Lake Hope is a clay-hosted project located about 500km southeast of Perth, Western Australia. It focuses on producing high-purity alumina (HPA) from clay through a two-stage processing flowsheet that also extracts potash as a by-product. The project is exploring new processing technologies including membrane crystallisers to improve efficiency and reduce costs. Additionally, an alternative process

Description
Description | Lake Hope is a clay-hosted project located about 500km southeast of Perth, Western Australia. It focuses on producing high-purity alumina (HPA) from clay through a two-stage processing flowsheet that also extracts potash as a by-product. The project is exploring new processing technologies including membrane crystallisers to improve efficiency and reduce costs. Additionally, an alternative processing pathway is being studied to produce potash and hydrochloric acid as primary products. Impact Minerals also holds a 50% interest in Alluminous, which offers a separate HPA production technology with a pilot plant in operation. The company aims to build a multi-commodity industrial minerals hub in the region. |
