Decarbonizing Comminution: Advancing CoreBurst™ to Continuous Flow
A Technical Briefing hosted by Rockburst Technologies, CEMI, and MICA
About the Webinar
The global push for net-zero emissions requires innovative solutions to reduce the massive energy footprint of heavy industry.
Join the executive team at Rockburst Technologies—in collaboration with the Centre for Excellence in Mining Innovation (CEMI) and the Mining Innovation Commercialization Accelerator (MICA)—for an exclusive technical briefing on the CoreBurst™ platform.
CoreBurst™ represents a fundamental shift in how materials are processed. Instead of relying on inefficient external compressive forces, the technology uses transcritically cycled carbon dioxide to penetrate rock micro-cracks and grain boundaries, generating intense internal tensile forces that fracture the material from within.
In this 45-minute session, we will review our latest research progress, outline our engineering roadmap, and detail the capital efficiency of our current funding milestone.
What You Will Learn
The Physics of Thermodynamic Fracture:
Discover how exploiting a rock's natural tensile weakness shows the potential for substantial energy savings, with lab-scale prototypes projecting reductions of approximately 50% in specific energy consumption compared to traditional ball milling.
Tailings Risk-Reduction:
Get an early look at our ongoing research hypothesis evaluating whether CoreBurst-assisted carbonation can reduce the environmental mobility of heavy metals in mine waste.
In-Situ Carbon Mineralization:
Learn how the high-pressure CO2 environment creates ideal conditions for accelerating carbonation reactions. We will explore our testing on reactive ultramafic ores, which targets a sequestration rate of approximately 160 kg of CO2 per tonne of ore processed.
The FEEP Roadmap & Capital Efficiency:
Understand our commercialization roadmap for advancing the technology from Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 5 toward a continuous-flow proof-of-concept prototype. We will also discuss how our current $2M CAD Seed Round immediately unlocks an additional $1M in secured, non-dilutive matching funds.
