criticalrawmaterial.net is a website of the MMRR Group. This multi and interdisciplinary group works mainly in hydrometallurgical and/or biohydrometallurgical processes (ore, concentrate, tailings, plant products and by-products, industrial wastes) with 30 group member and 17 full-time researchers as group members. Its mission is to ensure the recovery of base & precious metals and rare earth elements in order to develop technological ability and enhance the competitiveness and contribute in national and international level for the problems of analysis, consulting and training.So that it aims to become one of the leading R&D and P&D group in Turkey and Europe.
