NIBI-CLEAR

Clarity begins at the source

Every drop of water carries a story. Of land, of people, of resilience. 

At Nibi-Clear, we unite Indigenous knowledge and nuclear science to read that story with atomic precision.

Through neutron activation analysis, we reveal what’s hidden beneath the surface, returning truth, data, and power to the Nations who protect these waters.

What does Nibi-Clear mean?

It starts with “Nibi”, the Anishinaabemowin word for water. Water is life, spirit, and connection. It reflects our foundation in community and our respect for Indigenous teachings that guide how we care for the land and each other.

Clear means more than just clean, it’s about clarity. Clarity in data, in decisions, and in the right of every Nation to control its own environmental information.

But it’s also a nod to “nuclear”, a reminder that the same scientific precision used to understand atoms can also protect our waters. Using Neutron Activation Analysis (NAA), we measure trace contaminants down to the parts-per-billion, making the invisible visible.

That’s who we are: culturally grounded, scientifically rigorous, and deeply committed to protecting water and sovereignty, with clarity at every scale, from nucleus to Nation.
