Abstract

This, the 9th International Symposium on Biohydrometallurgy (Biohydromet -18), is organised by MEI with Prof Sue Harrison, Dr Patrick d-Hugues and Dr Chris Bryan. Biohydromet -18 will focus on the latest developments in the field of biohydrometallurgy: the development, optimisation and application of integrated biomining process operations for mineral ores, including low grade and complex ores; the microbiology of biomining and the application of biohydrometallurgy to novel resources (such as mine and electronic wastes) and the (bio)remediation of mining-impacted environments.
