St-Georges Eco-Mining Corp, a Canadian company listed on the Canadian National Stock Exchange, has recently made significant strides in its lithium processing initiative. The company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, St-Georges Metallurgy Corp., is advancing a pilot plant in collaboration with technology provider Coalia. This initiative is part of the company’s broader focus on exploring and evaluating mineral properties, particularly in Canada and Iceland, with an emphasis on metals such as gold, nickel, lithium, base and energy metals, as well as platinum group metals.
During the commissioning phase of the pilot plant, St-Georges Metallurgy Corp. has begun processing spodumene concentrate. Preliminary laboratory tests have shown promising results, indicating favorable lithium recovery and controlled residue behavior. To enhance the plant’s efficiency, a new filter press has been installed, effectively doubling the filtration capacity and supporting increased throughput.
The project has garnered support from Natural Resources Canada, which has invested in the pilot through the Critical Minerals Research, Development and Demonstration program. This backing underscores the importance of developing domestic lithium processing capabilities, aligning with national interests in securing critical mineral resources.
St-Georges has confirmed that the first purification stage of the plant is nearing completion, with final commissioning expected within the coming weeks. This progress marks a significant milestone in the company’s efforts to strengthen its position in the lithium processing sector.
