Lithium Universe (ASX: LU7) has completed the detailed process flow sheet for a novel hydrometallurgical technology licensed from the University of Edinburgh to extract gold and copper from electronic waste. The low-temperature, reagent-recycling method aims to disrupt traditional smelting with environmental and cost benefits.

Iondrive Limited’s proprietary IONSolv™ process has independently achieved a 93.5% recovery rate for dysprosium from US commercial e-waste, vastly outperforming previous techno-economic assumptions and extending its rare earth extraction capabilities into heavy rare earths.

Lithium Universe (ASX: LU7) has demonstrated near-complete recovery of gold and copper from electronic waste using a novel, low-temperature hydrometallurgical process developed by the University of Edinburgh. This breakthrough supports its push into sustainable metal recycling and lithium supply chain projects.

Lithium Universe (ASX: LU7) has launched a detailed development program to commercialise a novel hydrometallurgical process for extracting gold and copper from electronic waste, aiming to disrupt traditional smelting with a more sustainable, low-energy method.

Lithium Universe (ASX: LU7) has acquired exclusive global rights to a University of Edinburgh hydrometallurgical process that extracts gold and copper from electronic waste using recyclable organic compounds, positioning the company at the forefront of sustainable precious metals recovery.

Metallium's US affiliate wins a US$1 million Phase II SBIR contract from the U.S. Department of War to pilot-scale its Flash Joule Heating technology, targeting gallium and germanium extraction from electronic waste. This advances the company’s push to secure domestic supply chains for defence-critical materials.

Metallium has successfully completed a 12-hour continuous run of its commercial-scale Flash Joule Heating reactor, demonstrating stable operation and exceeding throughput expectations. This milestone reduces scale-up risks ahead of planned multi-reactor deployment at its Texas facility.

Metallium has secured binding contracts for 50% of its Stage-1 US printed circuit board feedstock target, reinforcing its path to commercial scale-up at its Texas Technology Campus.

Infinity Mining has broadened its alliance with Orivium Global to integrate e-Waste processing with ore recovery at its Cangai project, aiming for near-term revenue via a capital-light plant design.

Metallium Limited reports rapid progress at its Gator Point Technology Campus in Texas, advancing its proprietary Flash Joule Heating technology to recover critical metals from electronic waste. The company targets processing 8,000 tonnes of printed circuit boards annually by late 2026.

Iondrive Limited has marked a pivotal shift from development to commercialisation of its IONSolv™ technology, securing $4 million to target the US e-waste market and commissioning its pilot plant to refine critical minerals.

Metallium Limited has kicked off commissioning at its Texas Technology Campus, sealed a multi-year feedstock deal with Glencore, and bolstered its balance sheet with a A$75 million capital raise, setting the stage for commercialisation in 2026.
