Piedmont Lithium (ASX: PLL) president and chief executive officer Keith Phillips joins Small Caps to discuss the latest progress made at the company’s North American Lithium (NAL) operation in Canada.

Piedmont and its joint venture partner Sayona Mining (ASX: SYA) fed 4,000 tonnes of spodumene ore into the plant last month as part of the concentrator commissioning process, with automation, electrical and mechanical circuits checked and tested by pre‐operational verification teams.

The operation is expected to initially produce around 220,000t per year of 6% spodumene concentrate, which equates to about 30,000tpa of lithium carbonate equivalent.

Work on restarting the concentrator had reached almost 90% by the end of December with all critical equipment and environmental approvals received.
