Temas’ portfolio of patents focuses on hydrometallurgical extraction from concentrates, whole ores, slags, and tailings, significantly enhancing recovery of critical metals, battery metals, PGMs, precious and base metals, and REEs. The patented RCL process achieves materially higher through-yields and substantially lower capital and operating costs compared to traditional methods, ideally suited for treating increasingly complex ores.
The ORF platform’s efficiency—validated with over 65% cost reduction in TiO₂ processing—is expected to deliver similar economic gains for Nickel and other complex ores.
The RCL platform’s closed-loop design and >95% reagent recycling deliver ESG and environmental benefits across Nickel, Gold, REEs, and beyond—not just TiO₂.
With 99.8% TiO₂ purity proven in pilot testing, the RCL platform is built to maximize recovery, purity, and margins across all target metals.
A University of Minnesota study on ORF Technologies’ patents concluded that the TiO₂ recovery process could slash production costs by ~ 50-60%, and the process is also less energy-intensive compared to the industry standard.
The global market for TiO₂, valued at US$21.23 billion, is anticipated to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 6.2% through 2032, signifying a substantial opportunity for ORF Technologies’ efficient recovery process.
ORF Technologies’ patented process can produce high-quality Titanium Dioxide (TiO₂) from low-grade materials and is applicable to all ilmenite ores, including those rich in Chromium (Cr), Cobalt (Co), and Vanadium (V), thus enabling the extraction of additional value from elements that are typically not recoverable with other methods.
This multi-mineral capability allows Temas to diversify beyond a single commodity, opening up revenue streams from Nickel, precious and platinum group metals, REEs or other critical minerals as market conditions and strategic opportunities dictate.
Flexibility in who we are available to partner with further diversifies potential revenue streams leveraged from the IP while effectively managing the risks.
For polymetallic deposits, RCL offers the potential to extract multiple valuable metals from a single feedstock, significantly enhancing project economics.
As a licensable technology, RCLs proven adaptability to various minerals, including those listed in our IP like Nickel, dramatically widens its market appeal to miners globally who are looking for innovative solutions for their specific resources.
Temas is actively pursuing global licensing opportunities, with third-party companies currently evaluating Temas IP for potential operations in Indonesia, Australia, and North America.
