Hudson Reports Positive Leaching Test Results for the Production of Waste Free Alumina in EU Funded Program - Seite 2

Two leaching tests were performed by IFE, which included the following steps:

• Mixing of anorthosite with 20 wt% Hydrochloric acid (HCl) at 140 degrees C
• Cooling of the final reaction mixture
• Separation of liquid and solid fractions by centrifugation and decanting
• Washing of solid fractions and drying

Jim Cambon, President commented: “The EU funded testwork conducted by IFE and AlSiCal independently confirms an efficient and straightforward leaching process of aluminum and calcium from the White Mountain anorthosite. This represents a key step in the production of a waste-free “Green Alumina” product and offers a direct replacement to bauxite which creates almost four tonnes of waste for every tonne of aluminum produced. The time is right for the production of a truly green aluminum in which anorthosite is a key solution.”

In addition to its interest in the White Mountain anorthosite operation, Hudson owns 100% of the Sarfartoq rare earth element (“REE”) project and the high-grade Nukittooq niobium-tantalum project located on the Sarfartoq exploration license. The Sarfartoq REE project has a 43-101 indicated and inferred resource outlining 35,000 tonnes of neodymium oxide plus praseodymium oxide, the two key components in permanent magnets driving the green revolution. There is significant potential to expand this REE resource, while the Nukittooq project has some of the highest reported niobium assays in the industry (see NR2020-15).
