About DSTI

The cyanide-free gold extraction process developed by DSTI, has been recognized as a “green technology” for which it has been awarded to date, $5,700,000 in grants of which $700,000 has been provided by the Government of Quebec and $5,000,000 from the Sustainable Development Technology Fund of Canada for the construction of a demonstration plant.

Over the last ten years DSTI has tested over 50 different gold deposits, both oxide and sulfide ores at the lab level and at its pilot plant. These tests have, consistently achieved gold recoveries in excess of 90%, using chlorination instead of cyanide. In addition, the tailings from the process are inert from toxic substances and as result meet environmental norms. An independent engineering study completed within the last 12 months supports DSTI’s claim of having operated a pilot plant showing a gold extraction yield higher than 90% using a closed-circuit chlorination process.

To date the Company has obtained 25 patents in 19 countries for its technologies for the extraction of precious metals and base metals as well as the neutralization of arsenic and production of fertilizer and has 14 pending patent applications worldwide for its technologies.
