Why is it important?
This work stands important to eliminate use of high temperature and high acid needs
Perspectives
Developing a cost-effective, environmentally friendly process to extract valuable metals from monazite, an economically important mineral is the crux of this work. Therefore, the present study deals with the bioleaching activity of A. niger on monazite minerals to extract metal constituents of Ce, Th, and U and optimizing the microbial growth as well as leaching parameters. We wish to taken it forward in a big way and of course commercially
