Biomining of lunar regolith simulant EAC-1 A with the fungus Penicillium simplicissimum

Abstract Background On a future lunar habitat, acquiring needed resources in situ will inevitably come from the Lunar regolith. Biomining, i.e. the use of microorganisms to extract metals from the regolith, is sustainable and energy-efficient, making it highly promising for space exploration applica...
