First truckloads of concentrate departs from Kodal’s Mali project
The first truckloads of lithium spodumene concentrate have left Aim-listed Kodal Minerals’ Bougouni lithium project, in southern Mali, and are completing final customs formalities before being transported to the Côte d’Ivoire port of San Pedro.
The Bougouni operation team’s focus is to transport Kodal’s 30 000 t of spodumene concentrate from the project’s stockpile to port for the first export to Hainan, in China.
The transport process is expected to take between four and six weeks, and the team will continue transporting the full 45 000 t stockpile to ensure a stockpile of material is available at the San Pedro port for further product shipping thereafter.
“This is a major milestone for the Bougouni project with the first truckloads of spodumene concentrate departing site for export from the San Pedro port. Following the successful construction of the dense media separation plant and processing of ore from the Ngoualana openpit, we are now in a position to consistently manage the exporting of Bougouni’s spodumene concentrate,” Kodal Minerals CEO Bernard Aylward highlights.
“The first shipment of spodumene concentrate is planned to be 30 000 t, with first revenue expected upon completion of loading of the vessel in the San Pedro port as agreed in the offtake agreement. Further updates on the Bougouni operation and export will be provided as developments continue,” he adds.
