PROJECTS
Pioneering the Future of Clean Industry from the Heart of Southeast Asia
EcoMetals is proud to materialize its inaugural project in South Palawan, Philippines, soon, a region renowned as one of Southeast Asia’s richest, yet underutilized, sources of critical minerals. Beneath its verdant terrain lies a treasure trove of laterite ore and non-laterite ore containing:
-
Gold
-
Copper
-
Nickel
-
Cobalt
-
Scandium
-
Manganese
-
Aluminum
-
Iron (Ferrous)
-
Magnesium
-
Rare Earth Elements (REEs) and more
These minerals are indispensable to the world’s most advanced industries—from electric vehicles (EVs) and grid-scale battery storage (BESS) to semiconductors, aerospace, and next-generation strategic Defense systems.
​
As the global race toward electrification and decarbonization accelerates, demand for critical inputs, nickel, copper, platinum, chromite, palladium, and beyond, has reached an unprecedented level.
EcoMetals is positioned to become a future-ready global supplier of these vital materials, offering ethically sourced, ESG-aligned outputs that power clean energy, sustainable mobility, and cutting-edge technology.
​
A New Answer to an Urgent Global Challenge
In a world shaped by geopolitical fragmentation and volatile supply chains, nations are seeking dependable alternatives to monopolized mineral sources. EcoMetals is not just answering that call, we are redefining it.
Our business model is built on:
-
Transparency and traceability
-
Circularity and low-emission processing
-
Inclusive community engagement
We go beyond extraction, we design impact from the source.
​
A National Mandate. A Global Opportunity
With strong policy backing from the Philippine government, which is now championing domestic mineral processing and value-added industries, a historic window has opened. For investors, this is a rare chance to align with a national agenda that prioritizes industrial sovereignty and long-term economic transformation over raw ore exports.
​
Reimagining What’s Possible, Cleanly and Locally
EcoMetals is pioneering a new industrial blueprint: modular, scalable, and environmentally responsible processing plants strategically located near the mine site. These facilities are engineered to transform laterite ore into high-purity materials with:
-
Minimal environmental footprint
-
Low carbon intensity
-
High resource efficiency and circularity
The result? Faster deployment, greater supply chain resilience, and deeper, lasting benefits for the communities and ecosystems at the heart of the value chain.
​
A Call to Global Partners
EcoMetals is fully aligned with the Philippines’ inclusive development strategy and invites like-minded global partners to join our mission. Together, we will:
​
-
Turn mineral wealth into shared prosperity
-
Catalyze regional development
-
Accelerate the global shift to sustainable energy
For visionary investors, this is not just an entry point, it’s an early-mover advantage in a sector poised for exponential growth.

Powering a Cleaner Future with Responsible Nickel Processing
EcoMetals Nextech is leading a bold new chapter in the Philippines’ mineral future, one that transforms the country from an exporter of raw materials into a producer of high-value, ESG-aligned critical metals.
We are advancing the development of a state-of-the-art processing facility that will unlock the full potential of the Philippines’ rich laterite ore reserves, starting in South Palawan and Surigao. By processing locally rather than exporting raw ore, we generate greater economic value, create skilled jobs, reduce environmental impact, and support national industrial growth.
Breaking from the Past - Building for the Future
For decades, Philippine laterite ore, especially nickel, has been shipped offshore, primarily to China, with little benefit retained locally. EcoMetals is changing that.
​
Our modular and scalable processing plant will extract nickel, cobalt, scandium, manganese, and other valuable metals using innovative, low-impact technologies that prioritize circularity, efficiency, and sustainability. This isn’t just an upgrade, it’s a transformation of how minerals are processed, with the Philippines as a global leader.
​
Sustainability Through Innovation
Our progress continues independently, rooted in:
-
In-house metallurgical leadership
-
Public-domain process innovations
-
Locally sourced, validated ore samples
-
Independent, in-country metallurgical testing
This ensures full IP freedom-to-operate (FTO), compliance with Philippine and international environmental laws, and transparency for investors.
Why Invest in EcoMetals?
🔹 Local Value Creation
We’re ending the extract-and-export model by processing ore domestically—capturing more value and empowering host communities through jobs, infrastructure, and reinvestment.
🔹 Sustainability First
We avoid high-waste legacy technologies like HPAL and instead pursue clean, efficient, and ESG-compliant methods designed for the tropical environment.
🔹 Strategic Location
Our project sites—South Palawan and Surigao—are home to some of the world’s highest-grade laterite deposits. We are well-positioned to serve global supply chains for EV batteries, defense tech, clean energy, and aerospace.
🔹 Global Relevance
By producing essential battery and clean tech materials, EcoMetals supports global decarbonization goals, energy security, and resilient supply chains—all while boosting domestic industrial capabilities.
​
🔹 ESG & Carbon Credits
EcoMetals will ensure we are within compliance with the most up-to-date ESG and Carbon Credit framework.
​
​
More Than a Processing Plant—A Platform for National Renewal
EcoMetals is more than a mining initiative. It is a platform for nation-building, climate action, and inclusive prosperity. We are aligning with the Philippines’ bold new policies that champion industrial self-sufficiency and environmental leadership.
​
By investing in EcoMetals, you gain early-mover access to one of the world’s most strategic mineral frontiers, and a stake in shaping a cleaner, smarter, and more equitable future from the ground up.
