The Minex is a hybrid. It's not brazed like a CBE (compact brazed heat exchanger). It has the gasket of a PHE (plate and frame heat exchanger), but it's small, so it does not need the typical support frame of a PHE.

The gaskets and plates and can be made from various materials. Even if a costlier, high-performance metal is required for the heat transfer surface, the front and back plates can be made of baser materials to redue costs. The snap-in-place connections allow the use of different metals without the risk of weld deteriotation. They also allwo for easier assembly.
