Galan Lithium Produces Premium Lithium Concentrate from its HMW Pilot Plant

Galan Lithium (ASX:GLN) has produced premium lithium chloride from its Hombre Muerto West (HMW) pilot plant located in the Catamarca Province, Argentina. Samples are now ready to be distributed to potential offtake partners, according to an article published by The West Australian.

The HMW plant confirmed the production of concentrate products containing six percent lithium, which is comparable to 13 percent lithium oxide or 31.9 percent lithium carbonate equivalent, the article said.

“To deliver a high-quality product from our HMW piloting activities is just a reward to the Galan team. It has proven our process model and design theories were correct – it can be done…” commented Galan’s managing director, Juan Pablo Vargas de la Vega.

The full construction permit for phase 1 development of the HMW lithium brine project and phase 2 definitive feasibility study are both advancing and are expected in Q3 2023, according to a company press release.
