Evaluation of the Effect of Temperature on the Ore Leaching Process Relevance

The optimum temperature for the process of the bacterial-chemical method of leaching gold from the Bolshevik ore deposit was chosen in the paper given. As a result of the study, it was established that the maximum extraction of gold in the solution does not depend on increasing the temperature of the leachable medium (40 ̊C). Temperature range from 20 to 30 ̊C, which is considered optimal for the growth and development of acidophilic cultures of bacteria, is sufficient.
