ASX:FYI I OTCQX:FYIRF
PHASE 1 OF JOINT EXTENDED HPA TRIAL SUCCESSFUL
FYI Resources Ltd (“FYI” or “the Company”) ( ASX: FYI; OTCQX: FYIRF; FSE: SDL) , is pleased to announce that the first phase of the extended pilot plant campaign for the trial production of high purity alumina (HPA) being undertaken in collaboration with Alcoa of Australia was concluded successfully this morning.
The extended trial run is the first one-week operation in a schedule of four trials that will be undertaken during the extended pilot program. The initial observations of the first HPA trial were very positive with operations performed to expectations and the product appearing to meet the higher end of the Company’s anticipated internal measures.
Samples of the extended trial HPA product will now be internally checked and then submitted for high level Glow Discharge Mass Spectrometry ( GDMS ) analysis to EAG Laboratories in New York, USA for independent, high accuracy, confirmation of the HPA grades.
Commenting on the pilot plant trial, FYI Managing Director, Roland Hill, said “The operational performance of the joint pilot plant trial continues to impress our development team. In the words of our metallurgical manager “the trial’s operational objectives were met comfortably”. This is particularly pleasing at this time as the HPA project progresses to the detailed end of the development allowing us to incorporate the ongoing series of continual improvements into the engineering, process flowsheet and ultimately the project economics”.
FYI will inform the market regarding the progress of the independent GDMS analysis results as well as the commencement of the second phase pilot plant trial in the extended piloting operations schedule.
