Catalyst Resource Inc. (OTCQB: CATA) is a precious metals recovery and technologies company utilizing three proprietary extraction technologies to exploit a number of opportunities. Through an exclusive agreement with Rerun Recovery Inc., the company will utilize the firm’s technologies to develop two of its mines in Alaska and Oregon and will be entitled to 70% of the net profits generated.
The Beluga Alaska mine is a 160 acre property – with an option to purchase an additional 46,080 acres – located 60 miles from Anchorage, Alaska. With a solid infrastructure for mining activity and strong prospects, the company’s initial results have tested positive for significantly higher quantities of rhodium, palladium and gold than usual. Meanwhile, the second mine is located near Granite, Grant County, Oregon.
Breakthrough Technology Enhances Recovery
Originally developed by renowned green technology inventor Wilmot McClutchen, owner of Vorsana, Catalyst Resource will utilize breakthrough technologies designed to dramatically enhance mineral recovery rates. According to a recent press release, the proprietary recovery system could increase recovery rates up to 10,000% more than traditional methods.
At the heart of the portfolio, the Vorsana Tri-Phase Separator is an inexpensive and easily scalable mechanical device that separates solids from liquids without the use of heat, chemicals or dead-end filters. The technology is based on radial counterflow principals, which involve the use of mechanically-induced vortices to separate lighter fractions of fluids or gases from heavier ones.
Using the same basic principles, the Vorsana Gas Scrubber provides continuous separation of gaseous components emitted from chemical leach tanks and other precious metal processes that emit toxic or environmentally-sensitive gases.
With these two technologies combined, the company’s mines under development will be far more environmentally-friendly and remarkably cost-effective to operate than traditional mines.
Joint Venture and Licensing Potential Ahead
Under the terms of its agreement with Rerun Recovery, Catalyst Resource also has the ability to form additional joint ventures in conjunction with Rerun Recovery and license the technologies. According to a recent press release, “the company intends to form several joint ventures with other mine properties and start to license out its patented separation process to other mining, processing, recovery and refining operations around the world.”
Joint ventures that involve other companies taking on the majority of the development costs could result in significantly higher-margin revenues and bottom-line results moving forward. As a result, Catalyst Resource Inc. (OTCQB: CATA) is one emerging opportunity that energy and mining investors may want to consider moving forward.
