I am a director of a private mining company based in Australia. We are looking into the possibility of extracting minerals from polymetallic ore bodies via a bio technique which could cut costs and time instead of the traditional methods of mineral leaching or floatation.

The main ore body contains Fe with payable grades of Nickel, Chromium, Cobalt and Vanadium. The Fe content is about 52-58% that can be extracted by a magnetic separator, but we want to extract all the payable minerals if possible.

Can anyone put me in touch with companies or people who may be able to help us.

Regards,
