About Rzolv Technologies Inc.

Rzolv is a cleantech (clean technology) company developing innovative, non-toxic solutions that aim to transform gold extraction and mine site remediation. The company's flagship product, Rzolv, is a proprietary water-based hydrometallurgical formula that provides a sustainable, safe alternative to sodium cyanide for the dissolution and recovery of gold.

Cyanide has been the industry standard for more than a century, yet its toxicity has resulted in bans or restrictions across multiple jurisdictions, along with significant permitting, handling and ESG (environmental, social and governance) challenges for mining companies. Rzolv delivers performance and cost metrics comparable with cyanide while offering a non-toxic, reusable and environmentally sustainable profile, enabling gold extraction in regions, ore types and project settings where cyanide use is impractical, prohibited or socially unacceptable.
