Lithium Australia (ASX:LIT) BUSTS THE HF MYTH​ There has been a lot of speculation about Lithium Australia’s 100% owned Sileach™ process, designed for the recovery of lithium from silicates. There is speculation that Sileach™ uses very toxic reagents, in particular hydrofluoric acid (HF).We can tell you Sileach™ does not use HF and the main fluorine product produced is hexafluorosilicic acid which is commonly used as a source of fluoride for fluoridation of domestic water supplies – if you think that is dangerous, you had better stop drinking water! MYTH BUSTED​ INDEPENDENT SAFETY ASSESSMENTANSTO Minerals (ANSTO - a division of the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organization) has been conducting pilot testing of the Sileach™ process. Prior to commissioning the pilot plant ANSTO conducted a thorough investigation of the processes and safety aspects and approved operation on the basis of negligible HF risk (none in the case of processing lepidolite, a common lithium mica).Lithium Australia has undertaken all Sileach™ pilot tests under the most stringent safety conditions and has monitored for HF and, as predicted by ANSTO, found that negligible quantities are produced during processing. Independent safety investigations have concluded that operating with hot sulphuric acid is a much greater hazard than the risk of HF in the Sileach™ process.THE BENEFITS OF HALOGENSThe addition of halogens allows the process to be operated at significantly lower temperatures to achieve the same result as comparable sulphuric acid leach systems thus improving overall safety.PATENT APPLICATIONSLithium Australia is currently subject of confidentiality afforded by various intellectual property laws. Disclosure of further detail may prejudice the outcome of patent applications and as a consequence, exact details of the processing system remain commercial in confidence.SILEACH™ IS NOT USING HF AS A REAGENTYou can get further information from:https://lithium-au.com/  or[email protected]RegardsAdrian GriffinManaging Director ​ ​
