A surface composite sample of approximately 200 kg was provided from the Jackpot main zone and shipped to an independent laboratory in
The Main spodumene-bearing composite sample contained 1.72% Li2O and 0.29% Fe2O3.
A HLS (Heavy Liquid Separation) concentrate at 2.80 SG (Specific Gravity) resulted in 6.0% Li2O concentrate and a high Li recovery of 81.5%.
A low Fe2O3 grade (0.76 %) was achieved without magnetic separation.
The initial results confirm lithium recovery can be even further improved by flotation operation and/or DMS (Dense Media Separation).
Additional metallurgical tests will be conducted to confirm these results.
The Jackpot Lithium project is located approximately 40 km North of the town of
