Australia was the main producer of tantalum prior to the 2010s, with Global Advanced Metals (formerly known as Talison Minerals) being the largest tantalum mining company in that country. They operate two mines in Western Australia, Greenbushes in the southwest and Wodgina in the Pilbara region.
Kenticha was mined for tantalum from 1990-2017. [5] Peak production from the mine was 90-95 tons of tantalum concentrate per year, valued at $20 million dollars/year. [3] Another sources states that before 2012, the mine produced 275 tons of tantalum/year, which was nearly 14% of global supply. [6]
Work at Lilypad in 2001-2002 focused on defining tantalum resources, but was also successful in identifying widespread occurrences of the cesium ore mineral pollucite in a field of highly fractionated lithium-cesium-tantalum pegmatite dykes. In October 2020, Avalon carried out a short field program to collect 200 kilograms of cesium mineralized ...
HLM Identifies Strong Tantalum Grades Up to 192 ppm Ta 2 0 5 Over 14 Meters on the Pakeagama Rare Metals Project in Northwestern Ontario SUDBURY, Ontario--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Houston Lake Mining Inc ...
The main target is a set of lithium-tantalum-niobium-tin-bearing aplite-pegmatite dykes. Of these minerals, the first three are critical raw materials for the EU, according to the list updated in 2020. [10]
HLM Drills 154 Metres of Continuous Lithium, Tantalum and Rubidium Mineralization across Five Adjoining Internal Pegmatite Zones on the Pak Rare Metals Project, Ontario SUDBURY, Ontario--(BUSINESS ...
The pollucite (chemical formula (Cs,Na) 2 Al 2 Si 4 O 12 ·2H 2 O) deposit associated with the pegmatite is the largest known deposit of this mineral and with 350,000 tons, [5] it accounts for two thirds of the known resources. [6] With an estimated average global use of 30,000 kg/year the reserves of the mine would last for 2,000 to 3,000 ...
