Modern Mining’s core value is environmental stewardship. We believe that metals can be produced in a way that doesn’t damage the environment and doesn’t scar the earth.
We believe in clean energy, clean water and having a positive impact on our earth.
Ethical conduct is a core value of the company. We are R2v3 Certified and (are) E Stewards.
We also strive to understand our impact on customers, supply chain, employees, our local community, and on the environment.
Health and safety are core to our company, and we strive to avoid materials procured from those involved in human rights violations or as a result of conflict.
Modern Mining is a Canadian domiciled company with operations in Raleigh, North Carolina.
The company was founded in Raleigh and initial funds were provided by the angel investor group RTP Capital.
Subsequent financing was provided by more traditional mining and exploration investors who saw the need for green tech metals produced in an environmentally favorable way.
We have designed our business for growth and plan to construct additional concentrator plants closer to sources of raw material. Initial research indicates that our first addition will be a plant on the West coast of USA, this may be followed by one in Canada or Europe and later in Africa.
