POTASSIUM - FELDSPAR - DEIONIZED WATERThere's been a few nesrby, peers...
Who've performed deionized water tests, on thier clay ores, via labs.
Ironically...
labs performed deionized water solubility tests - resulting, in...
Lithium solibilizing.
While, further tests performed later, on concluded,
Deionized water did not solibilize the lithium.
How can this be ?
Two opposing results .
My Hunch Says...
There's two forms of lithium.
Even, as much as.., lithium might coreact - interchange, with other salts forming bonds.
Or, is could point to...
The extraction parties chose one particular form of lithium a csrbonate,
which requires, an, acid to sooubilize.
While, on the flip, the original lab tests simply used deionized - water on a whole specimen, of clays
Lookimg for any sort of solubilized lithium values.
If this is the case...
it could point to...deionized water did in fact solubilze - lithium that was prone to solubilizing.
Thus, more than one form of lithium, might be present, in nevada basins.
1) Potasium lithium bonds = deionized water would essily solubilize
2) Carbonate lithium = requires acid to solubilize
Hence - just addimg sufficient acid, to the brines, could reveal higher values of potential hidden lithiim ppm...versus...lab seeking, only, lithiim chloride.
Thought, i should add this important, peer info...
That's about, alll i have in resesrch, here's hoping PE + Schlumberger kicks it in gear...
If, my resesrch has aided in any form...here's hoping they remember, me...wink.
Share/Consult...lol...to the poster who, mention why not, call them...?
I did, but...no pick up...hence...i decided to put it all in post format.
Would love to see some larger - moves made - grafting in nearby peers, such as, swaying Speriment to unionize with PE, to, create ( larger footprint ) for brine mining... If PE took it
upon themselves to,do so...perhaps it would, reflect in PE increasing thier 3% royalty....
Should, be...minimum, 10 %....grrr....lol...hopefully they're - working on a revised resource
estimate including nevada energy's and advantage, drill holes...
prep ahead... so majority, is completed, and only have to insert new cv 9 drill, hole stats.
Update...would be nice, on present drill hole...depth they're presently at...etc...
Hoping... PE does use some of the tips i've, provided to, perhaps reveal more lithium.
Cheers...
