The impact of greener circular supplies
We are committed to powering a better future through our technology and green metals.
Our impact
Mint is going
100%
of our metals are recovered from waste.
100%
of our metals are returned to local supply chains.
8.8m lbs
e-waste diverted from landfill each year per Mint facility.
2.2m lbs
of sustainably sourced copper returned to local economies each year from one facility.

How we process e-waste
E-waste is prepared for processing
Waste printed circuit board components from the e-waste are weighed and milled into a fine sand consistency. This maximises the surface area enabling rapid metal recovery and guarantees data destruction exceeding NSA standards.
Copper is recovered through smart chemistry
Copper is recovered through a conventional electrochemical process, producing pure copper sheets ready to be reused.
Precious metals are recovered
Through our patented biotechnology, we recover precious metals in a manner that both concentrates and purifies them. The material recovered is then further refined to produce commodity grade gold.
By-products and chemicals are recycled or sold
Chemicals used are recharged and recycled within the process, or converted into by-products that have use in construction and agriculture.

What partnering with us means for the planet
Ethical sourcing
Feature one
Ethical sourcing
Our technology recovers value from a problematic waste stream in an ethical and sustainable way.
Low carbon
Feature two
Low carbon
Compared to traditional extraction methods, our biorefineries produce over 90% less carbon emissions.
Local processing
Feature three
Local processing
Having local biorefineries means that we can process waste onshore, removing the need to send it to landfill or export value.
Let's build a better future, together
