Bioleaching review part A: progress in bioleaching: fundamentals and mechanisms of bacterial metal sulfide oxidation.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that the dominance of At. ferrooxidans or Leptospirillum in mesophilic leaching habitats is highly likely to result from differences in their biochemical iron(II) oxidation pathways, especially the involvement of rusticyanin.
