Through dedicated research and development over the last four years, AgraTech has advanced its capabilities to recover precious metals and is currently scaling for full commercial production, matching several ore resources with specific technologies. Expertise has been achieved through developing both acquired and proprietary technologies using metal in-quarts, chemical catalysts and reagents, and ore fusions.      .
Capabilities:
Production facilities embody the image of modern industry. Clean and efficient, the intensive hard-rock labor of traditional mining is replaced with automated processes and systems. Vertical integration offers control of key operations, including:       .
Assay/Analysis: fully supported by both ICP/OES and AA spectrometers, functions are spread across all aspects of production, including the testing of complex head ore samples (pre-process), solutions or precipitates (in-process), or metals (post-process).      .
Ore Preparation:
proprietary milling micronizes head ores, increasing surface area and facilitating chemical reactions; proprietary leaching of micronized ore concentrates metals in solution, reducing the material to be processed and facilitating metals parting.       .
Metals Parting:
primary tooling and chemical processes at the heart of our proprietary technologies optimize metals recovery from conventional and non-conventional ores.          .
Pre-Refining:
conventional processing and blending of parted metals remove most non- metal content, preparing them for shipment to refineries for final separation and sale.      .
Opportunities.
Acquisition of alternative technologies and ores remains integral to corporate strategy as production costs may be lower or recovery amounts larger; plant needs may differ, using excess capacity or filling production voids; market dynamics may change metals prices or price relationships, altering the profitability of a given metal. AgraTech continues to consider license, venture, or contract relationships with providers of ore resources and technologies. For more information, please Contact Us.      .
