  • Received: 02 July 2016 Accepted: 15 August 2016 Published: 17 August 2016
  • Microbes are key components of the structure and function of bioleaching process. Increasing consciousness of the role of microbes has led to a quick growth of descriptive and investigational studies of their abundance and activities. However, the detail information of complex functional molecules contain in promising microbes which are very important for understanding microbial processes in bioleaching, are lacking. Therefore, molecular functions of microbes in the bioleaching process are very essential to understand about the microbial activities, especially in the process of the extraction of metals in mineral industries. In this review, the current state of proteomics and genomics of bioleaching in metals extraction processes and the major developments of these analytical methods at industrial scales are highlighted.
