What we do

Maverick BioMetals extracts lithium, other battery metals, and rare earth elements from hard rock using engineered enzymes. Our process is more cost effective and greener (reduced environmental contaminants and CO2 emissions) than the current acid roasting extraction method.

We believe in a world powered by sustainable energy. Lithium and other metals are necessary for a sustainable energy transition which requires responsible metal extraction and processing. We are a small, driven team with strong startup vibes.
