& ESG FUNDS/INVESTORS 
TO DEMONSTRATE THEIR DEMAND ​FOR CLEAN COPPER™
​WHILE FACILITATING BOOKABLE ASSETS BASED UPON THE SAME.
DOES BOOKABLE CLEAN COPPER EXCEED ESG SCORE CRITERIA?
WE BELIEVE, YES!

BE An EARLIEST ADOPTER OF CLEAN COPPER


.***
VISION:
 
Clean up the world's mine tailings.
MISSION: Obey Mother Earth's Voice 'Clean up as you go along'.
​
GOAL: To incentivize structural changes to 
the copper mining industry
that result in
the 
​"balancing of the budget of our natural resources".
We call this opportunity
"The 5th Industrial Revolution" defined as
FULL ENVIRONMENTAL RESTORATION that leads to
The 3rd Great Age of Discovery to The Planets.
Clean Copper Revolution leapfrogs
by happenchance
The World Economic Forum (WEF) Klaus Schwab's
forced 4th Industrial Revolution
contrived to deliver a One World Order without sovereign nation states'
populous involved to the extent our Plant Earth is to be
owned en total by 'elites' and managed by a few.
The 5th ENVIRONMENTAL Industrial Revolution does not politicize
environmental issues, but rather solves them  logically and quickly
as can only happen by free market forces 
for the benefit of 
All Mankind.

​
***
EXAMPLE: By causing demonstrative change 
to the legal and and fiduciary definition of
'mine closure permit' from 'forever' to 'never', 
we reduce risk to mine workers and their families,
while addressing permanent contamination of local aquifers. 
We do this by creating 1,000s of jobs with deliverables
that lead up to the Gateway of the Third Great Age of Exploration.
The Second Great Age of Exploration was launched in 1492
and prior to fully map and populate Planet Earth.

​***
Mine tailings are long term earthen dams of toxic sludge or sometimes heap leach piles.
These dams and piles currently define a legal 'mine closure'. 
Both mine tailings and heap leach piles
equate to the 
unacknowledged ​achilles heel of
The Global Supply Chain.
By delivering Net Zero Clean Copper™, we empower YOU,
YOUR COMPANY, YOUR BRAND, YOUR NATION, YOUR TEAM
to be the empirical enablers of True Circularity.
True Circularity is defined as products or services that recycle
all materials
including base metals...
so as to leave no environmental footprint.
The problem is not easy to solve. All PRODUCTS & SERVICES use and need
copper. Until copper is made to be Clean Copper™ at the copper mines, 
Circularity is IMPOSSIBLE.
We need your participation.
You may discover that Clean Copper™ is of greater value and importance than 
all the gold in the world.

***
WE BELIEVE: There can be no Sustainability, No Circularity
​until there is Clean Copper.
We define Clean Copper as elemental metal
derived via Zero Emissions, Zero Waste methods and results.
We redefine mining extraction, production, and refining
so as to exclude the use of mine tailings going forward. 
Why not deal with the waste rock and ore in real time?
By focusing entirely on production and refining of mine tailings exclusively,
we are delivering up the next generation of Copper Mining.
Qualitatively as of 2020, we are preventing ~$32B per year of copper mining tailings
waste going forward as driven by demand for copper going into Electric Vehicles.
Simultaneously, we enable higher valuations for verifiable
forward and actual Clean Copper
that can be bought and continually owned
as booked assets on a given set of financials.

***
We exist to induce and complete a paradigm shift in mining.
We do not accept innovation defined as
'greater efficiencies' to existing protocols and methods.

​***
With scant penalty or remuneration,
tailings dams breech yearly, destroying lives, ecosystems,
and huge swaths​ of land base.

​Regardless, mine tailings continue to be permitted
to remain forever with little to no oversight. 

***
THE CLEAN COPPER SUPPLY CHAIN ALLIANCE has been birthed to
provide downstream companies, consumers, and fund managers
an opportunity to work together to remove the elephant
in the room that unilaterally prevents
true Circularity and Sustainability.

***
Quantifiable
Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Factors
currently being integrated into investment decisions
are not bonafide until there is Clean Copper.

***
Only bonafide members of THE CLEAN COPPER SUPPLY CHAIN ALLIANCE
will be allowed to use the Clean Copper logo on reports, 
stories, and packaging.

***
Today's copper is 'Dirty',
yet its price and value do not reflect this fact.

Our Clean Copper results in verifiable data
that enables comparative reporting
of both
Dirty and Clean Copper.
Which side of the equation do you want reflected in your story?
Dirty copper contaminates all supply chain networks
and sustainability reporting

for the simple fact that copper is ubiquitous throughout

The Global Supply Chain.
***
Copper has been the cornerstone
of civilizations' economies for centuries.
We do not expect this dependency to waiver,
but rather to definitively increase.
Demand for copper due to EV automobiles is already causing
a $32B/year increase in copper thrown to waste per year going forward.

***
Mankind to date requires
the equivalent of 1.7 Earths
to provide for the resources we utilize
before they are absorbed as waste.
Yes, Ponder That.

***
The waste created to obtain the metals we use and dispose of is
nothing less than immoral, even cruel, and without excuse.
The problem is not merely one of lack of information.
***

We have created a solution that all can act upon.
We are not activists. We are technology solution providers.

