Biostimulation as a sustainable solution for acid neutralization and uranium immobilization post acidic in-situ recovery

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Pierre Rossi, Thomas Coral

Major uranium (U) deposits worldwide are exploited by acid leaching, known as 'in-situ recovery' (ISR). ISR involves the injection of an acid fluid into ore-bearing aquifers and the pumping of the resulting metal-containing solution through cation exchange ...

The impacts of acidic in-situ recovery of uranium in southern Kazakhstan on geochemistry and microbial community structure

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Pierre Rossi, Brian Carl Reinsch

Acidic in situ recovery (ISR) of uranium is utilized because of its potential to be much cleaner than traditional physical mining techniques. Instead of spreading uranium-laden waste rock across soil, ISR circulates acid below the surface of the Earth with ...
