Take this article for example; http://news.nationalgeographic.com/n...ia-mining.html where Tom Hornyak reported in November 2008 in National Geographic magazine that bioleaching, the process where microbes use metal oxides to breathe rock in the absence of air, and excrete the metals in the rock, are used to extract 20% of the world's copper in 2008 - and will be responsible for 100,000 tons per year production in a South American copper mine in the coming years. |

Nowhere, because they DO NOT EXIST yet. Bacteria that dissolve rock and plate containers with gold and copper on demand are already recovering copper and gold from copper mine tailings and spent copper mines today. http://news.nationalgeographic.com/n...ia-mining.html Bacteria can't mine asteroids you ignorant git. I think its funny people who don't know that bacteria can breathe rock by dissolving oxides in vacuo call others who post here 'ignorant'. LOL! The facts are that bacteria survive handily in space, and in vacuum by infesting any bit of metal oxide that happens to be around. This includes metal oxides in ore bodies. The metals they excrete, after concentrating them. This is how gold veins and copper veins get deposited in solid rock deep underground away from air. It is being ACTIVELY developed today to MINE ASTEROIDS! LOL. Cite for these bacteria surviving and doing this in vacuum? https://www.academia.edu/26099266/Bi...from_asteroids Read Section 3 and then STFU. Cellular respiration has been documented in microbes that live INSIDE ROCKS REMOVED FROM THE ATMOSPHERE. Here they take metal oxides and reduce those oxides to elemental metals which they excrete. http://www.pnnl.gov/news/release.aspx?id=976 Lab experiment that didn't even actually use real bacteria. snip remainder I'm bored with knocking down your bull**** cites of research papers, Mookie. Even your own cites don't support what you claim and spewing volumes of them does nothing to strengthen your case. -- "Ordinarily he is insane.
