Surface mining and quarrying starts with vegetation and soil removal and consequent excavation at the surface, whereas underground mining involves the excavation of galleries until the mineral deposit is reached ( Clemente et al., 2004; ELAW, 2010 ). Although underground mining can be considered less damaging, significant soil degradation and ...

Mineral Processing. S.K. Haldar, in Mineral Exploration, 2013. 12.5.1 Leaching. Leaching is a process that extracts metals directly from the low-grade ores (LGOs), often in the oxide form and rejects accumulated in old tailing pads. This is a slow process and can take several months for metal extraction. Many a time leaching is economically ...
