1. A method for the heap leaching of manganese-containing ores, the method characterised by the steps of: (i) beneficiating the manganese-containing ore and separating into a coarse fraction and a fine ore fraction; (ii) combining the fine ore fraction with a sulfide ore material to produce a combined ore fraction; (iii) stacking the combined ore fraction to form at least one heap; and (iv) applying a lixiviant to the heap to produce a pregnant leach solution (PLS) containing dissolved manganese values, wherein the lixiviant is added to the or each heap in the presence of soluble iron. |
