Next Generation Recovery

Valorize low-grade ores with LithX—advanced chelation technology for critical metals recovery from heaps, tailings, and complex mineralogy

Recover more from heaps, tailings, and low-grade ores across critical minerals

LithX Cu

Target chalcopyrite, transition ores, and more with advanced chelation chemistry designed for complex copper mineralogy.

LithX enhances copper dissolution by disrupting passivation layers that limit recovery from chalcopyrite and mixed oxide-sulfide ores. The technology also improves performance on high acid-consuming and transition ores with mixed oxide-sulfide mineralogy.

Environmentally Friendly

Drop-In Solution

Powerful, versatile chemistry that seamlessly integrates into existing infrastructure

Heap Leaching

Our chelation technology enhances heap leach operations by improving metal dissolution rates and recovery from low-grade ores. The chemistry works effectively across a wide range of ore types and pH conditions, making it suitable for diverse mining operations.

In-Situ Recovery

In-situ recovery using LithX chemistry enables metal extraction directly from ore deposits through controlled injection and recovery wells. This approach minimizes surface disturbance while accessing resources that would be uneconomical with conventional mining.
