Jack Lifton, consultant for NovX21, commented:
It was the first time in my long career as a researcher and executive in the OEM automotive supply industry that I encountered an industrial-scale non-smelting process for extracting precious metals of the platinum group without equipment corrosion or chlorine leaks. I look forward to meeting investors and expressing my confidence in the NovX21 technology and its multiple commercial applications.
