Nickel-bearing ultramafics
Complex sulfide associations combined with reactive magnesium-rich host minerals.
Applications
One fracture platform. Multiple strategic materials.
A feedstock-flexible platform for mineral systems in which liberation, energy, water, waste and carbon management create interconnected challenges.
Primary Resources
Critical-mineral ores
Declining grades and increasingly complex mineral associations require more selective approaches to liberation.
Copper and polymetallic ores
Potential value where target minerals remain locked in hard, complex gangue assemblages.
Potash and industrial minerals
Applications where coarse liberation, low fines and reduced clay entrainment matter.
Secondary Resources
Recover value from what previous processes left behind.
Historic tailings were processed to the technical and economic limits of their time. Many still contain residual critical minerals that could not be economically liberated or recovered.
- Residual metal recovery
- Waste-volume reduction
- Lower-liability material handling
- New secondary resource supply
Yesterday’s waste could become tomorrow’s strategic resource.
Ultramafic Materials
A combined liberation, remediation and mineralization opportunity.
Ultramafic and serpentinized materials can contain nickel, cobalt, chromium and platinum-group elements alongside magnesium-rich minerals capable of reacting with CO₂.
Liberate residual minerals
Expose strategically important metals trapped within a complex silicate matrix.
Investigate fibre transformation
Evaluate whether controlled processing can safely transform hazardous asbestos-bearing mineral forms.
Mineralize process CO₂
Pair fresh surface generation with magnesium- and calcium-rich carbonation chemistry.
The safe transformation of asbestos-bearing materials remains a target application requiring dedicated analytical, toxicological and regulatory validation.
