RB 80/00062;Amdel 01333 Heap leaching oxidized ore - Mount Gunson.
Copper extraction in percolation leaching was relatively slow because of the low porosity of the large rocks in the as-ripped ore. To obtain reasonable extraction rates, size reduction will be required. Agitation leaching of ground ore gave copper...-
