Studies on the Bacterial Leaching of Low-grada Copper Mlnerals
저품위 동광석의 세균침출에 관한 연구 1
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the proprieties of practical application and possibility of bacterial leaching method to the low copper minerals in Korea. Therfore, ore samples and mine water of the Talsung, Ilkwang, Taekwang, Yongho and Siheung were analyzed chemically, mineralogically, and bacteriologically. The results obtained were as follows ; 1. The range of pH value was 2.6-3.8. 2. Copper contents in ore samples of Talsung and Ilkwang were 0.38% and 0.63%, and those in mine water of Talsung nad ilkwang were 584 .
