Lithium Australia puts price tag on pilot plant

A large-scale lithium processing pilot plant (LSPP) to test ASX-listed Lithium Australia’s SiLeach technology is expected to cost some $42-million to develop.

The company said on Thursday that the LSPP design used a base annual lithium carbonate production of 2 500 t, which is one-tenth the scale of a full-scale production plant.
