Super Copper commercializing products for the global mining chemicals market through new science division

Super Copper (CSE: CUPR; OTCQB: CUPPF) – a Vancouver-based mining exploration company with a focus on copper assets – has launched a new material science and technology division. The company’s decision expands its presence beyond mining exploration into chemical technologies that can generate commercial opportunities for the company in the global marketplace.

Super Copper will be seeking to address critical industry pain points like high costs, recovery rates, and environmental challenges through the development of development of innovative additives or replacements for existing chemicals.

Zachary Dolesky, CEO of Super Copper, said, "Practically every mine in the world relies on chemicals for metal recovery, waste management, and process optimization. Through this new division, we aim to develop and provide chemical solutions that integrate into existing mining operations, improving performance while addressing sustainability concerns."

Many mining analysts note that the global mining chemicals market was valued at approximately USD $12.1 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow to USD $20.4 billion by 2033 (Straits Research), at a compound annual growth rate of 6%. Mining chemicals play a critical role in mineral processing, including froth flotation, solvent extraction, and grinding, and are essential for maximizing recovery rates, reducing operational costs, and ensuring environmental compliance.

Mining operations globally rely on a variety of specialty chemicals to process ores effectively, including: Frothers and Collectors: Improve bubble formation and adhesion for froth flotation, Flocculants and Coagulants: Enhance the settling and filtration of tailings and mineral concentrates, Solvent Extractants: Extract specific metals from ore solutions, Grinding Aids: Reduce energy consumption and improve milling efficiency, and finally Rheology Modifiers: Manage slurry behaviour and improve pumping efficiency.

These chemicals are integral to improving recovery rates, sorting minerals, reducing waste, and decreasing costs per ton for mining companies. However, some are highly corrosive and expensive, creating opportunities for innovation to reduce their environmental impact while improving process efficiency.

Company staff will provide more details on the new science and technology division implementation in a later update. More information is posted on www.SuperCopper.com.
