Project Overview
NiVolt Technologies Inc. (NiVolt), an incubated company within Kinterra’s portfolio, is developing processing technology designed to produce high-purity nickel and cobalt products, including mixed hydroxide precipitate (MHP), nickel sulphate, cobalt sulphate and precursor cathode active material (pCAM), for the battery materials supply chain. NiVolt aims to provide a reliable, scalable source of refined battery chemical to meet accelerating demand from the electric vehicle and energy storage sectors. The project is anchored by an innovative hydrometallurgical flowsheet that integrates proven process steps into a novel configuration - optimized for efficiency, scalability, and cost competitiveness. This approach enables the production of mixed hydroxide precipitate (MHP) and other high-purity nickel and cobalt products, establishing a next-generation processing platform that redefines how nickel sulphide concentrates are refined.
NiVolt has successfully demonstrated its proprietary technology on nickel sulphide concentrate from the Dumont Nickel Project as well as other various blends of nickel sulphide concentrates for potential application. NiVolt continues to develop its downstream processing technology with ongoing programs focused on production of value-added battery chemical products, such as nickel sulphate, cobalt sulphate and pCAM, from nickel and cobalt intermediate products. NiVolt’s capacity will be supported by long-term nickel sulphide concentrate supply agreements, ensuring reliable feedstock and stable economics. By creating a fully integrated processing solution for battery raw materials, NiVolt is positioned as a technology-first platform that enhances supply chain resilience.
Strategic Holdings
Our strategic holdings represent critical material projects and associated infrastructure that are essential to the modern economy. We invest in assets with scale, resilience, and clear development pathways, working alongside strong local partners to unlock long-term value.
Nion Nickel's Dumont Nickel Project is one of the world’s largest undeveloped nickel sulphide deposits, fully permitted and feasibility-stage, with the potential to integrate into a sustainable critical mineral supply chain in North America.
Kinterra’s acquisition of Cannon Resources Pty Ltd. added the Fisher East Project to Kinterra’s portfolio. Fisher East is one of Australia’s highest-grade undeveloped nickel sulphide assets.
New World Resources' Antler Project is a high-grade, development-stage underground copper project with strong economics, a clear permitting pathway, and significant potential to become a leading U.S. copper supplier.
In 2023, Kinterra’s Fund I secured a majority stake in White Pine Copper LLC, positioning the firm at the forefront of one of the largest undeveloped copper projects in the United States. Building on a legacy of historic production, the White Pine North Project combines scale, existing infrastructure, and strong community roots to advance a new chapter in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula mining history.
Kinterra’s Fund I strengthened its U.S. copper portfolio in late 2024 with the acquisition of the Southwest Open Pit Project, one of the nation’s most advanced, fully permitted undeveloped copper assets. Positioned for long-term growth and strategic importance, the project combines scale, strong economics, and a clear path toward construction.
The Pumpkin Hollow underground copper mine in Nevada is a permitted, restart-stage asset with 2 billion pounds of copper resources, established infrastructure, and strong community support, and is positioned to deliver long-life, reliable North American production.
