Cobalt represents a prime example of a critical mineral resource. Cobalt is primarily used in cathodes for rechargeable batteries and in superalloys for jet turbine engines. Most cobalt is mined as a byproduct of copper or nickel, and recently cobalt prices have increased due to strong demand and limited availability.
As for the other metals, nickel and cobalt resistance systems have been mainly studied in Synechocystis (Figure 2). The genes involved in the resistance to these two metals are part of a metal-regulated gene cluster involved in resistance against zinc, copper, cobalt and nickel [28,29,31,32].
The extraction of copper, nickel, and cobalt were among the highest recorded in the test program at 96.0%, 99.1%, and 92.8%, respectively. However, the nodule addition rate was much slower, indicating the reduction of cupric was slower under the test conditions.
