“…An unnamed Russian first suggested ISL mining of gold as early as 1896 (Mineev and Shutov, 1979, Morris, 1984and Mudd, 2001b. Utah International acquired leases in the Shirley Basin of Wyoming in 1958 with a view to exploiting uranium deposits with a high strip ratio located under the water table in a large aquifer.…”

This white paper summarizes the state of art of in-situ leaching of metals and minerals, and describes a new technology concept employing improved fragmentation of ores underground in order to prepare the ore for more efficient in-situ leaching, combined with technology to continuously improve solution flow patterns through the ore during the leaching process. The process parameters and economic benefits of combining the new concept with chemical and biological leaching are described. A summary is provided of the next steps required to demonstrate the technology with the goal of enabling more widespread use of in-situ leaching.3
