Following on from the successful scoping study for lithium hydroxide on 29 November 2018, Infinity engaged Wave International to manage a pre-feasibility study (PFS).

The PFS is evaluating the production of battery-grade lithium in an integrated processing facility at San Jose by Infinity on behalf of the joint venture company.

Test work underpinning the PFS is focused on processing and evaluating whether mined ore can be transformed into high-value lithium hydroxide.

San José is proposed as an integrated industrial processing facility to produce lithium chemicals for lithium-ion batteries which are essential to support the EU’s burgeoning electric vehicle industry.
