Mangrove Lithium, based in Vancouver, has developed a modular and scalable refining technology for the efficient production of battery-grade lithium hydroxide and carbonate from a variety of input streams. This innovative platform allows for the direct conversion of lithium chloride and lithium sulfate into high-quality lithium products. The technology can be adapted to different capacities and is designed to be co-located with upstream lithium producers, as well as cathode and cell manufacturers. Additionally, Mangrove’s platform is being commercialized for the conversion of waste brines into valuable chemicals and desalinated water, contributing to more sustainable practices in the lithium supply chain.

Jetti Resources is a company based in Vancouver, Canada, that specializes in developing hydrometallurgical technology for the extraction of metals from mineral ores. Founded in 2014, Jetti focuses primarily on extracting copper from low-grade primary sulfides, including chalcopyrite, which is the most abundant copper mineral ore. The company has developed a proprietary catalytic technology that enhances copper recovery from vast quantities of ore, addressing significant challenges in mineral processing. This technology integrates with existing heap leaching methods and downstream operations, allowing industrial clients to improve copper yields in a cost-effective and environmentally sustainable manner. Additionally, Jetti's technology is applicable for the extraction of zinc and nickel from sulfide ores, further diversifying its capabilities in mineral processing.
