Ann: L-Max Pilot Plant Development Commenced, page-66

The leach and impurity removal skids have been connected to power and wet commissioning of the leach skid commenced on 15 April 2019 (Figure 3).It is envisaged that it will take between five and six weeks to program and calibrate all drives, pumps and instruments. Once this is achieved slurry concentrate will start to be fed to the leach circuit, planned for late May 2019. Once the L-Max® circuit is fully charged it is planned to be run continuously for ten days at a rate of approximately 15kg/hr, producing lithium carbonate as well as sulphate of potash (SOP), and the S-MaxTM circuit will produce amorphous silica.



This was released on the 17th of April , which means if on time, it will begin next week or the one after. The ten days of continuous processing ending after the LPDRB rights close making them the treasure they should be if this all works!
