A process for refining a crude material for copper or copper alloy which contains as impurity elements at least one species of Pb, Ni, Sb, S, Bi, and As in combination with at least one species of Sn, Fe, and Zn, which comprises the sequential steps of (1) melting a crude material for copper or copper alloy, (2a) increasing the oxygen concentration in the melt, thereby oxidizing Sn, Fe, and Zn into slag, (this step is carried out if the crude material contains as impurity elements at least one species of Sn, Fe, and Zn) (2b) adding to the melt at least one species selected from the group consisting of Fe, Fe oxide, Mn, and Mn oxide, thereby causing Pb, Ni, Sb, S, Bi, and As in the melt to slag in the form of compound oxide of Fe and/or Mn, (3) removing the thus formed slag from the melt, and (4) subjecting the melt to reduction.
