Lithium carbonate is used in, for instance, batteries, ceramics and enamels, heat-proof glass, lubricants, the manufacture of aluminium, and air conditioning chemicals.
The manufacturing process of lithium carbonate produces analcime, i.e. sodium zeolite, as a by-product. Analcime is a porous zeolite with a number of industrial uses.
The spodumene enrichment process produces fine-grained quartz feldspar sand which can be washed, dried and packed according to the customer's needs.
