Executive Summary
This NI 43-101 Technical Report Update details the recovery methods for a spodumene project, focusing on the production of battery-grade lithium carbonate, lithium hydroxide, and sodium sulphate. Extensive metallurgical test work conducted by SGS Lakefield between 2010 and 2012 established the process flowsheet, which includes crushing, grinding, flotation, and hydrometallurgical stages. The project targets a daily mill throughput of 3,800 tpd to produce approximately 20,000 tpa of 99.5% lithium carbonate.
The processing configuration incorporates a photometric sorting circuit to reject waste material prior to milling, enhancing feed grade and reducing tonnage. The flowsheet transitions from physical concentration via flotation to chemical processing involving decrepitation, acid roasting, and water leaching. Subsequent purification steps utilize lime, caustic soda, and ion exchange resins to remove impurities before lithium carbonate precipitation.
Project scheduling indicates detailed design engineering commencing in late 2013, with construction planned for early 2014 and first production targeted for mid-2014. The facility design also accommodates potential production of 30,000 tonnes of commercial grade sodium sulphate and 2,000 tonnes of battery grade lithium hydroxide, providing flexibility in product output based on market demand and customer discussions.
