In heap bioleaching, acidophilic extremophiles contribute to enhanced metal extraction from mineral sulphides through the oxidation of Fe(II) and/or reduced inorganic sulphur compounds (RISC), such as elemental sulphur or mineral sulphides, or the de

In this study, a dynamically-controlled column was used to evaluate two ores known to cause heap overheating. This enabled the simulation of heap self-heating under controlled conditions. The lixiviant was inoculated with a consortia of mesophilic an

The effects of independent variables such as, temperature, concentration of ionic liquid (1-butyl-3-methyl-imidazolium hydrogen sulphate, [bmim][HSO 4 ]), chloride and sulphuric acid on copper extraction from chalcopyrite (CuFeS 2 ) ore were studied

The effect of increasing temperature from 30 to 60 °C on iron (II)-oxidation activity and microbial population development in columns was investigated. With respect to ‘mode of inoculation’, pre-inoculation of the ore with a mixed culture result

Industrial heap leaching of low grade mineral sulfide ores is catalysed by the use of acidophilic microorganisms. These microorganisms obtain energy for growth from the oxidation of reduced inorganic or organic compounds, including soluble ferrous io

Three oxidants, hypochlorous acid, chlorate and nitrate, were assessed for their ability to oxidise chalcopyrite (CuFeS2). Hypochlorous acid was the most aggressive oxidant trialled, with copper extraction reaching a plateau after 1–5 h. Extraction

The chloride tolerance of three Fe (II)- and sulfur-oxidising thermophiles and the effect of chloride on metals extraction from mineral sulfides were studied. Initially, 10-day bioleaching tests (60 °C) were conducted using pyrite (FeS2), chalcopyri

As Alicyclobacillus-like strain FP1 was isolated from copper heap process water (pH 1.5), this research was directed towards its bioleaching attributes, specifically ferrous ion (Fe (II)) and reduced inorganic sulfur compound (RISC) oxidation, and bi

Due to the scarcity of water in the north of Chile, there is interest in small-scale mining using seawater to leach the minerals. This situation has led to this research aimed to determine the effect of different process variables on the extraction o
