BacTech's core technology, called "bioleaching", employs naturally-occurring bacteria, harmless to both humans and the environment, to oxidize the sulphide materials left behind after years of mining. The tailings may contain ores and related materials contaminated by arsenic and other substances that are poisonous to humans and animals, as well as harmful to the local environment. The sulphides in the tailings react (oxidize) with the atmosphere to create an acidic solution called acid mine drainage (AMD), which! leaches into the surrounding area over time. BacTech's bioleaching process can stabilize these toxins from minerals and prevent additional harmful AMD. The technology provides a "Garden of Eden" environment for the bacteria to thrive and multiply and permits them to achieve in 6 days what would normally take 20 years to occur naturally. Why NOW is the Time for a Permanent Solution The worldwide contamination caused by abandoned mines is so widespread that it is neither quantified nor fully evaluated
