Control of iron and sulfur oxidation activities of Thiobacillus ferrooxidans and bacterial leaching of metals from sulfide ores

'Thiobacillus ferrooxidans' is a dominant member of the bioleaching community responsible for mineral solubilization. In order to capitalize on its natural ability to solubilize metal sulfides this study began with a detailed analysis of the bacteria's iron and sulfur oxidation pathw...
