Latrobe Magnesium Ltd
Latrobe Magnesium Ltd. engages in the development of hydromet process and adopting the thermal reduction process to produce magnesium metal from fly ash, a power plant waste product and environmental pollutant. The company is headquartered in Sydney, New South Wales. Latrobe Valley Project provides approximately 3,000 tons per annum demonstration plant to convert fly ash resource into magnesium metal, supplementary cementitious material (SCM), amorphous silica, char and iron oxide using its process. The Company’s hydromet extraction process includes dissolving Magnesium (Mg), iron and calcium minerals with Hydrochloric Acid (HCl), and leaching out magnesium as MgCl2; removing Iron Oxide (Fe2O3) and calcium as Calcium Carbonate CaCO3; converting MgCl2 into Magnesium Oxide (MgO) and recovering the HCl for reuse in the process; and processing MgO into Mg and SCM using the thermal reduction process.
