Abstract
The significant increase in economic concern and environmental restrictions has resulted in increasing interest in biotechnological solutions. The application of acidophilic, sulfur-oxidizing microorganisms in biomining and in the treatment of waste matrices has been extensively explored. However, to surmount the current challenges encountered by the industrial use of acidophiles, there is an opportunity for neutrophilic and alkaliphilic microorganisms to be comprehensively considered for the biooxidation of refractory sulfide materials. This review, for the first time, provides a detailed study of neutrophiles and alkaliphiles that have potential for oxidizing sulfur-containing wastes and sulfide refractory ores to recover entrapped metals especially gold in a sustainable manner. The study illustrates the applicability of neutrophilic and alkaliphilic microorganisms to provide better and sustainable alternatives for the recovery of metals from wastes from various sources as well as refractory materials. The microorganisms summarized in this review have been successfully used in oxidizing different sulfide sources by achieving high oxidizing efficiencies (>80%) in numerous technologies. The fundamentals of biooxidation along with possible mechanisms involved in the biooxidation have been discussed in detail.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
