The release states the event is invite-only and is jointly hosted by the Embassy of Canada to Spain and the regional government of Andalucia. President and CEO Ross Orr noted in the announcement that Spain represents one of Europe's most significant mining jurisdictions and that its legacy tailings present both an environmental challenge and what the company characterises as an untapped resource.

BacTech's Zero-Tailings™ Technology and Its European Market Push

BacTech describes itself as a leader in commercial bioleaching, using naturally occurring bacteria to recover valuable metals while stabilising harmful elements such as arsenic. The company's Zero-Tailings™ process carries patent-pending status. According to the release, the company received research funding from several Canadian government and institutional sources, including Natural Resources Canada and the Ontario Centre of Innovation. The Seville engagements represent BacTech's effort to introduce its technology platform to operators, policymakers, and potential partners across the Iberian Peninsula.
