Lepidico - Masterful metallurgy
Central to Lepidico is its disruptive (patent-pending) L-Max® (hereafter L-Max) metallurgical technology that recovers lithium from micas (eg lepidolite), and therefore holds out the prospect of creating a new source of lithium supply. Despite being an abundant lithium-bearing mineral, lepidolite has hitherto been overlooked as there has been no commercial process by which to process it economically. This report necessarily values Lepidico on the basis of the pre-feasibility study (PFS) performed on a proposed Phase 1 L-Max plant at Kenora, Canada. Beyond that however, there are a number of development options including 1) scaling up the process to full industrial scale (Phase 2); 2) securing lepidolite resources cheaply and developing them into multiple dedicated mines; and 3) developing relationships with third-party mining companies to provide further feed sources to its plant(s).Lepidico is engaged in mineral exploration and the development and licensing of L-Max® technology. Co.'s lithium portfolio of exploration and commercial ventures include the Lemare project in Canada; the Euriowie project near Broken Hill in New South Wales, Australia; Third Element Metals Pty Ltd, a joint venture in Brazil; a joint venture in Argentina; and L-Max® licence arrangements with Lithium Australia Ltd. and European Metals Holdings Limited. Co. also retains its interest in the East Pilbara Polymetallic project, which is located in the East Pilbara region of Western Australia. The L-Max® process allows the extraction and recovery of lithium from lithium bearing micas.
