Sidney Resources Corporation (OTC: SDRC)
In a press release issued on July 5, Sidney Resources Corporation, a pioneer in mining technologies, announced a major breakthrough in the mining industry through the successful completion of the first round of laser testing at the prestigious Colorado School of Mines. This groundbreaking development in laser spalling technology has the potential to transform the mining and construction sectors, attracting the attention of investors, governments, and mining equipment manufacturers worldwide.
Laser spalling, an innovative method utilizing lasers to chip away rock, offers unparalleled efficiency and precision. SDRC’s advanced laser technology enables faster excavation and construction processes while minimizing waste and reducing the risk of damage to surrounding structures. By eliminating the need for explosives, this technology enhances worker safety and reduces environmental impact, ushering in a new era that emphasizes speed, precision, safety, and sustainability in mining and construction.
Collaborating with experts Gabe Achenbach and David Irish of SDRC, alongside Nathan Fennell of the Colorado School of Mines, the team conducted preliminary rock spallation trial testing, utilizing SDRC’s patented laser technology and granite samples from the Lucky Ben Mine. The results were nothing short of remarkable. As laser power increased, the team observed successful spalling of the ore samples, with crumb-like material accumulating and the ability to efficiently remove material, including splitting off one chunk approximately 2 inches in size. The laser cut demonstrated precision akin to a diamond drill, leaving the core intact in the center. This significant advancement, coupled with the observation of large thermal cracks, marks a substantial leap forward in laser spalling technology.
The success of the initial laser testing at the Colorado School of Mines represents a significant milestone for SDRC and the entire mining industry. With a continued dedication to research and development, SDRC remains committed to driving innovation and creating a more sustainable and efficient future for mining operations. Collaborations with industry partners, including the Colorado School of Mines, further strengthen SDRC’s position as a leader in revolutionary laser mining technologies.
Gary Mladjan, an esteemed Opto-Mechanical Engineer with over fifty-five years of experience and multiple patents, has been instrumental in SDRC’s success in laser technology design and development. His expertise has significantly contributed to the defense industry and solidified SDRC’s position at the forefront of advancements in laser mining technologies.
By leveraging the advancements in laser spalling technology, SDRC is revolutionizing the mining industry and creating exciting opportunities for various industrial applications. The company’s commitment to sustainability and its dedication to research and development position it as a compelling force driving revolutionary advancements in laser mining technologies.
Raytheon Technologies Corporation (NYSE: RTX)
One of the major laser companies worth looking at is Raytheon Technologies Corp. The company has emerged as a dominant force in the high-energy laser systems space, deploying photons, or particles of light, to carry out complex military missions and civil defense operations.
In 2019, the United States Air Force deployed its first high-energy laser weapon system, known as HELWS, at its overseas posts. These laser systems, which have completed a total of 25,000 operational hours, offer 360-degree coverage and can be utilized on land, sea, and air.
Raytheon’s high-energy laser systems hold great potential for deployment in the massive mining industry. With the right product in place, the company could become a major player in the future of mining. Investors interested in technological developments that could benefit the mining industry may want to keep an eye on further moves from Raytheon.
Hecla Mining Company (NYSE: HL)
Hecla Mining Company (NYSE:HL) is a gold mining company that stands to benefit from disruptive technologies. As one of the largest silver producers in the United States, Hecla Mining is well-positioned to capitalize on an uptick in precious metal prices.
With a 10% growth in silver production last year, the company expects an 18% growth in production in 2023 and a 35% growth by 2025. Hecla operates mines in the Yukon and Quebec, Canada, as well as in Alaska and Idaho in the U.S. Its portfolio includes several exploration and pre-development projects in world-class silver and gold mining districts in North America.
In addition, Hecla is in the process of acquiring ATAC Resources Ltd. as part of its strategy to acquire large land packages in tier-one mining jurisdictions. This acquisition will grant Hecla access to the Rackla and Connaught projects in Canada, strengthening its foothold in the Yukon. It builds on the previous acquisition of Keno Hill, providing access to the largest primary silver mine in Canada.
This effort to broaden mineral resource exposure and unlock new revenue opportunities aligns with Hecla’s goals. In the first quarter, the company reported earnings per share of 1 cent, in line with consensus estimates, with revenues increasing 2.4% to approximately $200 million.
Hycroft Mining Holding Corporation (NASDAQ: HYMC)
Among the companies embracing the revolutionary advancements in laser mining technologies, one stands out as a promising candidate to greatly benefit. Hycroft Mining Holding Corporation (HYMC), an exploration and mining company, owns the Hycroft Mine and has recently completed an Initial Assessment, estimating substantial gold and silver mineral resources. With 10.6 million ounces of Measured and Indicated gold resources and 3.4 million ounces of Inferred gold resources, along with 361.0 million ounces of Measured and Indicated silver resources and 96.0 million ounces of Inferred silver resources, Hycroft holds significant potential for harnessing the benefits of laser technology.
Notably, Hycroft has a successful history of oxide heap leaching operations but is now focused on transitioning into a large-scale milling operation to process sulfide ore. In line with this vision, the company is conducting technical studies and engaging in a robust exploration drill program, targeting higher-grade materials. The Hycroft Mine is already permitted for both heap leach and milling operations, boasting extensive on-site infrastructure.
Furthermore, Hycroft Mining has made strategic moves to enhance its mining portfolio. Through an agreement to acquire claims near a past-producing high-grade gold and silver mine in Rosebud, the company has established a 50% undivided interest with Hecla Mining. This acquisition provides access to valuable data from 10,000 acres, including drill holes, rock chip samples, and surface mapping, indicating the potential for finding higher-grade ore and feeder systems.
With a solid financial position, including $132 million in unrestricted cash and $34 million in restricted cash, Hycroft is well-positioned to accelerate exploration and mining activities at its flagship Hycroft Mine. As laser mining technologies revolutionize the industry, Hycroft Mining emerges as a promising contender to harness their benefits and unlock new opportunities for success.
