Post# of 86
Standard Lithium (TSX.V: SLL) (OTCQX: STLHF) (FRA: S5L), an innovative technology and lithium project development company, has completed the start-to-finish proof of concept of its proprietary modern lithium processing technology. The company was successfully able to directly extract lithium from brine and produce a purified, concentrated intermediate product (LiCl solution). In addition, that LiCl solution was converted to better-than-battery quality lithium carbonate product. The solution was produced by STLHF’s first-of-its-kind Direct Lithium Extraction (“DLE”) demonstration plant and then transferred to the company’s SiFT Pilot Plant in British Columbia for conversion. The final result — a high-purity lithium carbonate — was sent for third-party chemical analysis. “This is an extremely important milestone for Standard Lithium,” said Standard Lithium president and COO Andy Robinson in the press release. “We’ve managed to demonstrate the first of its kind continuous extraction of lithium from Smackover brine, and we’ce converted it into better than battery quality material. Not only that, but we’ve done it at a large scale, which now allows us to keep on working towards commercialization. This proof of concept validates our approach over the past four years, and is testament to the hard work and ingenuity of our deep and diverse technical team.”
