Copper can be lost from the matte in three ways: as cuprous oxide (Cu 2 O) dissolved in the slag, [34] as sulfide copper dissolved in the slag [35] or as tiny droplets (or prills) of matte suspended in the slag. [36] [37] The amount of copper lost as oxide copper increases as the oxygen potential of the slag increases. [37]
