NANO + STEAM REFORM ( peper proving MgC2 ) better hydrogen
Perhaps both processes would be best -
MgCO3 + NaCL = MgCl2 + Na2CO3
Intoduce nano filtration
= seaprate the MgC12 = separate the Na2CO3
Sell Na2CO3 - ( Fertilizer or lithium sector as a 5.32 x LCE multiplier )
MgCl2 - steam reform. ( smr )
NOW READ THIS PAPER ON - MgCL2 vs METHANE - steam reformation
#1 - SMR - used to split methane gas to produce hydrogen. ( carbon issue + ghg + less effective )
#2 - SMR - used to split MgCl2 ( no green house gas, no carbon, higher volume of hydrgoen )
System 1 - 28.4–18.4%
System 2 - 43.2–27.4%
Same SMR process applied to - MgCl2 to split hydrogen...
Mg–Cl cycle can be considered as a promising thermoelectrochemical cycle for water splitting because of its simplicity and applicability as well as possessing higher energy and exergy efficiencies and stability of chemical reactions throughout the cycle.

Perhaps the chloride conversion then nano filtration would be a cheap initial phase
then... introduce SMR -
Now... what would a MgCL2 concentrate produce - higher yields of hydrogen ?
Would the 42.3% increase exponentially ?
Ahhhh.....
In mining... it's all about out performing your competitor...
Cheaper process.
No carbons.
No green house gases.
Higher yields.
More Profits.
Just ideas...
