Mining is where it all begins. Copper deposits are extracted from the earth using various methods: Open-pit Mining: This method involves excavating the earth's surface to access shallow copper deposits. Underground Mining: Deeper copper deposits require tunneling into the earth, where miners extract the valuable ore.

Processing. At some Australian mines, the copper is leached from the ore to produce a copper-rich solution which is later treated to recover the copper metal. The ore is first broken and set out on leach pads where it is dissolved by a sulfuric acid solution to leach out the copper.

The tailings are contained by an embankment. Also visible in the foreground of Figure 8.2.3 is a pile of waste rock, which is non-ore rock that was mined in order to access the ore. Although this waste rock has low levels of ore minerals, at many mines it contains up to a few percent pyrite.

Copper mines there require lots of water to process sulfide ores, and the lower the grade, the more water must be used. Since major copper miners are increasingly turning to low-grade sulfide deposits to beef up their production, their water consumption is expected to jump up to 20.9 cubic meters per second (about half an average home pool).
