Sigma Lithium can produce up to 890 tonnes of toner per day

Sigma Lithium Corporation, a global lithium producer committed to powering electric vehicles with carbon neutral, chemical grade lithium concentrate, announces that its Greentech Plant has reached a daily peak production of 890 tonnes, equivalent to an annualised production of 320,000 tonnes of Triple Zero Green Lithium at battery grade with 5.5 per cent lithium oxide. The firm demonstrates that it is on schedule to meet its annual production projection of 130,000 tonnes of Triple Zero Green Lithium in 2023.

Sigma Lithium has successfully ramped up its Greentech Plant to operate at 100% of its design nameplate throughput capacity of 270,000 tonnes of Triple Zero Green Lithium per year. Attaining these goals illustrates the Greentech Plant’s and its tailings dry-stacked circuit’s exceptional performance in tandem with Dense Medium Separation (DMS). The organisation has surpassed the design utilisation rate of 88%, currently running at 88%. Throughput has progressed as predicted, from 75% throughput capacity at the end of July 2023 to 100% design capacity.
