Allonnia is paving the way for sustainable transformation in the mining industry with our bio-solubilization process. Using proprietary selective solvents, developed in the Allonnia Labs, we target the dissolution of gangue mineralogies. Once removed, the beneficiated concentrate can be further processed as needed on site, while the remaining impurities may be removed and recycled while decreasing tails and slag volumes.
Gangue impurities (soluble aluminum, silicon, calcium, and/or magnesium) can be utilized as feedstocks in other industries, depending on purity, or in the case of magnesium and calcium, the impurities can be mineralized to sequester CO2.
EXPERIENCE INCREASED MINERAL PRODUCTION
Our bio-solubilization technology is simple and easy to use and enhances the performance output of existing mechanical equipment to reduce energy requirements and lower the overall cost of production.
Our bolt-on bio-solubilization process onto an existing production line can elevate the overall grade.
Our selective solvents can provide a paradigm shift in reducing the need for grade / recovery trade-offs.
Bio-solubilization can unshackle mine planning restrictions designed to mitigate against processing low grade deposits by reducing costly stockpiling and blending operations while increasing production.
Using an agitated leach tank and well established water treating technology, we have engineered our solution to be easy to operate and maintain in readily available equipment.
Our solution is designed to bolt-on to your existing equipment to minimize disruption and capital expense on your plant footprint.
Let us show you how. Our selective solvents have been proven in development using a range of supplied concentrates from our mining partners. After successfully reaching proof of concept we have now demonstrated bench scale performance on 3 Kg of material with exceptional results on nickel, copper, iron, and others.

IN VALUE METAL
Allonnia generates its bio-solvents from a mixture of living organisms. We physically separate them from the bio-solvents and utilize it to dissolve gangue in a standard agitating leach test.
Over the course of a few hours, selective gangue minerals breakdown and dissolve into solution, increasing the grade of the remaining solids which are recovered with a simple filter. We measure the effectiveness by XRF and ICP in order to complete the mass balance and further tune the bio-solvent to improve selectivity.
We are expanding our development partner roster in preparation for continuous demonstration testing in Q1 2025 at flow rates of 5-10 Kg/hr of materials. Let us demonstrate the effectiveness of our proprietary selective solvents with your flotation concentrate samples.
