Metalox is the ONLY metallurgical method that 100% integrates into the green, zero-carbon future. Our next project will use Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) to make process heat and green hydrogen (from which the catalyst and downstream chemicals can be made, using only air and water) to process concentrates.
We plan to offer the world's first source of green metals and green fertilizers with zero liquid discharge, zero emissions, and zero GHG! All the naturally-ocurring chemicals used in the Metalox method can be made directly from air and water. We basically use chemical processes found in nature--but accelerated a thousand times, using a natural catalyst that we have learned to control--to convert complex sulfide mineral concentrates into value-added metals and metal compounds with a world-wide market.
- Our digestion reaction is the fastest known to science--only 6 minutes from solid concentrate to total dissolution and a mass reduction of 93%, depending on the concentrate.
- Other methods take hours or days with only 60% mass reduction, or less.
- Other methods produce mountains of waste--our method is zero-emissions.
If you are a decision-maker at a mining company making sulfide concentrates, you are invited to see the most powerful hydrometallurgical method ever developed with your own eyes. Your company could become fully integrated from mine to metal.
