Rock Tech Lithium Inc. is pleased to announce that it has engaged ANZAPLAN for further pilot plant testwork.
The Phase 2 pilot plant will provide additional lithium hydroxide monohydrate (“LHM”) customer samples while proving the flowsheet, converting spodumene concentrate into LHM following the industry-standard sulphate route. The feed material for the Phase 2 pilot plant will come from concentrates produced from commercial operations, demonstrating the flowsheet’s ability to receive material currently available in the global market.
“We are excited to be working with ANZAPLAN on our Europe-based lithium hydroxide pilot plant,” said Dirk Harbecke, Rock Tech’s chairman. “ANZAPLAN’s deep understanding of European industry and highly competent team of processing engineers, chemists and geoscientists will be a great asset to Rock Tech as we continue to advance our European lithium hydroxide converter plant.”
