Turns valves to feed chemicals, for example cyanide or acid, into tank of ground ore or filtered slime. Starts mechanical agitators and observes percolation of solution to ascertain dissolution of ore. Tests solution with hydrometer to determine degree of ore concentration. Obtains sample of solution for laboratory analysis. May also supervise workers in loading and excavating leaching tanks. May also tend filtering machine to separate fluids from metal. May also tend pumps to force ground ore and solution into or from tanks. May also lubricate equipment and clean tank with water hose.
