BacTech Recovers Metals While Healing the Environment
There is a need to conduct mining activities in a safe and responsible way. We work with local stakeholders and ensure that the lasting benefits of our operations are shared with local communities.
Our Mission
To Heal the Planet
BacTech uses naturally-occurring bacteria, harmless to both humans and the environment, to liberate precious and base metals from difficult to treat ores, concentrates and tailings. But the benefits of BacTech's environmentally-friendly processing extend beyond the remediation of tailings and other mining stockpiles. Our solution strikes balance and considers benefits to planet, people and profit.
