For me I think it would be great if AVZ can get to making and exporting either PLS or LiOH - the volume of material to be transported from mine site to customers otherwise I think will add significantly to the opex and reduce our profit margins too greatly. It also would be far more attractive as a product from a sustainability and embedded carbon perspective if far less material required transporting for long distances.

Re stages of development for mid stream processed materials, I think the WA operation is a little past R&D stages … last I checked there were announcements about the BATMn electric calcination kiln of Calix design successfully converting fine grained lower grade feedstock (less valuable for export as spod) into battery grade PLS and expecting in the order of 90% reduction in spod transportation to customers. They’d got to a scoping study for a commercial scale pilot plant with expectation of scoping study running into later 2021 then on to a PFs and onwards.

AVZ I think had last announced in January that a bench scale test of flowsheet processes undertaken by a Canadian lab confirmed the PLS process worked for AVZ spod such that 1.5kg of 80% Lithium Sulpfate mono hydrate had been produced from about 9kg of spod feedstock. I’ve heard nothing further though re scaling up that process but of course it is within stages 1B and 2 of the AVZ proposed flowsheet.

They both seem to be heading in a similar direction which is why I’m interested in both.
