MEDARO'S SPODUMENE PROCESSING TECHNOLOGY ACHIEVES GREATER THAN 95% LITHIUM RECOVERY FROM BOTH HIGH- AND LOW-PURITY SPODUMENE

Medaro Mining Corp. has released new, extremely positive lithium recovery data derived from use of the company's patent-pending spodumene processing technology. In bench-scale laboratory tests performed recently under mild experimental conditions, application of the technology culminated in extraction of greater than 95 per cent of the lithium present in two very different beta-spodumene compositions, one very pure (rich in lithium with low ppm (part per million) concentrations of minor and trace elements), the other relatively impure (comparatively lithium-poor with significant ppm concentrations of minor and trace elements). Further explanation of the work, along with important analytical data and calculated values developed from it, appear in the tables entitled "Lithium extraction results for a high-purity beta-spodumene" and "Lithium extraction results for a low-purity beta-spodumene."

Assessing the significance of the results presented above, Dr. Jim Blencoe, Medaro chief techical officer, states: "The extent to which lithium was extracted from the two very different spodumene compositions exceeded my most optimistic expectations. Also, it was surprising and very encouraging to find that relatively high ppm concentrations of iron, calcium, magnesium et cetera in the lower-purity spodumene had no discernible effects on the percent of lithium recovered. I believe these two very favourable characteristics of the data fully justify aggressive follow-on work to further assess the viability of the Medaro technology as an alternative to current commercial methods for manufacturing lithium carbonate, lithium hydroxide monohydrate and lithium metal from spodumene concentrates."

Faizaan Lalani, Medaro president, also states, "These recent lithium extraction results are extremely encouraging and strongly support our belief that the Medaro technology will have global applicability."
