The process can be used on ores that are only to one percent copper, too little for conventional refining. The solution is then drained in to an electrolytic cell and copper extracted from it. In addition, studies show that zinc, nickel and cobalt can also largely be extracted by the process of bioleaching (Rawlings, Douglas, and Johnson 2007).

The oxide ore has a much higher grade than the mixed and sulphide ores but contributes less to the resource (Broughton et al., 2002). The preferred method for the flotation of oxide and mixed copper ores is sulphidisation. The reagents are typically sodium sulphide (Na 2 S) and sodium hydrosulphide (NaHS). Slug sulphidisation, which uses a ...

Overview and Industrial Applications. Leaching is defined as "the treatment of complex substances, like a mineral, with a specific solvent, able to separate its soluble parts from the insoluble ones" [].The process is used for the production of a concentrated solution of valuable solid material or to remove an insoluble solid from a soluble material with which it is contaminated.

Introduction. Biomining has, over the past 50 years, emerged as an important area of biotechnology ( Brierley and Brierley, 2013, Johnson, 2013, Brierley, 2008 ). Within this time it has developed from minimallyengineered dump leaching of runofmine copper ore to computercontrolled bioreactors used mostly for preoxidising refractory gold ores.
