Solution purification and valuable by-products formation during the production of batterygrade lithium from micas. MRIWA Project M479

The project, part of a major collaboration between the Minerals Research Institute of Western Australia (MRIWA), Murdoch University and sponsors Lithium Australia and Venus Metals Corp, sought to develop new technology for battery grade lithium production. The project also aimed to capture valuable byproducts from the extraction of high-grade lithium carbonate from certain groupings of minerals, known as micas.
