ABSTRACT:
A method of increasing recovery of mineral and metals during in-situ chemical leaching of earth material by injection of a treating fluid which comprises cationic, organic polymers which are made up of long chain hydrocarbon molecules of very great molecular weight (in excess of 1000 and as great as 1,000,000). Maintaining clays in a flocculated state and preventing the formation of colloidal particles improves permeability during chemical leaching of clay bearing earth materials.
