Sky Quarry Inc. SKYQ

We operate a regional refinery (the Eagle Springs Refinery) producing diesel, vacuum gas oil (VGO), naphtha and liquid paving asphalt from crude oil suppliers in the Uintah basin near Nevada and Utah. In addition to our goal of growing the refinery, we have a separate division in the development-stage (P.R. Springs) formed to deploy technologies to facilitate the recycling of waste asphalt shingles and remediation of oil-saturated sands and soil, providing sustainable refined crude products. We anticipate several benefits from the recycling and production of oil from asphalt shingles reducing the dependence on landfills for the disposal of waste and reducing dependence on foreign oil.

We have developed a process for separating oil from oily sands and other oil-bearing solids utilizing a proprietary solvent, which we refer to as our ECOSolv technology or the ECOSolv process. The solvent is used in a closed-loop distillation and evaporation circuit which results in up to 99% of the solvent being recoverable for continuous reuse and requires no water. The solvent has demonstrated oil separation rates of up to 95% in bench testing using samples of both mined crushed ore and ground asphalt shingles. Bench testing was conducted in house, and through unaffiliated third parties which were completed in May and August 2022.
