InnoTechnologies Oy invites investors and clients for mutually beneficial cooperation in our projects. Mineral processing - Finnish environmental technologies Extraction of gold, platinum or any other rare-earth metals from alluvial deposits of sand and technogenic dumps of processing plants.

We used a heavy metal rod (a broken half shaft from a four wheel drive) and smashed the small bits of rock in a saucepan. The rock needed to be powdered for us to get to all the gold within the rock. This is a time-consuming job because we needed a very fine powder - far finer than even sand.

Extraction technologies are developed to transform resources of high value that are often found buried in planetary regolith or chemically bound in complex minerals or in gas mixtures in atmospheres. The molecules and elements of interest must be extracted from their indigenous form by processes adapted for their surrounding environment.

In this paper, the growth of research and development in rare metals extraction in India is surveyed from its infancy in the fifties to the present stature of a firm tboted technology accredited with several directed achievements and well-developed maturity.

Mining is the extraction of valuable minerals or other geological materials from the earth, ... These are oil and gas extraction, coal mining, metal ore mining, nonmetallic mineral mining and quarrying, ... Mining, the Environment and Indigenous Development Conflicts. Tucson AZ: University of Arizona Press.

Solvent extraction is generally not used to treat in organics (acids, bases, salts, heavy metals). Solvent extraction processes are not designed to treat particular compounds, and extraction efficiencies and processing rates are lower when there are high concentrations of indigenous organic compounds (humic and tannic acids in soil).
