The company offers core products and services including its patented Chloride Assisted Hydrometallurgical Extraction - Mining (CAHME-M) process for metal recovery; mineral processing facilities such as the Clarkdale, Arizona slag reprocessing plant; e-waste recycling services for circuit boards and electronic scrap; and exploration activities targeting gold and silver deposits in the United States. It operates primarily in the mining and resource recovery sectors, serving industrial clients, mining companies, and environmental remediation markets across North America, with headquarters in Reno, Nevada, founded in 2006.
In recent developments within the last two years, Searchlight Minerals has advanced its Clarkdale facility toward commercial production, achieving key permitting milestones and process optimizations for slag processing; formed strategic alliances with technology partners for e-waste recovery enhancements; and pursued funding through equity offerings and debt facilities to support plant expansions and operational scaling. The company continues to emphasize sustainable mining practices, including tailings remediation and low-emission metal extraction, positioning it for growth in the circular economy segment of the precious metals industry.
