Advanced Processing of Tungsten • Sovereign Supply Chain
High-Performance Tungsten. Processed Domestically.
PMIC is establishing a vertically integrated, domestic supply chain for high-performance tungsten components. Leveraging 60-Ton Axial Compaction and 2200°C Vacuum Sintering, we provide the Advanced Processing of Tungsten required for Canada's Defence and Critical Minerals strategies.
Core Capabilities
- Compaction: Custom Tooling & High-Volume Pressing
- MIM: Complex geometries for ordnance & aerospace
- Refining: Future integration (Scheelite → Powder)
Phase 1: Manufacturing (Revenue)
Establishing immediate production capacity for Tungsten Carbide wear parts. Sourcing high-grade powder to produce revenue-generating parts with a 6-week lead time for the Energy & Defense sectors.
Commercial Operations
- 1Feedstock Sourcing (North American Supply)
- 2Axial Compaction of Wear Buttons
- 3Sintering & Finishing (Ready-to-Install)
Focus: Generating cash flow via high-volume part production.
Industrial Applications
We specialize in Custom Designed Wear Parts tailored to your specific industrial requirements.
Phase 2: Capacity Scale-Up
Deploying industrial-scale automation to increase throughput. Leveraging revenue and federal incentives to expand press tonnage and sintering volume.
Production Growth
- Commissioning of additional 2200°C furnaces
- Automated robotic handling for presses
- Installation of dedicated MIM moulding cells
Outcome: A dominant domestic node for tungsten component manufacturing.
Phase 3: Vertical Integration
The long-term vision: Integrating domestic ore refining. As Canadian mines (e.g., Mactung Project) come online (~2030), PMIC will commission its chemical refining plant to process Scheelite concentrate directly.
Strategic Sourcing
- Commissioning of APT Refining Plant
- Direct off-take agreements with Canadian mines
- Full "Ore-to-Part" traceability for Defense
Ideal for: Securing the absolute lowest cost basis and supply security.
Strategic Funding Roadmap
Year 0-1: Manufacturing
Focus: Immediate Revenue & Part Production.
Funded via "Founding Partner" sales. Sourcing qualified powder to produce Tungsten Carbide inserts and weights.
- Qualification Pilot Program
- Press & Sinter Operations
- Revenue Generation
Year 1-2: Expansion
Focus: Throughput & Automation.
Reinvesting revenue and utilizing Clean Tech ITCs to scale production capacity and reduce unit costs.
- Additional Press Capacity
- Automated Inspection
- Defense Qualification (MIM)
Year 2-3: Heavy Industry
Focus: Mining & Forestry Scale.
Deploying Isostatic Pressing (CIP) to manufacture large-scale wear liners, chipper knives, and heavy shielding.
- Crusher Liners & Plates
- Forestry Chipper Knives
- Radiation Shielding Billets
Year 3+: Integration
Focus: Vertical Refining (2030+).
As domestic mines (Mactung Project) come online, PMIC integrates upstream refining to capture full margin.
- APT Plant Commissioning
- Ore-to-Part Sovereignty
- Global Export
