Mthokozisi Goliath, Mine Manager at Prospect Lithium Zimbabwe, explained that the Lithium Sulphate Plant integrates pyrometallurgical and hydrometallurgical processes, with a production capacity of 50,000 tonnes per annum. The plant operates through three production lines. The process begins with roasting for alpha to beta spodumene conversion, followed by leaching, counter-current decantation, filtration, evaporation, and final product concentration, a streamlined process ensuring efficient lithium sulphate output.
Hon. Eng. Dr. Polite Kambamura emphasized that Zimbabwe has successfully established Africa’s first lithium‑sulphate plant, with a capacity of 50,000 tonnes per annum, currently operating at 60% and set to reach full capacity by 2027. He noted government plans to complete a lithium‑carbonate plant by August 2026, advancing towards local battery and solar panel production. He commended Huayou Cobalt and other producers for honoring commitments after the export ban, including building laboratories, transferring skills, training workers, and ensuring compliance, underscoring that government will leave no stone unturned in maximizing national benefit from lithium resources.
