U.S. Based Critical Minerals Recovery & Production
America's Critical Minerals Company
PGM Processing, LLC is a privately held U.S. based critical minerals company specializing in the recovery, processing, and production of PGMs and other critical materials from our smelting facility in Duncan, Oklahoma.
Who we are
Founded in 2019, PGM Processing, LLC (PGMP) was built to strengthen domestic critical minerals production and reduce U.S. dependence on foreign supply chains across the critical minerals spectrum.
From our facility in Duncan, Oklahoma, we recover, process, and produce PGMs and other critical materials, delivering essential metals that keep American manufacturing moving.
PGMP offers a complementary U.S. critical metals production capability, having successfully concluded a high-grade titanium alloy production trial with the imminent commencement of a joint antimony test campaign.
The U.S. remains structurally dependent on foreign sources for its critical minerals — importing c. 2 million ounces of PGMs annually, primarily from South Africa and Russia, while relying on foreign actors across the critical minerals spectrum. PGMP is foundational to reducing this dependency.
We utilize plasma arc smelting technology to process complex, critical mineral-bearing materials — including PGMs, titanium alloys, and antimony. Our high-temperature approach enables precision control, optimized metal recovery, and responsible material transformation within a secure industrial environment.
Advanced Smelting Technology
what we do
From 2019 through 2024, PGMP operated as a toll smelter for major industry participants, including Toyota Tsusho, processing critical mineral recycling material through structured smelting arrangements. Building on this foundation, PGMP has successfully concluded a high-grade titanium alloy production trial and is commencing a joint antimony test campaign. Our reputation is built on technical capability, operational reliability, and disciplined material handling.
Proven Track Record
what we do
We are committed to U.S.-based critical minerals production aligned with circular economy principles. By transforming end-of-life and industrial materials into reusable, high-purity metals and critical materials, we support vital domestic supply chains and reduce structural dependence on foreign sourcing.
Domestic & Sustainable
what we do
Critical minerals — from platinum group metals in catalytic converters and fuel cells, to titanium alloys in aerospace and defense, to antimony in ammunition and flame retardants — are essential to modern life and national security. The U.S. remains structurally dependent on foreign sources, creating persistent economic and national-security vulnerabilities. PGMP is building secure, domestic production capacity to ensure these vital materials remain accessible to U.S. manufacturers, leveraging our well-established production capability, technical expertise, and vertical integration across critical mineral supply chains.
