ABSTRACT The invention relates to a method for working-up valuable metal-bearing waste products, particularly but not exclusively copper scrap, containing a substantial amount of organic constituents, to a product form suitable for recovering the valuable-metal content, while expelling the organic constituents by pyrolysis and/or combustion in a reactor which rotates about its longitudinal axis and which is provided with a common reactor charging and reactor emptying opening. The invention is characterized in that, subsequent to expelling at least the major part of the organic content, the resultant residual products in the reactor are brought into close contact with a molten bath which is obtained from any metal-sulphide material and which contains at least a metal-sulphide phase or a metallic phase capable of dissolving at least the valuable-metal content of the residual product. Subsequent to dissolving and expelling respectively substantially all the material originally charged to the reactor, the metal values are recovered from the metal-sulphide phase and/or the metallic phase, in a suitable conventional manner.
