Patrick Cheetham, executive chairman of Sunrise Resources (LON:SRES), tells Proactive they're to throw their full weight behind the CS Pozzolan project in Nevada after a concept study confirmed its potential.
Interest in pozzolan is growing as a natural and greener alternative to Portland cement and especially in the US where traditionally manufacturers have used fly ash from coal-fired power stations as a key ingredient.
Tests at CS have shown it is a potentially large deposit of perlite, an industrial mineral which expands on heating to a lightweight material with multiple industrial uses.
''We're in the process of putting in our applications for drilling ... so we hope to be on the ground in a month'', Cheetham tells Andrew Scott.
