Century Lithium Corp. (TSXV: LCE | OTCQX: CYDVF) has received equipment for a Li-Pro™ process for direct lithium extraction from Koch Technology Solutions’ (KTS). The KTS equipment has been installed and is now operating at Century Lithium’s Lithium Extraction Facility in Amargosa Valley, Nevada, USA.
The collaboration between Century Lithium and KTS involves a field trial of KTS’ Li-Pro™ equipment to treat the process solutions generated at the pilot plant in the leaching of bulk sample claystone collected from the company’s Clayton Valley Lithium Project. Following successful installation, operation of KTS’ equipment reportedly went smoothly throughout an initial seven-day start-up. Results from the programme will enable KTS to provide engineering and cost data to Century Lithium for a full-scale installation of the DLE plant in Century Lithium’s Project.
