    GeoBiotics, LLC has developed and patented a method of biooxidizing or bioleaching sulphide ores and concentrates in an engineered heap environment. Process offers significant cost advantages over the established processes: roasting, pressure oxidation, and agitated tank biooxidation. Process is particularly suited to the treatment of "dirty" concentrate and allows the on-site production of metals at small or remote deposits.

    The GEOCOAT® Process.

    GeoBiotics, LLC (GBL) has developed and patented a method of biooxidizing or bioleaching
    sulphide ores and concentrates in an engineered heap environment. GBL’s GEOCOAT 
    technology offers a unique approach to the application of bacterial oxidation processes,
    combining the low capital and operating costs of heap leaching with the high recoveries obtained
    in agitated tank reactors. Both heap leaching and stirred tank biooxidation are accepted in the
    minerals industry and are in commercial operation worldwide.

    In the GEOCOAT  process,


    sulphide flotation or gravity
    concentrate slurry is coated onto a
    crushed and sized carrier rock
    which may be barren or may
    contain sulfide or oxide mineral
    values. The coated material is
    stacked on an impervious pad for
    biooxidation. The process is
    applicable to the biooxidation of
    refractory sulphide gold
    concentrates and to the
    bioleaching of copper, nickel,
    cobalt, zinc, and polymetallic
    base metal concentrates.
    AGC GEOCOAT Pilot Plant Mesophilic bacteria are typically
    used, except for the processing of
    chalcopyrite concentrates, where the higher temperatures associated with the use of thermophile
    microorganisms have proven highly beneficial in increasing the rate and extent of copper
    leaching.

    In the processing of refractory gold sulphide concentrates, the GEOCOAT  process offers
    significant cost advantages over the established processes: roasting, pressure oxidation, and
    agitated tank biooxidation. In base metals operations, the GEOCOAT  process is particularly
    suited to the treatment of “dirty” concentrate and allows the on-site production of metals at small
    or remote deposits. The process is simple, robust, and ideally suited to operation in remote
    locations.
