Lithium Ore Crusher

Lithium ore processing involves crushing, grinding, flotation, and leaching to extract lithium compounds like spodumene (LiAl(SiO₃)₂) or lithium brine salts. As a leader in mineral processing equipment, Liming Heavy Industry provides robust solutions for every stage.

1. Crushing & Primary Grinding

Primary Crushing: Coarse lithium ore (e.g., spodumene pegmatites) is reduced to ≤150mm using PEW Series Jaw Crusher (feed size: ≤1500mm).
Secondary Crushing: HPT Multi-Cylinder Hydraulic Cone Crusher finely crushes ore to ≤30mm for enhanced liberation.
Advantage: High wear resistance and low energy consumption optimize TCO.

2. Grinding & Classification

Fine Grinding: LM Vertical Roller Mill or MTW European Trapezium Mill pulverizes ore to 80–425 mesh (0.180–0.045mm) for flotation feed.
Classification: YKN Vibrating Screen ensures precise particle sizing.

3. Flotation & Leaching

Flotation separates lithium-bearing minerals (e.g., spodumene) using reagents. Liming’s HST Single Cylinder Hydraulic Cone Crusher prepares tailings for further recovery.
For brine lithium, evaporation ponds require dewatering support from LUM Ultrafine Vertical Mill.

4. Tailings & Waste Management

Dry stacking solutions with VU Dry Sand-Making System minimize environmental impact.
