Shares in ASX-listed Anson Resources soared on Monday after the company announced that it had produced about 1 kg of battery quality lithium carbonate from brine sourced from its Paradox brine project near Utah, in the US.

The sample was produced using a dedicated and advanced ion exchange (IX) system, as part of the design and engineering of the company’s planned in-field pilot plant. 

Anson reported that Lilac Solutions had processed about 3 500 ℓ of 180 mgLi/ ℓParadox Basin brine to produce about 20 ℓ of high-purity lithium chloride concentrate at about 18 000 mg/ ℓ of lithium.

In the in-field pilot and commercial operations when commercial Lilac operating conditions will be used, Anson expects lithium recoveries from brine to eluate of more than 80%, as previously reported.

The eluate produced by Lilac was purified by Southwest Technologies.

Anson reported that the participle size distribution satisfied the specifications provided by its prospective customer in Asia. It is particle size that can be readily used for manufacturing batteries, and will satisfy most other specifications of cathode materials manufacturers.

On Monday, Anson’s share price was up 47% on the ASX to trade at A$0.071 a share.
