After successfully producing a #Vanadium Pentoxide flake (V2O5) at Viking Mines Canegrass Battery Minerals Project, roasting of the remaining 5kg of magnetic concentrate from the Stage 2 Testwork is now complete with an 89.3% recovery of Vanadium into 15 litres of vanadium solution produced. The vanadium solution is now progressing through the next steps of the flowsheet to produce a high purity V2O5 flake and electrolyte. Learn more: https://loom.ly/XL6BUv0 #VikingMines #mining #ASX

#ASXNews CANEGRASS METALLURGICAL TESTWORK UPDATE Viking Mines is pleased to provide an update on the ongoing metallurgical testwork progress at the Company’s Canegrass Battery Minerals Project located in the Murchison Region, Western Australia. 🔹Significant advancements made with the Canegrass Metallurgical Testwork, focusing on improved V2O5 extraction, sulphide concentration and Titanium separation. 🔹Roasting and leaching has been completed on 5kg of magnetic concentrate from the Stage 2 Testwork, with 15 litres of vanadium solution produced. 🔹The vanadium solution is now progressing through the next steps of the flowsheet to produce a high purity V2O5 flake and electrolyte. 🔹Stage 3 Testwork: compositing completed on an 82kg sample from the Fold Nose Deposit, with two separate LIMS tests completed to produce magnetic concentrate. 🔸TEST 1: 40kg concentrate produced at a 150 micron grind size attaining a high mass pull of 56.4%, 1.27% V2O5 for 91.6% recovery. ➖Nickel, Copper and Cobalt reported to the tail (non-magnetic fraction), with sulphide flotation process completed to produce a sulphide concentrate. ➖0.33g/t gold identified in the sulphide rougher concentrate 1, providing additional value opportunity for the Project to be investigated. 🔸TEST 2: 4kg of concentrate has been produced at a coarse 500 micron grind size achieving a high mass pull of 53.9%,1.22% V2O5 grade with 81.7% recovery. This test result is significant due to the much coarser grind size employed. ➖ 3.6kg of concentrate has undergone Electrostatic Separation to determine potential for Titanium bearing Ilmenite separation. ➖ Electrostatic Separation resulted in several products, but with no significant improvement in Titanium grade. #VKA Managing Director & CEO Julian Woodcock commented: “Building on the success of producing a V2O5 flake, the Stage 2 metallurgical testwork continues to refine this process targeting the production of both a high-purity electrolyte and high-quality flake >99% purity V2O5, which will attract a premium pricing. “In parallel, Stage 3 testwork is well advanced, aimed at extracting additional value from the Canegrass Project to produce concentrates of Cu, Ni, Co and Ti, using various processing methods on both the magnetic concentrate and non-magnetic tail. “Of significance is the identification of gold reporting to the sulphide concentrate, providing a further valuable commodity within the Project warranting further investigation. “These findings present additional opportunities, and I look forward to updating the market with further results from this programme as we continue to de-risk the Project and enhance value through this crucial testwork.” View the Announcement ⬇️ https://loom.ly/XL6BUv0 #ASX #vanadium #battery #minerals #greenenergy #VRFB
