Conventional uranium mining involves removing uranium ore from the ground. In contrast, in-situ leaching (ISL), also known as in-situ recovery (ISR), leaves uranium ore in the ground, and recovers the uranium by dissolving the uranium-bearing minerals and subsequent pumping of the uranium-containing solution to the surface.

This would only further limit uranium leaching, so the CO2 + O2 approach is used for laboratory and field leaching tests. To date, in-situ leach uranium mining by injecting an H2SO4 + H2O2 solution is the universal technique in China (Tan et al., 2014). However, this technique is not environment-friendly (Ji et al., 2018).
