Accepted: Publication on Lithium Processing

The article titled “New Concepts for Lithium Minerals Processing” is now available online at Minerals Engineering. The paper will also appear in one of this year´s Mineral Processing print editions.

The new concept for the enrichment of lithium minerals is offering higher purity and higher yield by applying new processing technologies addressing the specific properties of the pegmatitic host rock. Additional value is created from high quality by-products which will improve the sustainability of mining activity and the overall cost base. Within the new concept, flotation may even be avoided where wet separation techniques are not applicable.
