On August 22, 2024, Atlas Lithium Corporation provided an update on the progress of its modular lithium dense media separation (DMS) plant’s preparation for shipment to Brazil. The team from Atlas Lithium recently visited South Africa to oversee the packing of plant components for transport to Brazil. Currently, 48 containers have been packaged, with the total expected to exceed 100 containers before departure from Durban, South Africa to Santos, Brazil.
DMS is a processing method that uses a heavy liquid medium to separate materials based on density. Atlas Lithium’s DMS plant will focus on separating spodumene, the primary lithium-bearing mineral, from waste materials. This modular and optimized DMS technology aims to reduce production costs and water consumption.
Brian Talbot, an RTEK principal, emphasized the significance of Atlas Lithium’s venture in Brazil’s lithium industry during the recent inspection visit to South Africa. The plant components have undergone trial assembly, with final pieces such as effluent components and conveyors near completion. The plant’s modular design promises streamlined transportation, installation, and commissioning processes, emphasizing environmental friendliness and water conservation in lithium production.
Atlas Lithium Corporation is committed to sustainable practices in the lithium industry, with a focus on advancing its hard-rock lithium project in Minas Gerais and owning mineral rights for various critical metals. The Company prioritizes water conservation and environmental responsibility in its operations.
