Empire Metals MD says Pitfield flowsheet is a 'defining moment'

About this episode

Shaun Bunn discusses the new process flowsheet for Empire Metals' Pitfield titanium project and its potential economic benefits.

Empire Metals Ltd (AIM:EEE, OTCQX:EPMLF) Shaun Bunn joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion to discuss the newly developed process flowsheet for Empire Metals' Pitfield titanium project and how it could reshape the economics of titanium production. Built around conventional technologies, the flowsheet takes advantage of Pitfield's unique high-grade, weathered ore and the absence of ilmenite, enabling lower acid consumption, reduced operating temperatures, lower energy use and cheaper residue management than traditional sulfate processing routes. Bunn also highlighted the benefits of a fully integrated mine-to-refinery operation, plans for continuous pilot testing in the third quarter, and the potential to generate additional value from a high-purity alumina by-product. Watch the full interview to learn more about Empire Metals' development plans for Pitfield and the potential advantages of its integrated titanium processing strategy.
