The effects of oxidized copper ores which came from Yunnan province were carried out by using ammonialeaching methods in the laboratory.In order to seek the optimum leaching conditions under normal temperature and pressure,we conducted a series of validation experiments. Theoptimum conditions were obtained as follows: ammonia concentration 2.5mol/L, ammonium sulfateconcentration 2.5mol/L,grinding fineness about 80% -0.074mm, liquid-solid ratio 2.5:1and leaching time was 2.5h. Under these experimental conditions, the copper leaching rate could reach 69.91%.
