Company Overview

International Zeolite Corp. is a Canada-based mineral and technology company focused on the development, processing, and commercialization of natural zeolite products. The company operates primarily within the industrial minerals, agriculture, environmental remediation, and water treatment industries. Its core business involves extracting and upgrading zeolite-bearing mineral resources and formulating specialized products for soil enhancement, animal health, odor control, and environmental applications.

The company’s primary revenue drivers are sales of processed zeolite products marketed under proprietary formulations, particularly for agricultural and livestock markets. International Zeolite Corp. is strategically positioned as a vertically integrated supplier, controlling its own mineral resource and processing operations, which allows cost control and product customization. The company traces its origins to the acquisition and development of a high-purity zeolite deposit in British Columbia and has since evolved into a producer focused on downstream value-added products rather than raw mineral sales.

Business Operations

International Zeolite Corp. operates through integrated mining, processing, and product distribution activities. Its core operations center on the Sun Group Zeolite Project, which includes quarrying, milling, and micronization of natural zeolite into application-specific products. Revenue is generated through direct sales to agricultural producers, distributors, and industrial customers, with a focus on recurring consumable products rather than one-time bulk mineral sales.

Operations are primarily domestic within Canada, with international sales conducted through distributors and export relationships. The company controls proprietary processing techniques and formulations designed to enhance nutrient retention, moisture control, and toxin absorption. International Zeolite Corp. operates through wholly owned subsidiaries, including International Zeolite Corp. (US), which supports distribution and market development activities in the United States.

Strategic Position & Investments

The company’s strategic direction emphasizes expanding high-margin, value-added zeolite products for agriculture, animal health, and environmental applications. Growth initiatives include scaling processing capacity, developing new formulations for soil regeneration and livestock feed additives, and expanding distribution partnerships in North America and select international markets. Management has publicly emphasized recurring revenue streams tied to sustainable agriculture and environmental compliance trends.

International Zeolite Corp. has historically focused on organic growth rather than large-scale acquisitions, investing capital primarily into processing infrastructure, intellectual property development, and market expansion. Its portfolio is centered on its wholly owned mineral assets and operating subsidiaries rather than diversified equity investments. The company is also involved in emerging applications of zeolite technology related to soil carbon retention, water filtration, and waste remediation, though commercialization timelines vary by market.

Geographic Footprint

International Zeolite Corp. is headquartered in Canada, with its primary mineral assets and processing facilities located in British Columbia. The company’s operational footprint is concentrated in Western Canada, where it maintains mining and processing activities, logistics infrastructure, and administrative functions.

Market presence extends beyond Canada through product sales and distribution partnerships in the United States and select international markets. While international operations are primarily sales-driven rather than asset-heavy, the company positions its zeolite products for global agricultural and environmental markets where regulatory pressure and sustainability initiatives support long-term demand.

Leadership & Governance

International Zeolite Corp. is led by an executive team with experience in mining, mineral processing, and specialty product commercialization. The leadership emphasizes disciplined capital allocation, vertical integration, and long-term development of sustainable mineral-based solutions. Governance is overseen by a board of directors with backgrounds in resource development, finance, and public company management.

Key executives include:

• Ray Paquette – President & Chief Executive Officer
• John Murphy – Chief Financial Officer
• Mark Olson – Director
• Steve Klenner – Director
• Randy Taylor – Director

The leadership’s stated strategic vision centers on transforming a single-asset mineral company into a diversified supplier of branded, value-added zeolite solutions aligned with environmental and agricultural sustainability trends.
