| ABSTRACT: | Dakota Minerals Limited (“Dakota”, “DKO”, or “Company”) is pleased to provide an update on its metallurgical test work programme, carried out on diamond drill core from the Lynas Find lithium project. The programme represents the next stage of Dakota’s strategy to advance the Lynas Find project in the Pilbara region of Western Australia, which is progressing in tandem with its European lithium strategy. Spodumene-bearing pegmatite zones in two diamond drill holes from the Lynas Find Central pegmatite were sampled and sent to SGS Metallurgy in Perth for “sighter” metallurgical test work to progress knowledge of the ore. Analysis of the drill core showed high grades and good repeatability with nearby RC twin holes. The core was then subjected to comminution and beneficiation testwork, in order to trial optimal ore processing techniques. During the beneficiation testwork, Heavy Liquid Separation (HLS) tests were shown to work very well with the Lynas Find ore, producing a high grade spodumene product grading 6.56% Li2O, equating to 90.6% Li2O recovery. These results indicate that dense media separation (DMS) would be a viable processing route for the Lynas Find spodumene ore. | |