​***
In reality mine tailings exist because they continue to be allowed.
Get on board our comprehensive solution! We make it easy to do so.
Your reward is: You as a consumer, your company/employer, your Fund,
your Nation State

will be the vanguard of True Circularity.

​***
We invite you to Be the Vanguard of Clean Copper.

BE AN EARLIEST ADOPTER OF CLEAN COPPER
STOP TO VISCERALLY ABSORB THE THREAT & IMPACT TO LOCALS OF
​THE MINE TAILINGS IN YOUR SUPPLY CHAIN. DID YOU KNOW?:

WE CAN ACHIEVE TODAY, A LEVEL OF ENVIRONMENTAL INTEGRITY 
THAT OUR PROGENY MAY CELEBRATE NOW, DEFINITIVELY TOMORROW.

Clean Copper™ is a tactile manifestation of hope for humanity.

DID YOU KNOW?
​
DOWNSTREAM DEMAND FOR COPPER ROBS THIRTY YEARS FROM LIFESPANS
​OF MINE WORKERS IN THE WORLD'S COPPER ZONES. THIRTY YEARS OF LIFE IS EXCHANGED FOR THE COPPER IN YOUR EV, iPHONE & RENEWABLES.

IF YOU ARE A CONSUMER, WE ENABLE YOU TO DEMAND CLEAN COPPER BE USED IN THE PRODUCTS YOU BUY. THIS RANDOM ACT OF KINDNESS CAN CHANGE THE LIVES OF ALL MINERS AND THEIR FAMILIES.

​CLEAN COPPER IS DEFINED EXPRESSLY SO AS TO RADICALLY CHANGE HOW UPSTREAM COPPER IS MINED AND MANAGED FROM THE OPENING OF MINE PITS, UNDERGROUND EXCAVATIONS AND NEW MINE TAILINGS TO YOUR SMART PHONE AND OTHER CONSUMER PRODUCTS.

ROUGHLY $125B OF NEW COPPER ENTERS THE GLOBAL SUPPLY CHAIN YEARLY. THE COPPER IS NEVER CONSUMED AS IS OIL OR GAS. ITS POLLUTIVE FOOTPRINT IS FOUND ONLY AT THE MINE ITSELF. AS THE COPPER IS RECYCLED, ITS INTRINSIC VALUE AND QUALITY NEVER DEGRADES. COPPER IS THUS A 'FOREVER MATERIAL'.  

MANKIND HAS RELIED ON COPPER FOR OVER 10,000 YEARS AS THE FUNDAMENTAL BUILDING BLOCK OF OUR ECONOMIES. WE ARGUE COPPER IS NOT GOING TO BE REPLACED ANY TIME SOON.

​ROUGHLY $4 TRILLION OF COPPER FLOWS THROUGH OUR GLOBAL ECONOMY TODAY. COPPER IS NEVER 'SPENT', RATHER, ONE CAN ARGUE THAT COPPER IS THE REAL FUEL OF OUR GLOBAL SUPPLY CHAIN AND ECONOMY. 

THERE CAN BE NO ECONOMY, LOCAL OR GLOBAL, WITHOUT COPPER. THERE CAN BE NO TRUE SUSTAINABILITY UNTIL THERE IS CLEAN COPPER.

AND DEFINITIVELY, THERE CAN BE NO CIRCULARITY UNTIL CLEAN COPPER.     

​MIDSTREAM RECYCLING IS GALLIANT,
BUT THIS ACHIEVEMENT MASKS THE REAL PROBLEM AND LEAVES COPPER's GROTESQUE AND UNDER REPORTED DESTRUCTIVE AND TOXIC WASTE STREAMS UNATTENDED -- EVEN OFF BOOK AND UNACCOUNTED FOR FOREVER.


IN CLEANING UP COPPER's UPSTREAM, DOWNSTREAM DEMAND FOR CLEAN COPPER UNWITTINGLY WILL CONTRIBUTE TO THE ELIMINATION OF FOSSIL FUELS.

CLEAN COPPER CAN BE THE CATALYST FOR USHERING IN A NEXT GENERATION OF REFINERY SCIENCE BASED ON SOLAR AND HYDROGEN.


​OUR AXIOM: OUR LIVES AND LIVELIHOODS DEPEND UPON COPPER AND COPPER ALONE. AND SUSTAINABILITY AND CIRCULARITY DEPEND UPON CLEAN COPPER.

ADOPT CLEAN COPPER TODAY.

CLEAN COPPER IS THE UBER CATALYST TO A 21st CENTURY INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION HIDDEN IN PLAIN SITE.

BE AMONG THE EARLIEST ADOPTERS. ALLY AS A CHARTER MEMBER OF  THE CLEAN COPPER SUPPLY CHAIN ALLIANCE. BE AMONG THE LEADERS of TRUE CIRCULARITY.

THERE CAN BE NO CIRCULARITY UNTIL THERE IS CLEAN COPPER.

A RECENT MINE TAILINGS DAM DISASTER in PERU
November 26, 2021

"No deaths are reported but the damage is extensive and the release heavily contaminated with arsenic and cyanide,” Lindsay Newland Bowker, executive director of World Mine Tailings Failures, said in a media statement. “This is the 13th of 16 expected catastrophic failures for this decade 2015-2024.”
