The Swedish magazine "Bergsmannen" has written an article about Chromafora’s work on a gold leaching method that is safer, less harmful to the environment, and can offer profitability advantages for mining companies compared to traditional cyanide leaching.

> “We started with an old leaching method, thiosulfate leaching (S2O32-), which we have combined with our patented metal extraction process SELMEXT, Selective Metal Extraction, for the best results.”
> 
> Johan Berg, Application Manager at Chromafora
