The Process The concentrated ore is heated strongly with silicon dioxide (silica) and air or oxygen in a furnace or series of furnaces. The copper (II) ions in the chalcopyrite are reduced to copper (I) sulfide (which is reduced further to copper metal in the final stage). The iron in the chalcopyrite ends up converted into an iron (II) silicate slag which is removed. Most of the sulfur in the
