The extraction of copper from pyrites is more difficult than from its oxide ores through reduction because -

1.  Gf of HCl is less than that of H2S and CS2

2. Gf of HNO3 is less than that of H2S and CS2

3.  Gf of Cu2S is less than that of H2S and CS2

4. Gf of CuSO4 is less than that of H2S and CS2
