ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed an improved system method for in situ extraction of mineral values from subterranean deposits of ores of the oxide; carbonate; sulphide, or other type ores which contain sought-for metal values and which evolve gas when reacted with suitable chemicals in solution and/or gaseous form. The invention is particularly applicable to in situ mining of the previously found types of copper, nickel, manganese, etc. oxide, carbonate, and sulphide ores and the like; and especially features conservation of energy which otherwise would be wasted.
