Abstract

Various types of fungi have been isolated from Indian mine water samples and the leaching of oxidised copper and lead-zinc ores by these species investigated. Metal dissolution characteristics with respect to one specific type of fungi, viz. Aspergillus niger, are illustrated. The effects of pH, pulp density and carbon source on the fungal activity are also reported.
