Abstract

BioteQ Environmental Technologies has successfully demonstrated in industrial plants that biogenic sulphide reagent can be generated cost- effectively and used to win metals such as copper, zinc and nickel from low-grade leach solutions and waste water. The BioSulphide process is used to recover Zn-Cu-Cd at the Caribou mine, New Brunswick, Cu at the Bisbee project, Copper Queen mine, Arizona, and is to be used to recover Cu at Dexing mine, Jiangxi. New applications are to recover Cu from Au cyanide in the SART process, regenerating the cyanide, and possibly to replace sodium hydrosulphide in flotation of Cu from Mo.<br />BioteQ Environmental Technologies has successfully demonstrated in industrial plants that biogenic sulphide reagent can be generated cost- effectively and used to win metals such as copper, zinc and nickel from low-grade leach solutions and waste water.
