How to Remove Arsenic, Antimony & Bismuth from Copper
Removal of arsenic, antimony and bismuth from copper may take place in the smelting operations by scorification, volatilization, or, under special treatment, by processes of concentration. Owing to the great variety of materials that are treated in economical metallurgy, it is rarely possible to obtain exact weights from any particular operation.

TACKLING IMPURITIES IN COPPER CONCENTRATES
The bismuth-bearing sulphosalts in the mid-grade concentrate all appeared to contain lead and were identified as cosalite (Pb 2 BiS 5), aikinite (PbCuBiS 3) and proudite (Cu 0-1,Pb 7.5 (Bi) 9.3-9.7 (S,Se) 22). In contrast, the high-grade concentrate had no bismuthinite and had most of its bismuth tied up in the Bi-Pb

How is Bismuth Formed? | The Bismuth Smith
Bismuth is a chemical element that is found alongside other metals in the Earth's crust in small amounts. This metal is formed through the process of geological differentiation, which occurs when the Earth's molten magma cools and solidifies. As the magma cools, minerals and other elements settle out of the liquid and form deposits.
