Hydrometallurgy, reimagined

We're not running out of copper.
We're running out of technologies to extract it.

Oxide ores dissolve easily. Sulfides don't. They need pyrometallurgy; a far more expensive, carbon-intensive process.

~85%

of copper reserves are sulfides (ICSG)

−40%

Average decline in global ore head grades since the 1990s (IEA)

25%

copper demand-supply gap by 2035, driven by AI datacenters, EVs and energy grids (IEA)

Current technologies are too expensive below a certain grade. Not with ours.

We work with

Sulfides from smelting residuesTailings (also called Mineralized Waste)Low-grade sulfide oresExisting heap leach operationsQuarry rocks

The process

Acid-free chemistry that recovers metals and locks away CO₂

A novel non-acid chemical solution that works with your existing SX-EW, smelting or metal precipitation infrastructure.
