Lithium Ore Knowledge
30/11/2024
Lithium ores occur naturally in a variety of geological environments around the world. The most common lithium-containing minerals are spodumene, lepidolite, and petalite. There are usually sedimentary deposits, pegmatite minerals, and brine deposits. The concentration and composition of lithium ores can vary greatly from one deposit to another, and different extraction methods may be required to extract lithium from different types of ores.
Lithium plays a major role in all aspects of modern society due to its unique properties. The following are some of the applications of lithium:
Automotive Industry
Lithium plays a key role in electric vehicles, which have been developing rapidly in recent years as a new upstart in the automotive industry. Lithium-ion batteries are used in electric vehicles to power the motors and provide energy for driving. The growth of the electric vehicle market has significantly boosted the demand for lithium ore.
Pharmaceutical Industry
Lithium has been used in the pharmaceutical industry as a mood-stabilizing drug for the treatment of bipolar disorder. Lithium salts, such as lithium carbonate and lithium citrate, are used to formulate drugs to treat mental health disorders.
Electronics Industry
Lithium plays a huge role in the electronics industry, and a large number of consumer electronic products rely on lithium batteries for power. Lithium batteries have become the first choice for these devices due to their high energy density, long cycle life and lightweight characteristics. Lithium is widely used in the electronics industry as a lightweight and efficient battery material.
In terms of lithium ore research, our company's mineral processing research institute has also made many innovative studies and discoveries. For example, in a test study of a lithium ore, it was found that only a small amount of fine mud needed to be removed from the original ore, and flotation used a collector with high selectivity for spodumene. After a process of 1 roughing, 1 sweeping and 3 fines, a lithium concentrate grade of more than 5.5% can be obtained, and the tailings grade can be reduced to less than 0.15%, and the recovery rate can reach more than 80%.
