Low-Carbon
Oxide Production
from Waste
LOW™ Technology
LOW™ technology integrates ARC with conventional hydrometallurgy to improve recoveries, reduce cost, waste and footprint. The first application of LOW is to turn Serpentine tailings into three low‑carbon products: high‑purity magnesium oxide (MgO), silica (SCM), and nickel‑cobalt concentrate (Ni/Co).

Key benefits
Multi-feedstock by design
Adapts across ores and residues - serpentine tailings, refractory Cu/Au, nickel laterites, hard-rock lithium, phosphates, uranium - by pairing our platform chemistry with ARC™ reagent regeneration
