Thiobacillus Ferrooxidans
This exceptional bacterium plays a dual role in both bio-mining and agriculture. In bio-mining, Thiobacillus Ferrooxidans has the unique ability to oxidize ferrous iron and sulfide minerals, contributing to the eco-friendly extraction of valuable metals from ores. In agriculture, this bacterium, in synergy with Mycorrhizal Fungi, assists in the mobilization of sulfur and iron, two essential nutrients for plant growth. By converting these elements into forms that plants can readily absorb, Thiobacillus Ferrooxidans and Mycorrhizal Fungi improve crop health and yield while promoting sustainable farming practices.
