Tank Bioleaching | SpringerLink
Tank Bioleaching. It is the method of bioleaching by mixing or standing small particles of ore or secondary resources in the leaching tank. It is mainly used for bio-oxidation pretreatment and metal leaching of refractory flotation concentrates of precious metal (gold) and base metal (copper, cobalt, nickel, and zinc).

In situ leaching of copper: Challenges and future prospects
1. Introduction. In situ leaching (ISL) is the circulation of a fluid through an ore deposit to dissolve a target metal or mineral, with subsequent return of the liquor to the surface for processing. In some cases, lixiviant is applied to formations using a system of injection and recovery wells (see Fig. 1 ).

Method of Heap Leaching of Copper from Off-Balance Ore …
Copper is leached with mine water. Water from the mine is first sent to the settling tanks, then to pyrite filters to produce divalent iron, and only then to cementation for the incomplete removal of copper. After passing the heaps, the solutions are sent again for cementation. Copper recovery is about 80%.
