Talk:Bioleaching

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

There used to be an article Thiobacillus thio-oxidans. Its entire content was "cu"; it had no history and so no non-vandalized versions, and so I deleted it. If someone here is competent to write about the subject, please do.  :-) Koyaanis Qatsi, Saturday, March 30, 2002


I find the description of the process rather confusing; it first deals with copper, then shows a totally different example, dealing with arsenopyrite, and finishes off saying "The gold is now separated from the ore and in solution." - someone should make it a bit clearer!

In general,the gold ores mixed with pyrite and arsenopyrite. After pyrite and arsenopyrite oxidized by bacteria, the gold particle is separated from the ore.[macromath],Thursday, Dec 28, 2006
