Andromeda Metals has obtained its first national patent in South Africa for a proprietary process to produce high-purity alumina (HPA) from kaolin. This patent strengthens the company's intellectual property as it advances commercialisation of its HPA business, targeting markets like lithium-ion batteries and semiconductors. The company has demonstrated pilot-scale production of HPA with 99.9986% purity and is pursuing additional patents and market development, including a supply agreement aimed at the US market. A 2025 study highlighted the project's potential scale and strong financial returns, supporting Andromeda's strategy to offer a lower-cost, lower-carbon HPA production method.
