SolSys Mining

Norwegian company researching mineral separation and lunar regolith simulants. Its website describes agriculture, beneficiation and simulant projects using Earth-based regolith simulants; these sources do not establish lunar extraction or commercial resource delivery.

Claimed

An organization's level is recorded separately and is not a ranking of its linked missions' results. How the ladder works.

Resources and evidence

Each resource shows the highest step primary sources support. How the ladder works.

Demonstrated

The reviewed company sources do not establish lunar-surface processing, a flight-ready system or commercial resource delivery.

Claimed or planned

The company describes ELISA as completed mineral-processing and agriculture research and URECa as a follow-on ESA-contracted project with CIRiS. Its LuNOR programme develops lunar soil simulants. Completed URECa outcomes have not been independently established here. ESA independently lists URECa activity 4000148181 with prime contractor SOLSYS MINING in Norway, status Running, Discovery early technology development and a Budget field of €175,000. The budget is not evidence of money paid or company revenue. The description concerns planned tests; no completed outcome is established by that page. CIRiS remains a company-attributed participant.

Open evidence gaps

  • Current registry status and exact registered legal name have not been verified.
  • ESA activity 4000148181 was reviewed, but its captured page gives no start/end dates or completed outcome. Its activity status Running does not establish current corporate status. Its €175,000 Budget is not a payment or company funding total. CIRiS is not named on that ESA page.
  • No flight, lunar processing result or commercial delivery is established by the reviewed sources.
