Salt Lake Potash Ltd (ASX:SO4) (LON:SO4) (OTCMKTS:WHELF) chemical analysis on a bulk sample from the Kainite harvest ponds at its Lake Way Sulphate of Potash (SOP) Project has revealed potassium grades above the modelled average.
The 277-kilogram sample has demonstrated the presence of potassium salts kainite and schoenite (as modelled) with a potassium concentration of 7.5%, above the modelled assumed plant feed of 6.8%.
Sulphate concentration of 20.9% also matched expectations and results from sodium and magnesium align with the anticipated plant feed grade.
Project further de-risked[hhmc]
Chief executive officer Tony Swiericzuk said: “These positive results confirm our Stage 1 ponds are operating within design parameters and are producing high-grade potassium feed salts which can be converted to premium quality SOP.
“Following the strong results from pumping our first brine abstraction bore reported last week, todays results further highlight the extent to which the Lake Way Project and our on-lake production process has been de-risked over the last 12 months.”
