First Energy Metals (CSE: FE) (OTCQB: FEMFF), a publicly traded Canadian mineral exploration company, has received an update from SGS Canada Inc. regarding the ongoing metallurgical testwork being conducted on the Augustus Lithium property. According to the updated report, the head sample being used for the testwork assayed 1.46% lithium oxide (“Li2O”). The testwork is designed to lead to development of a preliminary process to treat the spodumene-bearing lithium mineralized rock to conceptualize a flow sheet, produce lithium oxide concentrate and generate a high-purity lithium carbonate product. Other highlights of the report included head sample assayed at 0.68% Li (or 1.46% Li2O) with <0.01% total sulphur and heavy liquid separation testing showed favorable potential for using dense media separation to produce >6% Li2O concentrates at specific gravity of 2.90 and above. In addition, the laboratory has been asked to move forward to DMS operations with a first-pass stage at an SG of 2.65 to remove major silicate gangue minerals followed by a second-pass stage on the first-pass floats at an SG of 2.90 to produce spodumene concentrate. The company noted that, if successful, the DMS operation could result in lower operating costs for the project at the production stage.
