The sulphide minerals concentrates are an important source of raw material in extractive processes of nonferrous metals. This study aims to evaluate the chemical processing of a chalcopyrite concentrate with a relatively low copper content. The motivation for the research comes from a partnership with a chemicals production company with interest in obtaining, selectively, CuSO4 and Fe2O3 from this kind of concentrate. For the purpose of meet this objective, it was performed a thermodynamic study, as well as an appreciation of the thermochemical behavior of the reaction system, in order to identify the conditions under which the mentioned selectivity could be fulfilled. Thereafter, it was conducted an experimental study evaluating variables such as temperature and chemical composition of the atmosphere over the reaction time. The obtained products as well as the raw materials were characterized using X-Ray Diffraction, Scanning Electron Microscopy and X-Ray Spectroscopy Energy Dispersive. Finally, some water-solubilizing tests were performed on selected roasted products samples in order to verify, in practice, the selective conversion of chalcopyrite into CuSO4 and Fe2O3. Such fact could be observed through the formation of a blue liquor, typical copper sulfate, and a brown solid residue deprived of Cu, as verified by the characterization methods.
