What is Continuous Vat Leaching for Copper about?

The document summarizes the first copper pilot trials using continuous vat leaching. It describes how the process works using intermittent fluidization to achieve leaching kinetics comparable to agitated tanks at lower cost. Bottle roll and column tests on a copper ore sample in Chile achieved 78% recovery in 72 hours using dilute sulfuric acid leaching. A 15 tonne pilot plant test at SGS Lakefield Research successfully ran for 10 days continuously producing copper cathode and validating the process for ind
