Clean Technology for Sustainable Mining

Myco Metals delivers sustainable mining solutions with zero toxic chemicals. Myco Metals uses mushroom mycelium to extract metals from waste. Mycelium is the root system of mushrooms that grows beneath the soil and is a major carbon sink, storing 13 gigatons of carbon, approximately 36% of yearly fossil fuels emissions.

Mycelium grows at room temperature and therefore does not require high-energy processes associated with typical mining practices, reducing energy consumption and CO2 emissions by 50%.

By extracting metals from mine waste, the cause of mine pollution is fixed at the source, preventing acid mine drainage and protecting landholders, flora and fauna, and ecosystems. For further information, please see our ‘technology’ page (https://www.mycometals.com.au/technology).

Reduce carbon footprint, prevent acid mine drainage, and achieve ESG compliance with our green biotechnology.
