| ABSTRACT: | Pure Minerals Limited (ASX:PM1) (“PM1” or “the Company”) is delighted to provide the results of a Scoping Study commissioned by its wholly owned subsidiary Queensland Pacific Metals Pty Ltd (“QPM”) on the production of High Purity Alumina (“HPA”) as a co-product at the Townsville Energy Chemicals Hub (“TECH Project”). The Scoping Study was undertaken by lead engineering company The Simulus Group (“Simulus”) with support from Boyd Willis Hydromet Consulting (“BWHC”). Simulus is a leading engineering company in the HPA space, having undertaken numerous feasibility studies for various companies planning to produce HPA. The December 2019 Pre-feasibility Study (“PFS”) on the TECH Project (refer to ASX Announcement 9 December 2019) identified the production of HPA as a key value-add opportunity for the TECH Project. Using a conventional processing flowsheet, the aluminium hydroxide co-product is able to be upgraded to produce a high value 4N HPA. Simulus has previously completed testwork for QPM demonstrating the production of 99.99% (4N) purity HPA at the TECH Project. This involved leaching the aluminium hydroxide in hydrochloric acid, then utilising four stages of aluminium chloride hexahydrate (“ACH”) precipitation followed by calcination into HPA (refer to ASX Announcement 6 November 2019). Further work undertaken in the Scoping Study has determined that three stages of precipitation was sufficient. | |
