Super Copper Corp. demonstrates basic copper recovery process in São Paulo
What happened
Super Copper Corp. released findings from the first demonstration of its CUPRIX copper-recovery and water-treatment biopolymer formulation, which was developed by MetaFLO technologies. The test, conducted at the laboratory in São Paulo, Brazil, showed that CUPRIX could capture copper from a solution and separate it as a recoverable solid. The demonstration was qualitative and did not establish copper recovery percentage, purity, selectivity, reagent consumption, cost, or commercial performance.
Why it matters
The successful demonstration of the basic CUPRIX process concept suggests an opportunity to capture copper from solutions and advance it toward a metallic product. Super Copper Corp.'s CEO stated that the program represents an opportunity to build something that could ultimately extend beyond a single project or deposit.
