lithium production from spodumene

Production of Lithium

Microwave-assisted production of β-spodumene can be achieved faster and using less energy than heating in a conventional oven. However, some challenges with this approach have been identified. Mechanical assisted processes too can lead to the formation of an amorphous phase, which is to some extent suitable for efficient lithium extraction. Get price

Lithium Sector: Production Costs Outlook

The primary lithium-bearing mineral in this ore is usually spodumene, and therefore most of these mines produce spodumene concentrate as the final product. The spodumene concentrate is then usually sold and shipped to lithium hydroxide or carbonate conversion plants, mostly located in Asia, where it is converted to these respective lithium chemical products.
