Purity is not recovery... MoneyK

What is your point? I stated that we have over 99% purity versus LAC 73%. This would indicate that the pending recovery will be through the roof compared to LAC as there are little to no impurities on NILI. Awaiting results. Good Luck,

What he is saying is LAC achieved 99.9% purity with a 73% recovery. For some reason you are comparing Nili's current purity to LAC's recovery. "In partnership with ICD Process Technologies, a division of Aquatech, Lithium Americas has achieved over 99.9% purity of Li2CO3 from Thacker Pass lithium-bearing clays. "

I understand this. Within NILI impurities at less than 1%, the recovery rates should go through the roof, so our recovery rate will not be 73% but more like 90%. Like I said, USA backed the wrong horse. Good Luck,

Check your math. LAC's 99.9% purity leaves 0.1% impurity.

Where does it say that LAC will be 73% purity? Battery grade is 99.5%. MoneyK

Purity and recoveries are completely different. Everything will depend how the lithium can be separated. That's recovery. Whatever is separated can then achieve a good purity. MoneyK
