Encouraging test results The company recently reported encouraging lithium metallurgical test results from the McDermitt project in the USA, where test-work confirmed significant increases in lithium grades as well as the removal of carbonate and other acid consuming minerals through attrition scrubbing. The tests were designed to evaluate the potential to further upgrade McDermitt ore and reduce acid consumption by removing carbonate prior to leaching.
