Bioleaching is an established technology for the treatment of refractory gold ores and concentrates. The bioleaching of sulphide minerals is a complex process in which bacterial and chemical oxidation processes occur simultaneously. Recent studies has provided convincing evidence that the bioleaching of pyrite occurs via a two-step mechanism (Boon, 1996). 2014-07-31T11:09:19Z 2014-07-31T11:09:19Z 2002 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/5313 eng application/pdf Centre for Bioprocess Engineering Research Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town
