Gekko ’ s CEO , Andrew Edmondston , said : “ I am looking forward to collaborating with Clean Earth Technologies . Their new reagents , in combination with Gekko ’ s world leading ILR technologies , allows for mineral processing to become more environmentally friendly , while still achieving high recovery .”
CET ’ s Founder and CEO , Kevin Fell , echoed those sentiments , saying : “ As a world leader in innovative mining solutions , Gekko ’ s mission to transform the mining industry and the environment aligns with our passion to come up with innovative technology that supports a clean , circular economy . As a young company , Gekko ’ s willingness to partner with us to seek out new opportunities validates the work we have done in the past three years .”
EnviroGold Global plans to deploy proprietary modular , scalable reclamation technology and systems able to process up to 1,000 t / d of reclaimed tailings to remediate the legacy tailings at the Buchans River Delta Reclamation project
the world ’ s increasing demand for precious , critical and strategic metals by eliminating the
most carbon and energy intensive phases of metal production , creating a win-win for corporate , community and environmental stakeholders .”
Cyanide- and acid-free gold processing
Gekko Systems and Clean Earth Technologies ( CET ) recently executed a Memorandum of Understanding ( MoU ) that could see both parties pool resources to provide gold processing solutions that leverage CET ’ s cyanide- and acidfree technologies and reagents and Gekko ’ s Inline Leach Reactor ( ILR ) and associated modular mineral processing equipment .
The MoU entails the companies entering into a working relationship in the interests of identifying and pursuing appropriate project opportunities combining these technologies .
Gekko calls itself a world technical leader in processing and low-energy mining solutions . Founded in Australia in 1996 , it has offices in Johannesburg , Vancouver , Ballarat and Perth to service mining companies globally .
Gekko has expertise in the design , engineering , selection , development , manufacturing , assembly and deployment of modular mineral processing equipment for the processing of mineral ores in gravity separation , leaching and comminution in mining operations .
CET was founded in Singapore in 2019 and has developed a Clean Mining solution which focuses on eliminating the use of cyanide , mercury and other toxic practices in the gold recovery process .
The statement said that its solution “ naturally complements Gekko ’ s innovative solutions and strategy ”.
