Core Resources and Glencore Technology received the inaugural METS Ignited Collaboration Award for their commercialisation of the Albion Process.

METS Ignited CEO Ric Gros said the project between Core Resources and Glencore Technology was an excellent example of business growth, new markets and export opportunities as the result of collaboration between an innovative Australian METS supplier and a global mining company.

"Companies mining gold are looking for efficient processes to treat lower grades and more complex refractory ore," Gros said.
