Chuck; More time to wait. I assume that the results are full CoC with Bateman? In that case it is an exercise in leach optimisation of uncertain duration or outcome. If thet get a leach with good recovery and low cost there seems to be sufficient value for a low cost heap leach process. There does not seem to be enough for an autoclave process BEMA style. There might be some chance for a microwave enhanced situation, where the microwaves are preferentially absorbed by metals and other high conductors and if the intensity is high they explode like popcorn(?), or at least dramatically enhance the surface area, and thus make leaching easier. SInce the inert and non cunducting particles do not dissipate the microwave energy it is not wasted on them. Lots of food for research.
