Bioleaching of copper sulphide flotation concentrate in batch reaction system using mesophile and thermophile microorganisms

This work aimed at approaching the use of concentrated mesophile and thermophile microorganisms (moderate and extreme ones) in leaching process of copper sulphides flotation concentrate, containing approximately 30% of bornite (Cu5FeS4) and 70% of chalcopyrite (CuFeS2), for extracting copper. The ob...
