The pilot program is being completed by SGS Canada at Lakefield, Ontario. SGS has extensive experience in developing spodumene concentration flowsheets. Over the last ten years, SGS has operated pilot plants for several Canadian hard rock lithium deposits.
Approximately 5.5 tonnes of mineralised pegmatite ore was collected during the Phase 3 drilling program in December 2017. The diamond drill core was assayed and stagecrushed to the appropriate particle size to feed the pilot plant. Two composite pilot plant feed samples have been prepared to represent Years 0 to 5 and Years 5+ of the operation. The pilot plant flowsheet comprises grinding, de-sliming, magnetic separation, mica and spodumene flotation. The pilot plant is scheduled to operate for 100 hours at a feed rate of 50 kg/hour.
The objectives of the piloting program are to produce a 6% Li20 concentrate at recoveries of greater than 80% and confirm:
1. Finalisation of the flowsheet and processing parameters for spodumene concentrate production developed during the Pre-Feasibility Study;
2. Produce engineering data for equipment sizing and plant design; and
3. Generation of spodumene concentrate for downstream lithium carbonate testing and marketing purposes.
The data collected from the piloting program will be incorporated into the Definitive Feasibility Study which is expected to be completed during the 2Q 2018.
Mr Corey Nolan, Chief Executive Officer, commented that "The objective of the pilot program is to further refine the design and confirm the operating parameters for the Authier process plant, in order to de-risk the plant construction, commissioning and ramp-up. The Company is focused on the rapid progression of the project towards production to capitalise on the strong projected price outlook for spodumene concentrates.”

Critical Metals and Neometals para construir una planta europea sostenible de producción de vanadio en Finlandia
14 de diciembre de 2020
Las empresas australianas crítico Metales Ltd . y Neometals Ltd. han elegido la ciudad de Pori en Finlandia como la ubicación preferida para su instalación sostenible de recuperación y producción de vanadio en Europa ("Planta de recuperación de vanadio" o "VRP").
Los compromisos de Critical Minerals Ltd. y la ciudad de Pori se han formalizado en un memorando de entendimiento ("MOU"). El Memorando de Entendimiento establece el marco bajo el cual las partes trabajarán juntas para la concesión de permisos y permisos requeridos para el establecimiento exitoso de la planta de procesamiento de vanadio propuesta (“Instalación de Recuperación de Vanadio” o “VRF”).
Como se anunció anteriormente, Neometals ha firmado un acuerdo de colaboración con Critical, para evaluar conjuntamente la viabilidad de construir un VRF para recuperar y producir productos de vanadio de alta pureza a partir de subproductos de acero que contienen vanadio ("escoria") en Escandinavia . Neometals financiará y administrará las actividades de evaluación hasta la consideración de una decisión de inversión final que, si es positiva, le otorgará a Neometals una participación del 50% en una empresa conjunta incorporada con Critical (“JV”).
Critical ha firmado un acuerdo condicional ("Acuerdo de suministro de escoria") con SSAB EMEA AB y SSAB Europe Oy , subsidiarias de SSAB AB , un productor de acero que opera acerías en Escandinavia. La escoria es un subproducto de las operaciones de fabricación de acero de SSAB. El Acuerdo de suministro de escoria proporciona una base segura para la evaluación de un VRF potencial capaz de procesar 200.000 toneladas de escoria por año sin la necesidad de construir una mina y un concentrador como los productores primarios existentes.
El puerto de Tahkoluoto en Pori es una excelente ubicación. Es un puerto libre de hielo con capacidad para recibir barcos del tamaño de Panamax. Con la larga historia de Pori como centro de excelencia hidrometalúrgica, el VRF tendrá acceso a la mejor logística e infraestructura de su clase. Además, el gobierno finlandés parece extremadamente motivado para brindar un apoyo significativo para alinearse con los objetivos de la UE de emisiones 'Net Zero' y el desarrollo de cadenas de suministro resistentes para minerales críticos.
Con una ubicación elegida para el sitio de procesamiento, Neometals ahora puede confiar en información relacionada con el sitio de alta calidad y oportuna que se incluirá en el estudio de factibilidad preliminar AACE Clase 4 ("PFS"). El PFS está progresando bien y sigue en camino de completarse a fines de junio de 2021.
