Investing in ZalvaTech
ZalvaTech applies advanced AI and machine learning techniques to design and develop site-specific, optimized biosorbents aiming to enhance recovery of precious and critical metals with high selectivity from complex mining streams, including tailings, low-grade ore, and mine-impacted water, turning long-term liability into recoverable value.
First proof point: greater than 99 percent gold recovery in under 15 minutes under controlled laboratory conditions using a synthetic gold solution.

What We've Proven
Greater than 99 percent gold recovery in under 15 minutes from an AnkiBind-guided formulation under controlled laboratory conditions using a synthetic gold solution.
AnkiBind is deployed.
A cloud-hosted platform with tiered user access. AnkiBind guided the biosorbent chemistry behind ZalvaTech’s first gold result.
180+ structured customer discovery conversations
ZalvaTech has completed more than 180 structured customer discovery conversations with mining operators, technical leaders, tailings and water specialists, and commercialization stakeholders.
CAD $520K secured
ZalvaTech has secured CAD $520K, including $360K in Mitacs non-dilutive funding, with the rest through NRC IRAP and a friends-and-family round.
3-layer IP strategy
ZalvaTech’s intellectual property strategy includes trade-secret biomaterial formulations, a proprietary AnkiBind algorithm, and planned process-integration patents.
Validation partners
ZalvaTech is working with MIRARCO and NORCAT for mining ecosystem integration validation, and with the Verschuren Centre for process optimization and scale-up.
Why Now
Ore Grades Are Declining
Gold grades are down approximately 50 percent over 30 years, while copper grades are down approximately 25 percent over 10 years.
Demand Is Outrunning Supply
Projected 2024 to 2040 growth includes lithium increasing by 353 percent, nickel by 69 percent, cobalt by 49 percent, and copper by 28 percent.
New Supply Arrives Too Late
Building a new mine takes roughly 17.8 years, creating a timing gap between rising demand and new primary supply.
Tailings Accountability Is Tightening
The August 2025 Global Industry Standard on Tailings Management milestone brings 77 auditable requirements.
Policy Is Actively Enabling Recovery
Policy momentum includes Ontario's recovery permit in July 2025 and the G7 critical minerals declaration in June 2025.
Defensibility
ZalvaTech's advantage is not one formulation. It is the closed loop connecting site chemistry, biomaterial design, and measured performance.
Physics First.
Recommendations are grounded in thermodynamics, mass balance and kinetics, not pattern-matching alone.
It Compounds.
Every experiment sharpens the next recommendation.
Integration Is the Moat.
Proprietary binding motifs, process know-how, and access to real mine samples.
De-Risk First, Scale Through Shared-Value Deployment
Qualify
Site data and samples.
Feasibility Study
Site-specific validation.
Mine-Site Pilot
Field validation under real conditions.
Commercial Deployment
Shared-value basis.
No plant rebuild, and no large upfront capital commitment from the operator.
Where the Next Round Takes Us
We are raising to move ZalvaTech from laboratory proof to a pilot-ready deployment package: real-sample validation, scale-up, and the site-specific evidence customers require before committing to a pilot.
