Partner with us to create new value from industrial byproducts
We work with multiple heavy industries
- Mining – strategic, critical and battery minerals like nickel, chromium and PGEs
- Steel – BOF, EAF and LMF steel slag
Heavy industry
Why partner with Arca?
Improving project economics

Partnering with Arca generates new revenue from high integrity carbon removal credits
Carbon removal credits produced through mineralization command a premium, with the average price of a tonne of carbon removed in excess of US$300 per tonne (cdr.fyi).
High prices and rising demand are creating a multibillion-dollar opportunity for heavy industry and mining.
