Hecla Mining (HL) shares are in focus after NVRO Metals Limited announced a non-binding memorandum of understanding with Hecla Greens Creek Mining, a wholly owned subsidiary, to process 35,000 tonnes of tailings. The agreement, disclosed July 8, outlines a framework to use NVRO's proprietary process at the planned NVRO Metals Hub in Australia.
The partnership aims to demonstrate the commercial viability of NVRO's technology using Hecla's material, a step toward reaching Technology Readiness Level 9. The collaboration is designed to validate the Metals Hub as a centralized processing platform for large-scale third-party feedstocks.
The initiative depends on completing a smaller 20-tonne demonstration campaign in Perth, plus the final acquisition and commissioning of the Metals Hub. Both companies target satisfying those requirements by the end of December.
Hecla Mining is the largest primary silver producer in the U.S. and Canada, also producing gold, lead, and zinc. It operates mines in Alaska, Idaho, and Canada.
