    Mining Tailings Monetisation and Critical Metals Recovery – Unlocking Value with Advanced UHTP™ Pyrometallurgical Technology

    Author Jeremiah Josey, founder and chairman of IPRI At IPRI.Tech, innovation meets real-world mining challenges through our proprietary Ultra High Temperature Pyrometallurgical™ (UHTP™) technology. Our latest report reveals how this transformative approach unlocks immense, previously inaccessible value hidden in mining tailings—materials traditionally regarded as waste. Utilising advanced mineral characterisation techniques (DETECT) and pilot-scale UHTP™ treatments…

    Plasma Treatment Assisted Digestion of Rare Earth Elements (REE)

    By Jeremiah E. Josey, founder of IPRI.Tech 29 November 2024 Introduction IPRI.Tech has developed a plasma-based pre-treatment process for REE bearing particulate ores that promotes REE recovery and improves the control of radioactive components (Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials (NORMs)). The IPRI process utilises high temperature (~10,000ºC) plasma to dissociate REE bearing minerals into their most…
