Towards Bioleaching of a Vanadium Containing Magnetite for Metal Recovery

Vanadium – a transition metal – is found in the ferrous-ferric mineral, magnetite. Vanadium has many industrial applications, such as in the production of high-strength low-alloy steels, and its increasing global industrial consumption requires new primary sources. Bioleaching is a biotechnological...
