Nitrate-Dependent, pH Neutral Bioleaching of Ni from an Ultramafic Concentrate

This study explores the possibility of utilizing bioleaching techniques for nickel extraction from a mixed sulfide ore deposit with high magnesium content. Due to the ultramafic nature of this material, well-studied bioleaching technologies, which rely on acidophilic bacteria, will lead to undesirab...
