VanadiumCorp Resource (TSX-V: “VRB”) (the “Company”) is pleased to announce the completion of Phase II production trials at Electrochem Technologies & Materials (“Electrochem”) facilities located in Boucherville, Quebec. Phase II yielded positive results that demonstrated the industry potential for VanadiumCorp-Electrochem chemical technology. Phase II resulted in successful processing of a variety of global feedstocks ranging from magnetite, slags and calcine that related industries cannot process efficiently or avoid the significant release of greenhouse gases.
Phase II results include:
- Efficient processing of a plethora of feedstocks with 95% of the material being recovered in the case of magnetite
- Recovery of vanadium as vanadyl sulfate used a precursor for the preparation of vanadium electrolyte (VE)
- Demonstration of the full potential of the VanadiumCorp-Electrochem chemical technology for primary production and monetization of waste materials
- Detailed mass and energy balances allowing the calculations of specific energy consumptions for the overall chemical and electrochemical integrated processes
