enCore Energy Announces Formation of Group 11 Technologies
01 Septembre 2020 - 2:30PM
enCore Energy Corp. (TSX-V: EU) (OTCQB: ENCUF)
(the "
Company") reports that it has completed
necessary agreements to acquire 40% of
Group 11
Technologies Inc., (‘Group 11”) a United States-based
private company committed to testing and implementing non-invasive
extraction technologies (“in-situ recovery” or “ISR”) of precious
metals with the use of environmentally-friendly solutions. Group 11
has now completed a successful commercial launch. Effective August
28th, 2020 the Group 11 has finalized all necessary Organizational,
Shareholder, and Licensing documentation with its founding partners
and will now commence formal operations. Group 11’s initials
steps will include acquisition and subsequent testing of already
identified gold projects that demonstrate specific qualities
lending themselves to the Company’s environmentally and
economically superior processes. Group 11 is committed to providing
commercially viable, sustainable alternatives to conventional
mining for the extraction and processing of precious metals.
Group 11 was founded and is owned by enCore
Energy Corp. (“enCore”) (TSXV: EU; OTCQB: ENCUF) with 40% of the
common stock, EnviroLeach Technologies Inc. (“EnviroLeach”)
(CSE : ETI; OTCQB: EVLLF) with 40% of the common stock and
Golden Predator Mining Corp. (“Golden Predator”) (TSXV: GPY; OTCQB:
NTGSF) with 20% of the common stock. EnCore has contributed
$750,000 in initial funding and will provide in-situ extraction
expertise, EnviroLeach has entered into a license agreement with
Group 11 for the use of its environmentally friendly metal recovery
process and will provide chemical and metallurgical expertise,
Golden Predator will contribute mobile processing equipment and
expertise in utilizing EnviroLeach’s environmentally friendly
solution for recovery of gold from sulphide concentrates.
Group 11, a private company, will finance all ongoing
research and development expenditures for in-situ and secondary
recovery applications.
About Group 11 Technologies
Inc. Sustainable metals extraction is a serious challenge
for the mining industry which faces mounting concerns over its
environmental and carbon footprint, energy consumption, operational
safety and especially its impact on water use and water quality
while responding to an ever-increasing need for metals in our daily
lives. Each Group 11 owner brings a vital skill set to address
these challenges and create a unique business opportunity. Group 11
is supported by a first-class staff of scientists and engineers, an
extraordinary data set, independent technical validations,
strategic relationships, over $20 million in research and
development, and commercially proven processes and
technologies.
Dennis Stover, CEO of enCore Energy stated: "The
enCore team members were active inventors and innovators in the
earliest stages of developing and commercializing ISR technologies
for the U.S. uranium mining industry and continue these leading
efforts today. We look forward to applying our expertise with this
proven, environmentally sound technology to the recovery of
precious and other metals."
Background on Non-Invasive Extraction
TechnologyNon-invasive extraction of minerals has been
successfully implemented in the mining sector with many innovators
and patent holders in the field on the team at enCore, one of the
Group 11 partners. These innovators pioneered In-situ Recovery
(“ISR”) which has been successfully utilized to recover metals
including uranium and copper using liquid solutions other than
cyanide. Group 11 is committed to the development and
application of ISR extraction for gold and other metals using
EnviroLeach’s patented environmentally friendly process along with
enCore’s expertise in ISR extraction. This combination of expertise
will advance a business model that has potential to disrupt the
conventional mining industry.
In-Situ Recovery (meaning ‘in place’) is a
non-invasive extraction method that has transformed the uranium
industry. In ISR, diluted water-based solutions are circulated
underground, dissolving the targeted metals, and returned to
surface for further processing and recovery of the target metals.
ISR means no open pits or underground tunnels, no tailings or large
waste dumps and no discharge of noxious chemical at surface. It
therefore has the potential to be a low-impact, low capital cost
mining method. When many projects are burdened by remediation and
rehabilitation requirements, ISR means substantially reduced mine
closure time and costs compared to conventional practices. In
addition, energy requirements, water usage and the environmental
footprint of mining projects can be significantly reduced using ISR
technology.
Group 11 Technologies
Inc. (‘Group 11’) is a private
US-based company committed to the development and application of
environmentally and socially responsible mineral extraction. Its
combination of non-invasive extraction technology and
environmentally friendly processes to recover gold and other metals
provides an alternate solution to conventional open pit and
underground mineral extraction. The goal of advancing sustainable
extraction considers growing concerns surrounding water use and
discharge, carbon footprint, energy consumption and safety while
addressing a growing global need for metals in our daily lives.
About enCore Energy Corp.enCore
Energy Corp., with assets entirely in the United States, has a 100%
interest, free of holding costs, in 115,000+ acres (46,400 ha) of
