probably many other factors.

Yep! The question "what is the best method to leach ore" is akin to asking how big is a rock?

Much more must be known before anyone can lend a useful thought. Some ores do not lend themselves to leaching---and some may require cyanide--something that is generally beyond the ability of the common man, not only because it is difficult to procure, but requires one to jump through a myriad of hoops to satisfy the government.

Ores, in general, are typically beyond consideration for the back yard processor. If you have an ore that is worth the effort, you would be a very fortunate individual.

Please take note----in the past couple years, we've had a few people come on the board and talk about their "high grade" ores. Note that none of them are still here, talking about what they thought they had. Rarely will a person find commercially viable deposits of metals. You have a much better chance of getting hit by lightning.

The ore consist of decomposed to broken granite and quartz. I am able to mill down to 100mesh.
What does an assay show as regards to values?
