After starting up the Mt Cattlin mine and its processing plant producing (∼6% Li 2 O) spodumene concentrate in Western Australia for its Jiangsu lithium carbonate processing plant in China (capacity 17,000 tpa), Galaxy Resources Ltd (Australia) halted its production in July 2012, although the mine is considered still holding a total resource ...
Spodumene; Mining Method: Truck & Shovel / Loader; Production Start: Q3 2024: Mine Life: 21 years (as of Jan 1, 2021) Snapshot: Goulamina is one of the world's largest undeveloped high quality spodumene deposits. In June 2023, Leo Lithium has produced its first Direct Shipped Ore (DSO) at the Goulamina Lithium Project in Mali.
The global lithium resource reserves are 22 Mt (metal) (USGS, 2022), of which 34% are from hard rock lithium mines (Li LJ et al., 2018), mainly including Australia Greenbushes, …
In step 1, to convert spodumene into lithium sulfate (Li 2 SO 4), the raw ore is crushed and separated both mechanically and via floatation.Next, the concentrate undergoes energy- and chemically intensive hot acid-roasting. This process (as shown in Figure 1 below) sees concentrated spodumene powder roasted at 1050°C, cooled, mixed with sulfuric acid, …
