Alta Resource Technologies is on a mission to reinvent mining by harnessing advanced biochemistry to cost-effectively source the critical raw materials needed to power next-generation technology and bolster economic security. Our groundbreaking technology platform leverages customizable proteins to separate high-purity rare earth elements and other essential minerals with unprecedented selectivity while dramatically reducing the environmental impact of mining. By tailoring our adsorbent to bind selectively to individual elements, even at low concentrations in complex mixtures, Alta is positioned to expand access to the building blocks of electric vehicles, advanced electronics, defense technologies, and more. Alta's approach is built on technology licensed from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and co-developed with collaborators including researchers at Pennsylvania State University. With support from top investors including DCVC and Voyager, government agencies like the U.S. Department of Defense, and the State of Colorado, Alta aims to catalyze a mining technology revolution, secure critical mineral supply chains, and enhance U.S. competitiveness in the 21st-century economy.
