Platyplysmic ann!! 

'This work indicates that material reductions in both capital cost – estimated at more than US$10 million for 5,000tpa of lithium hydroxide – and operating cost should be achieved using LOH-MaxTM.'

'Such cost advantages mean that LOH-MaxTM has application in the final processing of a broad range of lithium concentrates sourced from both hard rock, including spodumene and sedimentary hosted deposits.'

Accordingly, Lepidico sees opportunity for licensing this process technology to the growing number of lithium chemical producers.

'Work has commenced to adapt the final process stages of Lepidico’s Pilot Plant development to include a LOH-MaxTM circuit. The Pilot Plant remains on schedule and within budget and no delay is currently perceived for the commissioning of the facility in April 2019 and operation in May, as a result of incorporating LOH-MaxTM'
