Abstract: An apparatus system and method are provided for use in acquiring data from fluid within a region of material in a heap leaching application. The apparatus includes one or more sensor strings provided in a region of material to be analysed. Each sensor string includes a data cable and two or more solid-state sensors positioned along the length of the data cable. The sensors are adapted to periodically acquire sensor data relating to chemical properties of the fluid surrounding the sensor over a predetermined period of time and to transmit the sensor data via the data cable to one or more hubs.
