  10. Bornite Cu5FeS4 Copper ore Chalcopiryte CuFeS2 Chalkotit Cu2S

  11. The copper ore deposits are situated in the south-west of Poland, in Lower Silesia. These deposits are at the depths from 1000 – 1400 metres in the Permian – Rotliegendes and Zechstein sediments

  12. Geological cross-section

  13. Copper ore series : shale , sandstones, dolomite - limestone Copper contents : ~ 1,0% Cu.Ore minerals : chalkotite, bornite, chalcopiryte thickness :0,4–26,0m (average 2-5m)
