Venture Minerals to begin Mount Lindsay boron studies

(via NewsDirect)

Venture Minerals Limited (ASX:VMS, OTC:VTMLF) MD Andrew Radonjic tells Proactive the company has engaged Curtin University to spearhead the next stage of metallurgical test work on tin-rich borates from the Mount Lindsay Project in Tasmania following stage 1 work completed by the CSIRO.

This next phase will investigate methods to extract tin, boron and iron from tin-iron borates. Given boron’s relevance in the energy transition as a critical mineral used in solar panels and nuclear reactors, the company is keen to pursue it as a potential production target.

“Venture looks forward to working with Curtin University as it looks to unlock the potential of the tin-rich borates at Mount Lindsay,” Venture Minerals managing director Andrew Radonjic said.

“Curtin is well positioned in this space as leader of the Resources Technology and Critical Minerals Trailblazer hub, which is part of the recently announced Federal Government’s Trailblazer Universities Program.

“Curtin will continue from where CSIRO’s good work finished off and will look to develop a processing flowsheet in the coming months for recovering tin, boron, and iron from the tailings circuit.”
