A typical ore contains only 0.5% to 2.0% copper. It is a measure of the value of copper that it is worth extracting it from such small concentrations. The ore is a mixture of minerals and rock (called gangue). The most common copper minerals are:

Sometimes the copper ore mineral is different; for example, chalcocite (copper sulphide) is very different from malachite (copper carbonate with water). The non-copper minerals in the ore, called gangue, vary as well.

Blister copper is refined by an electrolytic process. Blister copper in the form of a large plate is made as anode. A thin plate of pure copper is cathode. A solution of CuSO4 is used as an electrolyte. ... Ores mostly consists of a mixture of minerals with useless or worth less rocky materials which are called gangue.

Historically, the most abundant copper bearing ore was called chalcopyrite, CuFeS2. This ore is first enriched by a process called flotation. Powdered ore is mixed water as a slurry and then further mixed with oil and a chemical called amyl xanthate.
