Empire Metals Ltd (LON: EEE) Managing Director Shaun Bunn talks with Proactive’s Tylah Tully about the company’s metallurgical test results from its Pitfield project in Western Australia.
Bunn described the results as exceptional, achieving 95% recovery of titanium-bearing minerals using diagnostic acid leaching, marking a major milestone in the development of a high-grade titanium dioxide product with more than 95% purity.
Bunn said, “Our very first diagnostic test was hugely successful, achieving exceptional results with selective processing of weathered rock.”
He highlighted that the project was on track to produce high-value products for industries such as pigments and titanium metal manufacturing, with potential market prices ranging from $2,000 to $12,000 per tonne.
Bunn also discussed Empire Metals’ position in a tightening supply market, affected by reduced exports from Russia and rising tariffs in the US and Europe.
The company plans to optimise recoveries and finalise its flow sheet development, aiming to share significant updates early next year.
