of ethylene glycol added at $80^{\circ}C$, the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide was decreased and the leaching efficiency was increased. As a result of SEM analysis of leaching residue after leaching, the residue was found to porous form in the case of the ethylene glycol added and then the leaching efficiency of Cu was increased by the increase of surface area under $60^{\circ}C$ with ethylene glycol.

조성에 따른 밴드갭 조절이 용이하고 광흡수율이 결정질, 비결정질 실리콘보다 높으며 황동광 구조를 갖는 CuIn1-xGaxSe2 계 물질은 박막형 태양전지의 광흡수층으로 널리 쓰이고 있다. 기존 동시증발법, 스퍼터링법 등 진공 공정 기반 기술이 갖는 고비용 문제와 대면적화 필요성에 대한 대안으로 비진공 박막 증착법이 활발히 연구되고 있는 가운데, 본 연구에서는 닥터블 레이드 코팅법을 이용하여 상온 및 상압 환경에서 쉽게 전구체 박막을 코팅한 후 열처리함으로써 CuInSe2 박막을 얻을 수 있었다. 고분자로 이루어진 바인더(binder) 물질과 금속 아세테이트 (metal acetate)계 전구체를 용매에 용해시킨 후 이를 도포하고, 추가적인 산화 열처리 과정 (oxidation)을 통해 최근 문제가 되고 있는 잔류탄소층 문제를 해결할 수 있었다. XRD 분석 결과, 금속 전구체들은 산화 과정 통해 금속산화물로 변환되고, 이후 셀렌화(Selenization)과정에서 산소(Oxygen)가 셀레늄(Selenium)으로 치환되는 반응이 일어나는 것으로 관찰되었다. 또한 SEM 분석을 통해 잔류 탄소층이 존재하지 않으며 결정립 크기가 최대 수백nm 정도임을 확인하였다.

The Cu-Pb-Zn-Ag hydrothermal vein-type deposits which comprise the Sambong mine occur within calc-alkaline volcanics of the Cretaceous Gyeongsang Basin. The ore mineralization took place through three distinct stages of quartz (I and II stages) and calcite veins (III stage) which fill the pre-existing fault breccia zones. These stages were separated in time by tectonic fracturing and brecciation events. The reflection variations of one mineral depending on mineralization sequence are considered to be resulted from variation in its chemical composition due to different physico-chemical conditions in the hydrothermal system. The reflection power of sphalerite increases with the content of Fe substituted for Zn. Reflectances of the sphalerite grain are lower on (111) than on (100) surface. The spectral profiles depend on the internal reflection color. Sphalerite, showing green, yellow and reddish brown internal reflection, have the highest reflection power at $544m{\mu}$ (green), $593m{\mu}$ (yellow) and $615m{\mu}$ (red) wavelength, respectively. Chalcopyrite is recognized as biaxial negative from the reflectivity data of randomly oriented grains measured at the most sensitivity at $544m{\mu}$. The microindentation hardness against the Fe content (wt. %) for the sphalerite increases to 8.05% Fe and then decreases toward 9.5% Fe content. Vickers hardness of the sphalerite is considerably higher on surface of (100) than on (111). The relationship between Vickers hardness and crystal orientation of the galena was determined to be $VHN_{(111)}$ > $VHN_{(210)}$ > $VHN_{(100)}$. The softer sulfides have the wider variation of the diagonal length in the indentation. Diagonal length in the indentation is pyrite

The influence of oxidation on the floatability of sulfide minerals contained in mine failings has been investigated employing chalcopyrite as a target material. The critical surface tension of chalcopyrite was estimated to be about 15.5 dyne/cm based on Zisman plot and the floatability of chalcopyrite was observed to increase with the concentration of collector. The enhanced float-ability of chalcopyrite at its initial stage of oxidation was considered to be due to the transformation of disulfide to elemental sulfur and the decrease in its floatability at further oxidation was presumably caused by the formation of sulfate and/or disulfur trioxide from elemental sulfur. When the oxidized chalcopyrite was reduced, its floatability was increased and the variation of the critical surface tension of chalcopyrite according to tile oxidation/reduction was interpreted by an energy diagram constructed by different bond energies between atoms.

The aim of this study was to obtain information on the ancient material of cast bronze through an investigation of the microstructure and impurity characteristics of the casting. Three Koryo bronze coins were analyzed using an optical microscope, scanning electron microscope, and electron dispersive X-ray analyses were used to determine the composition of the specimens. The three coins had 4 phases: ${\alpha}phase$, ${\delta}phase$, Pb, and impurities ($Cu_2S$). $Cu_2S$ was found to exist near Pb or in ${\delta}phase$. $Cu_2S$ is the inter mediate product of copper ore refining. Therefore, the copper ore was not completely refined. To find out the characteristic of $Cu_2S$, we melt 1)Koryo bronze coin and 2)$Cu_2S$ and Pb powder at 1273 K. The reaction between $Cu_2S$ and Pb at 1273 K yielded fine Cu and black gas, which was identified to be PbS and is presented below: $Cu_2S+Pb{\rightarrow}PbS{\uparrow}+2Cu$.

As a basic study to recover the copper from the copper converter slag, the characterisitcs of converter slag was studied. The results obtained in this work are as follows. 1. The copper converter slag is composed of Cu, $Cu_2$S, $Fe_3$$O_4$, Fayalite and silicate. 2. It is supposed that magnetite in converter slag is oxidized to hematite at $720^{\circ}C$ and this phase is soluted to fayalite. 3. As the converter slag is added in the water solution, pH increased and the heavy metal ions in the water are adsorbed on the slag. 4. Work index of the converter slag cooled for the 10 hour and the 2 hour are 25~27 kWh/ton and 35 kWh/ton, respectively. 5. In the case of grinding test of converter slag, fayalite in converter slag is easily grinded than magnetite in converter slag.
