RZOLV Technologies Completes NRC IRAP-Supported R&D Project for Non-Cyanide Gold Extraction Technology
Vancouver, British Columbia - Newsfile Corp. - June 22, 2026 - RZOLV Technologies Inc. (TSXV: RZL) (OTCQB: RZOLF) (FSE: S711) ("RZOLV" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that its wholly owned operating subsidiary, Innovation Mining Inc.
("Innovation Mining"), has completed its first research and development project supported by the National Research Council of Canada Industrial Research Assistance Program ("NRC IRAP").
Innovation Mining received advisory services and funding from NRC IRAP to support a research and development project focused on the Company's proprietary RZOLV™ non-cyanide gold extraction technology. The completed work included bench-scale evaluation of electrochemical regeneration, reagent-management approaches, and process-control conditions intended to inform future closed-loop testing and pilot-scale evaluation. The project generated internal technical information to support continued process development but did not include commercial-scale demonstration or a determination of commercial performance.
The Company believes completion of the project has strengthened its internal technical capacity and provided additional bench-scale development information to support further evaluation of the RZOLV technology platform.
As a result of the project, the Company has expanded its internal technical capabilities through the addition of two full-time employees to its laboratory team. The Company believes this strengthened in-house capacity will support continued research and development, process optimization, and future scale-up activities.
The Company acknowledges the support of NRC IRAP. Hanif Jafari, Chief Technology Officer of RZOLV Technologies, commented: "The completion of this project was valuable for our team as it allowed the Company to carry out focused bench-scale development work while also expanding our laboratory capabilities through the addition of two full-time technical employees. We are grateful to NRC IRAP for its support and for the guidance provided during the project. We look forward to building on this work through further technical evaluation and development of the RZOLV platform."
The Company intends to continue development work through Innovation Mining, including further technical validation, process optimization, pilot-scale activities, and strategic commercial engagement related to the RZOLV technology platform.
