ANZAPLAN has been retained by European Lithium Limited. (ASX: EUR) to manage process design for its Wolfsberg lithium project located in Austria. This is to be followed by pilot trials to produce larger quantities of concentrate forming a basis for engaging with offtake partners and the downstream testing of the conversion of lithium carbonate and lithium hydroxide for technical and battery use.
The Wolfsberg project is close to the largest lithium import markets in the European Union, which is a major lithium importer, consuming a quarter of the global market volume, second only to China. It is ideally located to serve the surging lithium demand with e.g. Samsung’s SDI Battery Systems (SDIBS) plant in Graz, Austria being in close proximity of the project. Concentrates could also be marketed to the glass-ceramic producers in Europe that are currently importing material from Australia and South America.
