This process is widely applied in mineral industry. Generally, iron is used for cementation of copper ( Nadkarni and Wadsworth, 1967 ). However, during cementation of copper with iron, the recovery of economically valued metals such as zinc from the solution is difficult since the solution contains high iron concentration.

Copper powder cementation can prevent the co-precipitation of copper in solution to improve the grade of the gold product and also supplement the oxidant in the solution, thereby enhancing the cyclic leaching of gold into the solution, which can reduce production costs.
The cementation is a unique process that allows the hardening of steel surfaces without losing the ductility of the core part. One of the most old process for hardening of steel surface, but largely applied for axles and cams, it can be used in brass and copper, but its more common in steel. Parts made of steel with medium or high percentage of ...
