JLL, formerly named Jindalee Resources, is making some noise this morning on news it has produced battery-grade lithium carbonate from ore at the McDermitt project in Oregon.

These findings were made during test work completed at Hazen Research Inc in collaboration with Fluor, the lead engineer for the PFS currently underway.

McDermitt holds the crown as the largest lithium deposit in the US by contained lithium with a resource of 3Bt at 1,340 parts per million (ppm) for 21.5Mt lithium carbonate equivalent, somewhat larger than Lithium America’s advanced 19.1Mt Thacker Pass asset, 30km away.

All steps of the processing flowsheet for McDermitt from ore beneficiation and leaching to purification and production of battery-grade lithium carbonate have now validated, demonstrating the potential for McDermitt to supply lithium chemicals to the expanding US battery value chain.

It also supports the outcomes of a highly anticipated pre-feasibility study, due for release in Q4.
