Small adjustments
Cleared up some language, because it was a bit confusing. Also added a source and noted leaching's use in extracting rare earth elements.Geghk8 (talk) 17:42, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Added a link to the Kelvin page for consistency, as the same line where Pascals are mentioned, there is a link to that, but not for Kelvins. Also added a link to lanthanides. --Sustainavaleity (talk) 19:23, 1 March 2024 (UTC)

I am moving around some of the paragraphs Geghk8 (talk) 04:25, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

I am adding some images where appropriate. --Sustainavaleity (talk) 13:16, 5 May 2024 (UTC)

Adding History Section
Beginning to add a history section and populating it with information. Will also be adding to the references. Sustainavaleity (talk) 16:29, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

Today I am adding additional historical context of leaching, and its early uses.Geghk8 (talk) 01:18, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

Added an image. --Sustainavaleity (talk) 17:07, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

Added significantly more information, especially relating to Pre-World War I and Modern leaching history. Please feel free to rearrange and restructure as needed. --Sustainavaleity (talk) 17:38, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

Continuing to add more leaching history. --Sustainavaleity (talk) 16:20, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

Adding more details about the Russel process today, as well as 2 more sources. Geghk8 (talk) 16:53, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

Lead and Chemistry Sections
I'd love if someone could redo the lead and Chemistry Sections of this article. There's some unverifiable information that could use sources, and it should be clarified that pressure leaching is only *one* of the processes of leaching. Sustainavaleity (talk) 18:24, 8 May 2024 (UTC)
