Utilisation of native microbes from a spent chalcocite test heap
A variety of acidophilic iron and/or sulphur-oxidising microbes capable of growth on several substrates (chalcopyrite, pyrite, ferrous ion, sulphur, glucose) in the range 30?60 C were recovered from a spent chalcocite/chalcopyrite/pyrite heap. Several isolates exhibited tolerance to salt, up to 5 g/...
