Frequently Asked Questions
Spodumene is primarily used as a source of lithium for the production of lithium carbonate and lithium hydroxide, which are essential for lithium-ion batteries in EVs and electronics.
We employ advanced flotation and magnetic separation techniques to remove gangue minerals, ensuring the resulting Spodumene concentrate meets high purity requirements.
Yes, due to its low thermal expansion and high melting point, it is widely used in specialty ceramics and glass-ceramics to improve thermal shock resistance.
It should be stored in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area in moisture-proof packaging to prevent contamination and clumping.
We provide a detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) with every shipment, verified by independent lab testing to confirm the chemical identity and purity.
Beta spodumene is the natural form, while alpha spodumene is created through heat treatment (calcination), which makes it more reactive for chemical lithium extraction.
