About RENEW Commodities Ltd. 

Chad and Paul formed RENEW COMMODITIES LTD. in 2021 with a common vision that the building blocks to feed and support a growing world were still awaiting discovery. We sought to take part in the renewal and reinvigoration of new resource exploration in the northern Rockies, after years of inactivity in the district.


We started looking for limestone in the northern Rockies. Here in our backyard, the topographic relief of the Rocky Mountains provides a window into 600 million years of sedimentation, exposing geological strata that elsewhere across the prairies and plains are buried beneath hundreds of meters of younger rock.


The Triassic-age limestone units which Chad and Paul are exploring in northeast B.C. are thrust to the surface in the front range of the Rocky Mountains, providing opportunities for low-cost and low-impact - and quarrying across hundreds of meters of exposure.

 

Our exploration efforts in 2021 resulted in the discovery of our Windfall property, a chemical grade limestone prospect in the Bullmoose Valley, between Tumbler Ridge and Chetwynd, B.C. Here, high purity Mississippian aged limestone of the famous Rundle formation outcrops on an existing forest service road and active cut-block, representing a near-term prospect on market-ready infrastructure, strategically located outside of parks and wildlife reserves.

Through the exploration and development of the northern Rocky Mountain's world-class LIMESTONE resources, Renew Commodities Ltd. is building a greener and stronger Western Canada. 
 
Limestone has a critical role to play in the modern economy:

  • It serves an integral role in the construction industry, where it is used in concrete production and as an aggregate. Many famous landmarks (e.g., the Empire State Building, the Canadian Parliament, the Lincoln Memorial) are made of limestone.

  • Limestone is also needed to replenish soil fertility in the Prairies, the breadbasket of the world, mitigating and reversing soil acidity to enhance yields.  

  • Limestone restores soil alkalinity and mitigates clubroot disease in canola fields. 

  • Limestone also has an integral role to play as a means of carbon mitigation for upstream emitters in the energy, industrial and power generation sectors. Limestone is proving to be a critical component of emergent carbon capture sequestration technologies, and has potential as a carbon sink via accelerated weathering methods. Using similar principles, limestone, applied as slurry, to an oil and gas flare stacks can significantly reduce sulfur dioxide pollution.

  • Limestone rip rap and aggregates are used to mitigate the effects of acid generating rock associated with civil construction through wetlands, rivers and environmentally sensitive zones.

  • Limestone can remediate and detoxify soil polluted by chemicals.

 

Limestone is also a very important source rock for enormous oil and gas deposits, as well as deposits of gold, zinc and iron. Carbonate (limestone) host rocks, in the Rocky Mountains and northern plains may hold the generational resources of energy and metals needed for the next century of Canadian prosperity.

 

At Renew Commodities Ltd., we are committed to becoming leaders at the regional geology of the limestone stratigraphy of the Northern Rockies. Here the sedimentary rocks of the plains were exposed to the energizing geological processes of Mesozoic and Tertiary aged continent-building processes and offer overlooked potential for limestone-hosted minerals (e.g., zinc, gold) and complex structurally trapped natural gas reservoirs.

 

Renew Commodities Ltd. is becoming a clearinghouse for knowledge on all things limestone in the northern Canadian plains, supporting natural resource exploration and development.
