Identification of microorganisms at different times in a bioleaching process for the recovery of gold and silver from minerals in oxide form
In this study, gold and silver were recovered through a bioleaching process conducted at room temperature over 11 days. Native bacteria and varying ratios of mineral pulp to culture medium (20/80, 37.5/62.5, and 50/50 %) from a mining operation in Zacatecas, Mexico, were evaluated. The mineral was c...
