To convert a signed binary int to a decimal number, use the following algorithm. We illustrate the algorithm on two four-bit examples: 1110 and 0101. If the leftmost bit is a 1, the number is negative. Do the following... (1110 starts with a 1.
Copper pyrites is a common name for the mineral chalcopyrite, which has a formula CuFeS2. It can be considered to be made up of Cu+ Fe3+ S2- ions but there is covalent character.
This review outlines current research in heap bioleaching, particularly in respect of the bioleaching of chalcopyrite, assesses the status of the bioprocessing of copper sulphides and evaluates promising developments.
