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.

The first recognized biomining operation was set up within 20 years of the discovery of the first species of bacterium that was demonstrated to catalyze the dissolution of pyrite and other base metalcontaining sulfide minerals in acidic liquors [12, 13].In reality, the same biological process had been unknowingly used to extract metals at mine sites in, for example, Spain, the UK and China ...

Chalcopyrite is the most abundant copperbearing mineral (approximately 80% of the world copper ore reserves) and is the main source of copper metal production [].At present, the industrial method employed to process chalcopyrite for metal production is pyroelectrometallurgy comprising comminution, flotation, smelting, converting, pyrorefining and electrorefining [].

In the heap bioleaching of 600,000 t of lowgrade copper ore, copper extraction reached up to 50% in 2 months. Bioleaching solution was processed using SXEW, producing cathode copper at a rate greater than 10,000 t y −1. Biomining technology was estimated to increase copper recovery by 20%, and to reduce acid consumption by at least 35% ...

Crushing, a form of comminution, one of the unit operations of mineral processing. In the field of extractive metallurgy, mineral processing is the process of separating commercially valuable minerals from their ores. [1] Depending on the processes used in each instance, it is often also known as ore dressing or ore milling .

Oxidized copper ores, mixed oxidesulfide ores, ... Because the flotation feed is acidic, dixanthogen is the commonly used collector. Copper recovery by the LPF process is generally about 90 percent. The main improvement in recent years in the LPF process has been the availability of more durable equipment. Flotation cells, pumps, and tanks are ...

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.
