Spodumene, Lithium Ore, Lithium

price 1500usd/MT to 4000usd/ MT depending on specs

Lithium ore spodumene kunzites,amblygonites, lumps and aggregates from Nigeria are available for sale at Mine rates.

Lithium ore is an element valuable for the production of glass, aluminum products, and batteries.

It is mined from ores of petalite (LiAl(Si2O5), lepidolite K(Li,Al) (Al,Si,Rb)4O10(F,OH), and spodumene LiAl(SiO3)2 and also subsurface brines. Nigeria is one of the world's largest producers of lithium.

With our large solid mineral storage facility in Lagos Nigeria we can supply 500-1000 metric ton of this product per month to China.

Streak:

White or colorless for most lithium ores.
Magnetism & Conductivity:

Non-magnetic.
Poor electrical and thermal conductor.
Reactivity:

Lithium ores are stable under normal conditions but react with strong acids to release lithium ions.
Additional Notes:
Spodumene is the most commercially important lithium ore due to its high lithium content (~5-8% LiO).
Lepidolite is a significant source of lithium but contains a lower lithium concentration (~3-5% LiO).
Petalite is valued for its low iron content, making it useful for ceramic and glass applications.
Amblygonite has lower economic significance but contains both lithium and phosphorus.
