Extraction of metallic ions by use of mixtures of water and ILs, possibly completed by mineral acids, salts and/or extracting agents, and leading to ionic-liquid-aqueous biphasic systems (IL-ABS), are critically reviewed. In this chapter, the extraction performance induced by temperature or concentration stimulus is considered. First, the IL-ABS basic physico-chemical properties are recalled, highlighting those of interest to metal extraction. Then, the main results are presented and discussed for systems ordered and categorized by IL types. Various extensions of the notion of IL-ABS are given and briefly discussed as an advocacy in favor of a continuous line between "real" ABS comprising ILs and other liquid-liquid extraction systems including one IL.
