Phosphate Australia updates Highland Plains Project, NT
Phosphate Australia (ASX: POZ) has reported metallurgical testwork results (Metallurgical Report #4) from the Highland Plains material after it has been separated into two separate size fractions. These size fractions are designated the ‘coarse’ and ‘fine’ fractions.
Highlights include magnetic separation successfully applied to flotation end-products to achieve high quality rock phosphate grading to 35.6%P2O5 with a low combined contaminant value of 1.7% Fe2O3 plus Al2O3.
Marketing work commences for the Phosphate Australia “PhosAus Rock” product with early positive feedback from industry participants.
The company said work is now focussed on improving the flotation process for the fine fraction with the aim being to produce a first-pass flow sheet for the entire metallurgical process as rapidly as possible.
This is planned to underpin the commissioning of a metallurgical scoping study in the second quarter of this year.
