Gordon Stein, CFO of CleanTech Lithium, explains why CTL acquired the 23 Laguna Verde licenses. Watch the video here.
A healthy 5% jump in Lithium Hydroxide prices on SMM today ~ up $2,000/t -> US$40,000/t
Theo, the professional FUD merchant, Not one of his "Imminent insolvency" predictions has ever come true,
Pretends to have a personal gripe with PA, yet can not even cite one instance where or when ~ gutless and petty as would rather sacrifice the UK' ROW's chances of escaping China's Monopoly than put up or shut up !
More like a Yellow flag,
Yet another 'Talk Fest"; The UK Government certainly leads the World in Hot Air Generation !
Mothballed ! That implies that the Company put it into care and maintenance ! how much equipment did they have to leave behind ! So much for being the 'Richest RE deposit in the World'. A Pig living in a stable is still a Pig,
dumbo; you have not yet told us how they are going to run a cix plant with 0.2% colloidal gypsum in the feed ?
let alone how they are going to handle the toxic heavy metals ? if they are going to leave them in a new stack, that is not removing them from the environment ! ****** !!!
You are a Twat Dumbo, So you are no longer an MKA holder ? Have given up on Burundi and using mining technology to re-process waste dumps is not MINING !!! Again clearly you have no concept of what Mining is ~ So why are you here polluting a mining forum ! A total and complete idiot in my books ?
Yet another statement by Dumbo, demonstrating that he knows nothing about Mining !
Hint: It is what they initially tried to do at Gakara by cherry picking the Ore. 68% ? What a joke !
Dumbo, Yes your fond of repeating yourself ! Didn't they also call that operation in Burundi a "Pilot Plant" ~ it was a spectacular failure despite their claims of having "the richest" RE ore in the World, and it clearly did not generate a 'Profit" as they failed to pay their Taxes, The SA Government will be keeping a closer eye on them this time.
Run it in a Lab, good for them :) I never said it would not run in a Lab where everything is thoroughly cleaned after each run ~ But I have yet to see any claim that they achieved steady state conditions for days at a time ! Word is they can't maintain continuous processing ~ I certainly believe them before I would believe a dimwit no nowt who has not gotten anything right for at least the last three years. Just ask Jack.
Dumbo, If you think ANSTO are any smarter than Livermore, then my opinion of your mental capacity has just diminished even further ! You say your a failed Insurance salesman so you should be able to follow the arithmetic:
Target Production 1847tpa Magnetic RE's or 5tpd
From a feed stock containing 30%MRE of the 0.44% TREO ~ 0.15%Magnetics
At 60% Recovery that comes down to 0.1% Magnetics ie 1Kg/t
So they will need to process 1.9Mtpa to achieve their objective
Now look at the Size distribution graphs for Gypsum ~ 0.5% is typically under 1um and 0.1% under 0.5um
So if you are processing 5,000tpd of Stack material, (to get 5tpd MRE's) you will also be getting 25tpd of colloids thru the plant. Ever seen the Crust around an Artesian bore ? most of that is Gypsum !!!!
As I keep on telling you the CIX/CIC process has been well used for decades, But RBW & K-tech have yet to work out how to get it working continuously in real world conditions. Colloids clog capillaries Just ask Jack :)
Dumbo your a complete Twat, yes they will dissolve the RE's out with acid ~ next step ? Filter out the leachate, but colloidal Gypsum will go straight thru those filters; and the larger sizes will clog the Filters up quick time. As I said earlier the process was used by Livermore and is well documented. It works well at Lab scale and for small high value batch runs but nobody has yet to get it working at Industrial scales. Jack has been trying for over 20 years and he is still a failure soaking up any sponsor's cash :)
Dumbo; I never said the Process does not work ~ that would be a Lie; it is in fact well proven and was used for many years to process Uranium (so it is certainly not 'Propriety'); The problem is that they are trying to use it on an Ore with Gypsum in it ~ notorious for its Colloidal size fraction and its ability to rapidly clog up filters, capillary tubes etc. At the production rates RBW are proposing they will be lucky to run the plant for more than a day before they have to strip it down to clean everything. What works in theory often fails in real life - You should know that !
Sundrum, Not only does the Hypocrite source his information from the Village idiot, he fails to see his own failures ~ how many times has he predicted the 'imminent' collapse of Pensana only to be proven wrong ? Even now he is repeating his doom & gloom prophesy when operating funds are assured for at least Two years !!! A complete failure in my books, but I guess he is only reporting what he is paid to ~ clearly he is only allowed to say what his Masters tell him to say !
Lizard, Don't you realise that all of the Hypocrite's Research comes straight from Dumbo ? ~ Despite years of development the Technology RBW is proposing to use has still not managed to work on a commercial scale because it quickly clogs up when Colloidal particles are present ~ and what better Matrix to use for your 'Ore' than Gypsum which typically has at least 0.5% particles under 10um ~ Just ask Jack

I am sure he will tell us, once he has got past the title pages ~ 2025 perhaps ?
