| Summary: | This thesis contributes to the bioleaching knowledge base by improved understanding of the relationships between hydrodynamics and micro-organism-ore contacting and colonisation through an integrated study of microbiological and hydrological aspects of heap bioleaching within systems that mimic actual bio-heap environments. |
