High quality, low cost and sustainably sourced cement replacement, additives & sand from mine tailings.
About
Our innovative solution called Entail uses tailings to produce a variety of products an byproducts. Entail not only neutralizes the tailings but produces mechanically activated raw materials free of heavy metals and acid generating components. Products and by-products include gypsum, alkali activators, pozzolanic additives, sand and others needed for construction applications. Extensive testing have yielded strengths of up to 5000 PSI within the first 7 days of curing and high quality clinker with a replacement of cement by up to 65%, in addition to high quality sand with durability index of 80 and many other applications. The solution is a economically viable way to decarbonize not only the mining industry but the cement industry providing products to major sectors in the world's economy. Tested, piloted and validated by the world's leading mining players makes our solution the most viable approach to using tailings for the generation clean raw materials for low embodied carbon applications.
