(OTC:ITRO),
a growing Innovative Greentech Fertilizer, Silver, and Mineral
Producer, today announced that it has received the EDAWN 2019 Small
Company Sustainability Leadership Award.
The
Economic Development Authority of Western Nevada (EDAWN) annually
recognizes primary company leaders in several categories important
to the Northern Nevada
community. Leadership in sustainability is one of
those. EDAWN stated: "Itronics is a cleantech company that
utilizes science and engineering to create and commercialize
recycling, mineral, and nutrient technologies."
According to
EDAWN: "existing primary companies are the
foundation of the Northern Nevada
region. Though they may only account for a small portion of
the companies in the area, they are responsible for creating over
50 percent of the new jobs."
Itronics has
been a member of the community for more than 30 years. It got its
start by developing and commercializing recycling technology that
solved a major water contamination problem for the
community, and is now recognized as a major contributor to saving
the Truckee River and Pyramid Lake Fishery. Itronics developed the
environmentally friendly, Award Winning, GOLD'n GRO fertilizers and
has continued its R&D to develop a portfolio of "Zero Waste"
technologies that are now in various stages of commercial
development. Itronics has received prestigious international
awards, including the
1st International Green
Hero Award, that
recognize
its technology leadership which has brought
visibility to Northern Nevada as a
community favorable for technology development.
The
Company is creating and expanding
its
"Zero
Waste" technology portfolio. These are technologies to
convert silver-bearing concentrates, precious metal-bearing circuit
board scrap (e-waste), and certain types of battery materials to
commercial products. Newly introduced is breakthrough "Rock
Kleen" technology for use in silver/gold mine heap leach tailing
reprocessing to neutralize cyanide and improve residual silver and
gold recovery. Also being introduced is technology to
reduce the uptake of non-nutrient toxic metals from agricultural
soils by vegetable crops and by field grains.
Today the
GOLD'n GRO fertilizers are transforming the Company and are now a
rapidly growing core operation. Portfolio technologies are creating
large-scale long-term profitable growth opportunities for
Itronics.
