Itronics Snapshot
Mary, Mary, quite contrary, how does your garden grow? Silver (recycled) from X-rays and photowaste turns plants green all in a row. Itronics operates its two business segments through subsidiaries. Itronics Metallurgical recycles photochemicals and turns the results into its GOLD'n GRO animal repellent and liquid fertilizer. GOLD'n GRO products are sold primarily in the western US. Another subsidiary, Whitney & Whitney, provides mineral planning and technical services (mineral economics, geologic studies, and project management services) to the mining industry. In 2009 the company expanded its silver refining capacity from 24,000 to 2.4 million ounces per year, significantly cutting its operating expenses.
