Empire Metals MD discusses rapid progress on Pitfield process flowsheet

Episode Summary

Empire Metals Ltd Managing Director Shaun Bunn talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the latest advancements at the company’s Pitfield project in Western Australia. Bunn highlighted that the team has made significant progress in mineral separation and hydrometallurgical test work, rapidly moving through the process flow sheet. He explained that early lab testing on ore samples collected last year has demonstrated successful separation of titanium-bearing minerals and the development of a high-value product. A key milestone has been the recovery of over 91% of titanium through acid digestion, marking a crucial step toward defining a final product specification. Bunn further outlined the next steps, which include scaling up test work from small batch processing to industrial levels by collecting and processing 50 to 80 tonnes of material. This will allow the company to generate bulk samples for potential customers and partners, reinforcing Pitfield’s potential as a major titanium project. He emphasised that the chemistry and technical aspects of the project are coming together well, and investors can expect further updates as larger-scale test work progresses.
