Pervomayskiy Lithium Project Update
Toronto, Ontario (FSCwire) - Stans Energy Corp. (TSX-V: HRE, OTCQB: HREEF), ("Stans" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that a lithium carbonate has been produced from lithium concentrate extracted from the Pervomayskiy Lithium Mineralization Stockpile (the “Pervomayskiy Stockpile”) using a patentable milling and hydro-metallurgical technology.
Laboratory research was completed on three different milling processes to determine the optimal composition of a concentrate to be processed into lithium carbonate. It was determined that a concentrate yielding 4.48% Li20 is the ideal source material for the developed hydrometallurgical technology proposed for the production of lithium carbonate from the Pervomayskiy Stockpile. The lithium carbonate product will be suitable for sale on the world market.
Research on the beneficiation and processing of the lithium mineralization and lithium concentrate was performed by VNIIHT (Lead Institute of Chemical Technology), which is overseen by the Science and Innovation Corp., a research and development branch of Rosatom, the Russian State Nuclear Energy Agency.
Stans’ partners, Pervomayskiy GOK, undertook this work, with partial government funding supported by Rosatom.
“It is encouraging to see the amount of the development and research our partners have already conducted on the Pervomayskiy project. Stans is moving quickly to conduct due diligence of the geological and technical materials provided by our partners,” states Rodney Irwin, Interim President and CEO.
The scientific and technical information in this document was reviewed, verified and compiled by Stans Energy Corp.’s geological and mining staff under the supervision of the company's qualified person, Dr. Gennady Savchenko FGS, Director of International Mining Operations, Stans Energy Corp.
