TORONTO, June 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- EnviroGold Global Limited (CSE: NVRO | OTCQB: ESGLF | FSE: YTK), (“EnviroGold,” or the “Company”), a clean technology company focused on reprocessing mine waste to recover precious, base and critical metals, is pleased to provide an update on recent advancements in its proprietary technology platform. These developments include significant progress in process optimisation, commercialisation initiatives, and the establishment of key strategic partnerships. The Company also outlines its evolving customer engagement pipeline and revenue model as it enters a new phase of scalable growth and global deployment.
Delivering Clean Technology Solutions to a Global Market
EnviroGold has developed and refined the NVRO Process™, a proprietary metallurgical process that enables the economic recovery of metals from compatible sulphidic tailings, while improving environmental outcomes. The Company is initially targeting tailings deposits in excess of five million tonnes, containing at least US
The NVRO Process™ enables customers to extract value from legacy mine tailings while addressing operational and environmental liabilities. The Company has currently identified more than US
Technology Progress and Commercialisation Update
Recent process optimisation efforts by the Company’s engineering partner, Andritz Group www.andritz.com, have delivered substantial improvements in technical performance, cost efficiency, and overall economic viability for the Company’s customers’ tailings.
These advancements, developed through the Andritz IDEAS simulation platform, will now be integrated into the Company’s Rapid Deployment Pathway, which streamlines the commercialisation process for customers.
Additionally:
- A leading international consultancy firm has commenced a design and engineering optimisation study, including detailed capital and operating cost assessments.
- Two customers’ tailings have entered the commercial validation phase at EnviroGold’s demonstration plant in Perth, Australia.
As a result of these developments, the NVRO Process™ is now ready for commercial licencing, supported by validated capex and opex estimates and projected internal rates of return (IRR) for deployment ready projects.
To enhance scalability and execution efficiency, EnviroGold has established a strategic partnership with Fraser Alexander, a globally recognised tailings management operator. Fraser Alexander brings decades of experience in mineral processing and project commissioning, significantly de-risking project delivery timelines and bolstering the Company’s capacity to meet client expectations at scale and pace.
A Scalable, License-Based Model for Sustainable Metals Recovery
EnviroGold’s capital-light business model supports repeatable, global deployment of the NVRO Process™, enabling strong margins without the Company incurring significant capital expenditures for plant ownership. Operational control and execution risk are largely outsourced to experienced partners.
Under this licensing model, the Company expects to:
- Execute its first license contract within the next 9 months;
- Add two new license agreements per year for the following two years;
- Scaling to four new license agreements per year thereafter.
Each license agreement is projected to generate a minimum of US
Outlook
EnviroGold is well positioned to capitalise on elevated metal prices and growing demand for strategic metals. With a proven proprietary process, a defined licensing and royalty model, and experienced commercial execution partners, the Company is now well placed to generate long-term value and recurring earnings.
“EnviroGold’s ‘metals-without-mining’ model offers a scalable solution to one of the industry’s most persistent challenges,” said Company CEO David Cam. “With strong economics for clients and a clear path to recurring revenue, we are now entering a transformative sustainable growth phase.”
