Prayon has begun assessing product quality and process feasibility through pilot testing of the First Phosphate rock concentrate to determine the optimal process parameters for MGA production.
- Prayon has begun assessing product quality and process feasibility through pilot testing of the First Phosphate rock concentrate to determine the optimal process parameters for MGA production.
- The main results of the MGA tests are summarized below:
The phosphate rock concentrate can be considered a high-grade igneous rock with about 40.6% P2O5 content. - The general impurity content is low, especially chlorine (~630 ppm) compared to other rock concentrates mined from the same region.
- The operation of the pilot plant using this phosphate rock was stable and quite easily operable in the CPP process route.
