Lepidico L-Max

Lepidico has already successfully completed a mini-plant trial utilising the L-Max^® technology. The mini-plant was run continuously for 140 hours, processing a lepidolite concentrate to produce lithium carbonate with a purity >99.5%. In addition, recoveries of more than 94% were achieved from the leach liquor. Subsequent to this mini-plant trial, Lepidico has also produced various by-products from the leach liquor generated.

Engineering for the Phase 1 L-Max® Plant Feasibility Study, conducted by Lycopodium, continues and is on track for completion by end December 2017. Permitting works have commenced and are scheduled for completion in the September 2018 quarter.
