ZalvaTech is building a site-specific,
AI-optimized biomaterial platform
for selective multi-metal recovery
from complex mining streams.
ZalvaTech helps mining operators
convert complex waste streams
into cleaner water, recoverable
metals, and lower long-term liability.
Unlock the Value Hidden in Mine Waste
The Challenge
Mine tailings, acid drainage, and contact water create long-term environmental and financial liabilities. Conventional treatment often relocates waste, leaves valuable metals behind, and increases OPEX over time.
Our Why
Mining underpins modern life, but the water and waste generated during extraction can become persistent liabilities for operators, communities, and ecosystems. ZalvaTech builds practical, science-based tools to reduce that burden by turning challenging tailings and mine-impacted water into cleaner water and recoverable resources, so sites can operate responsibly today and leave a safer legacy tomorrow.
The Regulatory Reality
Modern frameworks such as GISTM, ICMM guidance, IRMA, and evolving permitting regimes increasingly treat tailings and contact water as enduring obligations. Operators are expected to provide credible closure plans, ongoing monitoring, transparency, and, in many jurisdictions, financial assurance for post-closure water treatment.
Our Applications
Active Mines
Reduce water-treatment burden, improve metal recovery potential, and support lower-impact operations.
Legacy/Closure Sites
Treat acid mine drainage and mine-impacted water while reducing long-term liability and improving closure outcomes.
New Mines
Build ESG confidence, permitting readiness, and recovery-by-design from day one.
