Ross has had more than 35 years experience in the mining industry. He has worked as a miner and geologist in coal and mineral exploration, mining operations, mineral processing, and mine finance.
It was during an attempt to stabilize and add value to gold mine tailings, by using them to produce ceramic products, that he developed the Ceramext technology. The first tiles successfully produced using Ceramext technology were made with a prototype machine built by Ross in his Pollock Pines, CA garage. Subsequently he found that other materials, such as coal fly ash, also made excellent ceramic products.
Ceramext, LLC has worked with several ceramic engineers and material scientists to successfully build pilot plants using the Ceramext® technology. Several thousand square feet of tile, up to one foot square, have been produced in these plants and have been installed in commercial and residential buildings.
