1 What do all of these have in common??
They are all made of copper…. A VERY USEFUL METAL What do all of these have in common??

2 Describe how to extract copper by smelting (C)
Lesson Objectives: Describe how to extract copper by smelting (C) Explain why low-grade ores are now being exploited. (C) Explain two methods for extracting copper from low-grade ores. (B-A) Evaluate the different methods of copper extraction (A*) Key Words: Smelting Extracting Electrolysis Bioleaching Phytomining Displace Native Metal Low-grade ore Lesson Outcomes: ‘What do all the images have in common’ – Starter Active Listening Task – phytomining and bioleaching (C-B) Story board explaining phytomining (A) Exam style questions (C-A) Plenary – summaries copper extraction in one sentence Context: Earth Scientisits

21 Task: Active Reading - Bioleaching
Key Words: Smelting Extracting Electrolysis Bioleaching Phytomining Displace Native Metal Low-grade ores High-grade ores Economical Bioleaching factsheet and questions Bioleaching is the extraction of specific metals from their ores through the use of bacteria. They do this by producing leachate solutions that contain the metal compounds. A leachate is simply the solution we get when a liquid passes through an organism. It can therefore be used to extract copper from its ore in a relatively clean process. Bacteria are usually used in the process. Bioleaching is very economical as it is very simple. This makes it quite a cheap process. It is also environmentally friendly, unlike traditional methods of extracting copper, where several damaging gases such as carbon dioxide and sulphur dioxide are produced during smelting. Bioleaching can be used on ores that are poor in quality (otherwise known as low grade ores). This is important because high grade ores are limited in their availability. The process does have some problems however. The process is very slow compared to smelting. There are also some toxic chemicals produced which are harmful to the environment. Also, the efficiency by which the bacteria convert the copper ore into copper metal is very low, so there is a lot of waste. Outcomes: Active Reading - bioleaching
