Providing Metals used in daily life
After years of environmental research and project development, PolyMet is poised to begin mining in Minnesota's Duluth Complex—which contains one of the world’s largest undeveloped non-ferrous metal deposits.
PolyMet will mine and process metals used in daily life, including:
- Copper - construction, plumbing and electric wiring.
- Nickel - stainless steel and rechargeable batteries.
- Cobalt - household magnets and hybrid vehicles.
- Platinum & palladium - catalytic converters that reduce automobile pollution.
- Gold - jewelry, dental and medical applications, computers and electronics.
PolyMet is working to complete the environmental review and permitting in 2010 and expects to begin construction in 2010.
