Biomining Technologies on 3 Continents

"The industrial application of Biomining Technologies is described as a ‘niche technology’, but is it an important one, allowing commercially viable recovery of base and precious metals from sulfide ores at lower grades and generally at lower capital cost than alternatives, and typically with a reduced environmental footprint. This talk will share my personal experience in research and development, and industrial applications of biomining technologies on 3 continents, over the past 40 years."

Location is the Environment and Sustainability Institute (ESI, tall, white building just up the hill from the CSM Museum, turn right at the mini roundabout as you come onto campus, through the barrier, and follow the road right around the end of the ESI. You will see plenty of free parking on the other side).

There will be a guided lab walk-through with refreshments afterwards.
