Still Bright
Still Bright is developing a patented hydrometallurgical process that enables the fastest conversion of concentrated copper ore to refined copper observed to date at room temperature and pressure. The rapid reaction rates and ambient conditions correlate to low capital costs and operating costs, respectively. The process leverages electrochemical technologies already prevalent in other industries to carry out the reaction chemistry. The conversion can also be 100% electrified and powered by renewable energy. Still Bright's proprietary technology solves for the fact that global copper demand is rapidly growing, while production is detrimental to the environment and increasingly constrained.
