Cyclone Electrorefining: Rethinking Metal Recovery Efficiency

In traditional electrorefining, flat plate anodes and cathodes have dominated the industry for decades. While proven, this approach comes with inherent limitations—slow ion transfer, uneven deposition, and inefficient slime management. Today, a new approach is emerging: Cyclone Electrorefining, a system designed to fundamentally improve how metals are refined and recovered. At the core of cyclone […]
Advancing 5N Silver Production for Aerospace: Avimetal & InyoAG Partnership

A significant advancement in high-purity silver production is underway in Darwin, California, where InyoAG LLC is developing one of the most resource-rich underground operations in the region. Spanning approximately 4,000 hectares with over 200 miles of tunnels, the site contains substantial deposits of tungsten, zinc, and notably silver-rich ore, positioning it as a strategic asset […]
Rebuilding the Missing Link in America’s Mineral Supply Chain

For years, I thought the biggest challenge in mining was finding resources, but the more I studied the industry, the clearer it became that the real bottleneck is not in the ground—it’s in processing and refining. The United States has abundant mineral resources, yet we continue to export raw materials and import finished metals, creating […]
