Carbon-Assisted Bioleaching of Chalcopyrite and Three Chalcopyrite/Enargite-Bearing Complex Concentrates

Carbon-Assisted Bioleaching of Chalcopyrite and Three Chalcopyrite/Enargite-Bearing Complex Concentrates

Overcoming the slow-leaching kinetics of refractory primary copper sulfides is crucial to secure future copper sources. Here, the effect of carbon was investigated as a catalyst for a bioleaching reaction. First, the mechanism of carbon-assisted bioleaching was elucidated using the model chalcopyrit...
