Mint Innovation is the world’s first clean technology company that uses natural biomass and smart chemistry to extract metals, such as gold and copper, from electronic waste on a commercial scale.Mint’s technology is unique because it offers economically attractive ‘green metals’ (metals with a lower carbon lifecycle) to the market, has a significantly lower carbon impact than outdated processes, and is deployed at local scale which stops waste from being sent to landfill or shipped overseas.

Combining our expertise, passion and innovation, we extract green metals from the worlds waste to accelerate a circular economy​.

Our aim is to deploy our unique and clean technology as ‘biorefineries’ in every major city in the world – where there are waste streams containing valuable metals (such as gold, copper and silver). We want to be there helping to extract them back into the local economy in a way that helps to protect the environment and the future of the planet.After our recent Series C capital raise of $60M, Mint plans to expand its research and development on various waste streams other than e-waste, such as end of life lithium-ion batteries and see how the technology can recover precious metals like lithium, cobalt, or manganese from these batteries to be recirculated in a low impact way. In addition, we are finding useful recycled materials for circular supply including gypsum and plastics to be used in gib boards and recycled fence posting.
