Please use the words below to fill in the correct boxes to describe the process of phytomining.

Large scale extraction of minerals (metal compounds) from the earth to make metals using traditional mining techniques is only cost effective when there are high concentrations of the mineral in the ground. We call such a mineral, a ___________________ .
When there are only small amounts of mineral in the ground, called a __________________ , then a process called ________________ , involving growing plants, is economic to use.
Plants called ______________________ are grown in soil containing the low grade ore minerals. They absorb the minerals via their __________ and what they don't use is stored and _________________ in their leaves. When the plants are big enough, they are __________ in air and the impure metal compound is found in the ________ .
Chemical processes such as _________________ and _________________ are used to then purify the metal from the ash.
Decide which of these are bioleaching or phytomining
Extracts metals from slag heaps, contaminated ground and low grade ore
This process is made more efficient by controlling conditions such as pH, temperature and humidity
Use active transport to move metal ions from soil into roots
Involves plants
Involves bacteria
Combustion and displacement reactions involved
Some organisms involved use chemosynthesis to produce sugars
This method takes a long time - up to 2 years
