Read MoreFeb 19, 2018 The higher the degree of oxidation of pyrite, the higher is the extraction recovery of gold and silver. However, about 74% bio-oxidation of pyrite was enough to increase the cyanide extraction recovery of gold and silver to 89% and 95% respectively. Use of 12 weeks adapted bacteria virtually eliminates the lag period for bacterial activity.

Read MoreBiomining is the technique of extracting metals from ores and other solid materials typically using prokaryotes, fungi or plants (phytoextraction also known as phytomining or biomining). These organisms secrete different organic compounds that chelate metals from the environment and bring it back to the cell where they are typically used to coordinate electrons.
Read MoreGold from seawater? Yes, it is possible and there is plenty there. With gold prices over $1000 an ounce, then the pressure is on to develop economical methods of extraction. There are bacteria which are used in gold ore refining, and bacteria which can possibly extract it from seawater, where gold concentrations are higher in parts of the deep ocean.
