Ana Cabral, CEO and co-Chairperson of Sigma Lithium, said :
We are incredibly proud of the operational milestones our team has achieved in transforming Sigma Lithium into a major lithium producer in 2024,”
“We have researched and advanced dense media separation technology for lithium oxide concentrate, taking it to a unique level of production efficiency, reaching 70% of recovery at our Greentech Industrial Plant, while dry stacking 100% of the tailings, and reusing the water. Final enhancements to the processing flowsheet were implemented last month, increasing production significantly and enabling us to deliver in cadence two large monthly shipments for November production and now this one, which is part of December production. This is a significant achievement. Looking ahead to 2025, we are very excited about the future, with our team building a second Greentech Industrial Plant, that will double our production capacity and revenues while increasing our margins with the resulting economies of scale.”
