This review paper overviews the transformation processes and cost of converting critical lithium ores, primarily spodumene and brine, into high-purity battery-grade precursors. We systematically examine the study findings on various approaches for lithium recovery from spodumene and brine.
The price of battery-grade lithium carbonate in 2017 was 13,900 USD/t, which represents a 61% increase in price from that of 2016 (US Geological Survey, 2018). Fig. 1. Estimated world lithium production (excluding U.S. production) and consumption (Jaskula, 2015, US Geological Survey, 2018).
Some recent research results indicate that the methods for extracting lithium vary depending on the mineral phases of different clay-lithium ores. Typically, roasting and extraction processes are necessary . 2. Lithium Resources Lithium on Earth occurs in many kinds of forms.
The transformation of critical lithium ores, such as spodumene and brine, into battery-grade materials is a complex and evolving process that plays a crucial role in meeting the growing demand for lithium-ion batteries.
Lithium ore, also known as hard-rock lithium, is derived from mining and is one of the major raw material sources for lithium production for industrial applications – the other source is lithium brines.
