Granite Creek Copper's Innovative Venture in Ultramafic Technology for Sustainable Resource Extraction
Key Ideas
  • The project at the Star Ni-Cu-PGE site aims to extract nickel, copper, cobalt, and PGE metals while focusing on carbon sequestration, offering multiple revenue streams.
  • Granite Creek Copper's complete ownership of the Star project provides them with full control over the technological developments and economic outcomes.
  • The technology development initiative could significantly boost the economic viability of the project by enhancing metal extraction efficiency and carbon sequestration levels.
  • Despite the positive prospects, the technology is still in the early development phases, necessitating further laboratory and pilot-scale testing before commercial success can be guaranteed.
Granite Creek Copper has announced its involvement in a groundbreaking technology development project centered around ultramafic rocks for sustainable resource extraction. Collaborating with Kemetco Research, the initiative targets nickel extraction and carbon sequestration using material from the Star Ni-Cu-PGE project in British Columbia. The project aims to leverage the geological potential of the site for nickel, copper, cobalt, PGE metals, and carbon sequestration. By concentrating on laboratory and pilot-scale work, the endeavor seeks to optimize metal extraction efficiency and enhance carbon sequestration through the carbonation of magnesium minerals. With complete ownership of the Star project, Granite Creek Copper has full authority over the technological advancements and potential economic benefits. While the venture holds promise for multiple revenue streams and environmental sustainability, the technology is still in its developmental stages, requiring further testing to ensure commercial viability.
