What is Involved in ISR Mining? EnviroCopper
Traditionally, ISR mining for copper, gold and uranium have all used a weak acid solution (sulphuric acid). However they have often been ineffective in extracting copper and gold. Recent research by CSIRO and Curtin University has uncovered new developments in benign lixiviant technology, now enabling the effective application of environmentally friendly ISR to a much broader array of metals.
