A new method to recover In, Ga, and Ge from zinc smelting

CMI researchers at Colorado School of Mines created a new method to recover In, Ga, and Ge from zinc smelting

Proposed processing of zinc ferrite residue from zinc smelting yields separate streams for the critical materials Ga, In, and Ge while also producing revenue from increased Zn recovery.
