and kinetics of roasting process of sulphide copper concentrate is of a crucial significance in autogenous processes of smelting of copper [1] and many researchers give their contribution to this topic. So, Bayer and Wiedermann [2] have shown that the oxidation of pure CuFeS2 starts at 400 oC, while addition of alkali salts decreases the starting temperature of oxidation process to 200 oC.
