Keith always said low roast temperature but personally i think our website says it all:-
The results of the PFS highlight that the Cinovec Project has the potential to be the lowest cost hard rock operation globally due to a number of unique advantages:
By-product credits of tin, tungsten and potash;
Ore is amenable to single stage crushing and coarse SAG milling, reducing capital and operating costs, whilst reducing complexity;
Iron content of zinnwaldite allows for cheap wet magnetic processing to produce a lithium concentrate for further processing at high recoveries;
Low temperature roasting and reagent recycling;
Low cost access to extensive infrastructure and low cost grid power;
Local workforce – high skilled and low cost of employment;
Historic mining and chemical plant region – strong support by the local community for job creation in areas that have both historic and current operations;
The deposit lies in a stable jurisdiction that is located centrally to the rapidly expanding electric vehicle industry which is forecast to be the main driver behind increasing lithium consumption; and
Established and transparent mining code.
Have a god weekend ( looking forward to next year:-)
