Goethite dissolution by acidophilic bacteria

Previous studies have reported the role of some species of acidophilic bacteria in accelerating the dissolution of goethite under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. This has relevance for environments impacted by acid mine drainage and for the potential bioleaching of limonitic laterite ores. In this...
