Fury Gold Mines: 6.0% Li2O5 & 77% Recovery from Lithium Tests
AI Summary
Fury Gold Mines announced final metallurgical test results for its Ninaaskumuwin lithium discovery on the Elmer East project in Quebec. The tests demonstrated the feasibility of producing a Direct Shipping Ore (DSO) concentrate grading 6.024% Li₂O₅ with 76.66% lithium recovery. This promising outcome suggests a selective exploration and mining approach and the potential for marketable Spodumene Concentrate (SC6) suitable for battery manufacturing.
Key Highlights
- DSO concentrate grading 6.024% Li₂O₅ achieved from metallurgical tests.
- 76.66% lithium recovery in 22.97% of the mass through a single DMS step.
- 85 samples analyzed contained up to 42% spodumene.
- Sample grades ranged from 0.02% to 3.71% Li₂O.
- Sample grades ranged from 0.36% to 6.30% Fe₂O₃.
- Ninaaskumuwin lithium prospect is on the 45,700-hectare Elmer East project.
- Discovery is approximately 50 km north of Rio Tinto's Galaxy Lithium project.
