Rock Kleen is a revolutionary, disruptive technology that recovers residual precious metals, including silver and gold, base and ferrous metals, nutrient materials, and industrial minerals from'sub-ore grade'mine tailings.Rock Kleen also neutralizes 100 percent of any residual cyanide, used in original mining, rendering tailings cleaner than they were before processing.

Key Points: 
  • Rock Kleen is a revolutionary, disruptive technology that recovers residual precious metals, including silver and gold, base and ferrous metals, nutrient materials, and industrial minerals from'sub-ore grade'mine tailings.Rock Kleen also neutralizes 100 percent of any residual cyanide, used in original mining, rendering tailings cleaner than they were before processing.
  • Rock Kleen Technology is a potential "Zero Waste Energy Saving Technology," recovering a high percentage of residual silver and gold, neutralizing residual cyanide, recovering residual nitrogen and the "critical minerals" manganese, magnesium, and potassium from silver-gold mine tailings.
  • The new concept was developed as an outgrowth of laboratory testing that was recently completed to evaluate the leaching capabilities of the Rock Kleen Technology.Several mining companies have inquired about gold recoverability using Rock Kleen.
  • "This potential economic benefit is one of the features that makes the Rock Kleen Technology truly revolutionary."
