Oct 06 2020 Several efforts are underway to extract gold and copper from tailings. Reprocessing mine tailings may also have environmental benefits. A recent project described in Mining is a series of experiments carried out by an international group of scientists to produce approximately 30 years of passive carbonation of mine tailings within four weeks.
