DEHPA®Highly effective extractant to recover uranium,vanadium, beryllium, yttrium, cobalt, zinc, rare earths and other valuable metals
IONQUEST® 290Phospinic acid solvent capable of extracting several metals via a cation exchange mechanism similar to DEHPA®. Used primarily to separate Co from Ni but also great for Zinc, Cadmium, Mn and Mg by pH control.
CuPRO MEX 3302Modified 5-Nonylsalicyladoxime formulation
CuPRO MEX 3304Modified 5-Nonylsalicyladoxime formulation

The "CuPRO MEX" Range of extactants
  • Products formulated to extract value from scarce resources in the most cost effective manner
    • these versatile formulated products have a long history of commerical application.
    • capable of highly selective copper extraction from leach solutions containing a wide range of copper value at various levels of acidity.
    • the products strip with ease using spent tankhouse electrolyte
    • the products exhibit excellent chemical stability

CuPRO MEX products are currently being applied in major production operations and have been qualified at many SX facilities worldwide.
