Itronics Receives Economic Development Authority's Sustainability Leadership Award
RENO, Nevada, Oct. 29, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Itronics Inc. (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.
