Nickel phytomining operations Nickel phytomining operations consist of growing selected hyperaccumulator plant species ('metal crops') on Ni-rich (ultramafic) soils, followed by harvesting and incineration of the biomass to produce a 'bio-ore' from which Ni salts or Ni metal may be recovered (Anderson et al. 1999; Chaney et al. 1998 ...
Phytomining describes the production of a metal crop by using high-biomass plants, which are plants that produce energy or a usable resource when burned. Phytominers cultivate crops of a specific plant species with high concentrations of a desired metal, harvest the plant and deliver it to a furnace to burn and gather its bio-ore. ...

To reap the maximum potential of both soil and plant cultivation yields from chosen metal crop, it is necessary to draw conclusions from lab and field tests (Bani et al. 2015; Robinson et al. 2003).In the practice of phytomining, mainly metalliferous plants are used to obtained metals from toxic soils and then either processed into pure metals or kept in the secure facilities …
Recycling of mine waste, which includes mine tailing, sewage, sludge, and soil that are converted into valuable products. In Phytomining, the plant that has high biomass causes high-cost profit, and it accumulates a large quantity of metal. Phytomining is fast and relatively cheaper in comparison to other recycling methods of mine waste .

In large scale applications of phytomining the potential energy stored can be utilized to generate thermal energy. Restoration of vegetation cover can fulfill the objectives of stabilization and accelerate ecological succession (Wong, 2003). Phytomining involves plants that are cheap and renewable resources. Also, source of energy is mostly solar.
However, in phytomining, the primary purpose of growing plants is to recover economically valuable elements from low-grade ores or opencast mines (Dinh et al., 2022). Phytomining is advantageous over conventional mining practices and is highly recommended for repurposing end-of-life mines that are no longer economically viable.
