Mining’s old guard needs strong medicine
A new report details subpar investor returns in the mining industry over the last decade, particularly big cap diversified companies which have not adapted to new realities.
Canada Lithium Corp. (TSX: CLQ; U.S. OTC: CLQMF) announced today the results of the updated feasibility study for the development of a mine and lithium carbonate processing facility at its Québec Lithium Project near Val d’Or, Québec. A National Instrument 43-101 compliant technical report respecting the updated feasibility study will be filed on SEDAR within 14 days. The June technical report will replace the technical report dated January 5, 2011, that was prepared in respect of a feasibility study for the project that was completed in December, 2010.
The updated feasibility study contemplates an open-pit mine and processing plant that will have an initial mine operating life of approximately 14.9 years. The planned annual output for the project remains at approximately 20,000 tonnes (44 million pounds) per year of battery-grade lithium carbonate (Li2CO3).
The key parameters from the updated feasibility study are shown below, with a comparison to the prior feasibility study.
