Abstract
Artificial fracture stimulation in host rock formations is a potential technique to improve the recovery efficiency of in-situ leaching mining applications, which is gradually creeping in as an alternative mining method for mineral extraction in low-grade ore deposits. In this study, we report two new methods of fracture stimulation by injecting a modified Soundless Cracking Demolition Agent (SCDA) into a target rock through an injection well as...
