Read More2023.3.21 Figures. The climate crisis and rising demand for critical minerals necessitate the development of novel carbon dioxide removal and ore processing technologies. Microbial processes can be harnessed to
Read More1992.1.4 These bacteria live by oxidising the sulphur that binds copper, zinc, lead and uranium into their respective sulphide minerals. This releases the valuable metal.
