A hydrometallurgical process for the separate recovery of non-ferrous, ferrous, and precious metal values and sulfur from metal sulfide ore concentrates by leaching of metal sulfides with a lixiviant containing ferric chloride, cupric chloride and chlorine, precipitating cuprous chloride from the leach solution with butadiene, separating and decomposing the formed addition compound to recover the cuprous chloride, oxidizing and hydrolyzing the cuprous chloride to precipitate cupric oxychloride, converting the cupric oxychloride to cupric oxide, and reducing the cupric oxide with hydrogen for the recovery of copper. The leach residue is treated for the recovery of elemental sulfur and gold. Brine solution resulting from the conversion of cupric oxychloride to cupric oxide is electrolyzed for the production of sodium hydroxide for the cupric oxychloride conversion, hydrogen for the cupric oxide reduction and chlorine, which is partly used in the recovery of gold and partly recycled to the concentrate leach. Silver is recovered as silver iodide from the mother liquor from the cuprous chloride precipitation with butadiene. A portion of the solution from the silver recovery is treated for recovery of Cu, Zn, Co and Ni, and the remaining portion and residual solution from Cu, Zn, Co and Ni recovery are treated with oxygen at elevated temperature and pressure for the regeneration of ferric chloride and precipitation of excess iron as anhydrous ferric oxide.
