Alternative Method for Indium Recovery from Chalcopyrite Concentrate

A recent study by Mehmet Umut Beşirli and Assoc. Prof. Dr. Hüseyin Baştürkcü from Istanbul Technical University proposes an alternative route for extracting indium from chalcopyrite concentrate, a copper-rich sulfide material. Unlike conventional recovery processes that rely on zinc-based sources, this study demonstrates that chalcopyrite can serve as a viable primary source of indium through a newly designed process flowsheet.
