Tom qab tus nqi lithium tau pom qhov "tseem ceeb thiab txhawb nqa" nce, Australian lithium tus tsim MinRes tau rov pib ua haujlwm ntawm nws tag nrho - muaj kuv nyob hauv Western Australia - Bald Hill mine.
Lub tuam txhab tau hais tias nws yuav pib nthuav dav ntau lawm nyob rau lub Tsib Hlis lig, pib ua haujlwm crushing thiab mining nyob rau lub Rau Hli, thiab xav tias yuav tsim cov lithium spodumene concentrate rau thawj zaug hauv Lub Xya Hli.
Lub Bald Hill mine tau muab tso rau hauv kev saib xyuas thaum lub Kaum Ib Hlis 2024. Lub peev xwm tsim khoom txhua xyoo ntawm lub mine no yog kwv yees li 165,000 tons, nrog rau lithium spodumene concentrate qib ntawm 5.1% (SC5.1). Yog hais tias hloov mus rau tus qauv qib, lub peev xwm tsim tau txhua xyoo yog 140,000 tons (SC6), uas yog 6% qib lithium spodumene concentrate (SC6).
Nws cia siab tias thawj pawg ntawm lithium spodumene concentrate yuav raug xa tawm los ntawm Esperance chaw nres nkoj hauv peb lub hlis twg ntawm 2026, thiab tag nrho - teev ntau lawm yuav ua tiav hauv lub quarter thib plaub.
MinRes tseem tab tom ua haujlwm Wodgina thiab Marion lithium mines. Lub tuam txhab tau tsa cov kev cia siab ntau lawm rau ob lub mines rau xyoo 2026 rau 280,000 tons SC6 thiab 220,000 tons SC6 raws li.
