LITHIUM ORE POWDER (PETALITE) FROM AFRICA

Petalite is a lithium aluminum silicate similar to spodumene, which studies have shown can be processed via conventional, commercially-proven methods.
This means that petalite and spodumene deposits have a lower development and/or environmental risks than unconventional lithium sources such as lepidolite/zinnwaldite (lithium mica) or clay-hosted deposits, the former of which contains fluorine
Interim metallurgical testwork results indicate an ultra-low impurity petalite concentrate, grading 4.4% Li2O and 0.01% Fe2O3, can be produced from our material
This meets Technical Grade lithium concentrate specifications, which command a premium over Chemical Grade products due to their low impurities
