Lithium chemicals manufacturer Livium, formerly Lithium Australia, will decide by the end of January 2025 whether to proceed with plans to utilise its proprietary technologies to extract lithium from difficult to process ores. Livium is developing technologies to produce lithium chemicals from waste or low-grade sources, with its main technologies LieNA for processing spodumene and…
Lithium ion battery materials group Lithium Australia and Mineral Resources (MinRes) will form a joint venture to commercialise the LieNA process to recover lithium from hard rock spodumene ores. The news comes after Lithium Australia completed the final stage of LieNA piloting activities at the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO) which commenced in…
Lithium ion battery materials company Lithium Australia has commenced pilot plant operations testing its LieNA lithium metal processing technology. Operating the pilot plant, at the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation’s Sydney facility, is through a joint development agreement (JDA) with Mineral Resources Ltd (MinRes). The plant is a key activity to demonstrate the technology…
Lithium production technology developer Lithium Australia and miner Mineral Resources will jointly develop Lithium’s LieNA extraction technology. The two companies signed a joint development agreement which will see MinRes solely fund the development and operation of a pilot plant to cost up to $4.5 million and provide raw materials to test the novel technology. Following…
