ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to an improved method for the solution mining of a mineral from a subterranean formation. More specifically, the invention relates to an improved method which enhances significantly the recovery of a mineral from a subterranean formation via solution mining by increasing the rate of reactant flow through the formation via improved formation permeability and thereby reducing the time necessary to recover the mineral values therefrom.
