Summary
Andromeda Metals Limited has announced the successful commissioning of its High Purity Alumina (HPA) pilot plant and the commencement of a comprehensive optimisation and testwork program. This program aims to enhance the continuous flowsheet process, develop HPA products, and evaluate co-products such as amorphous silica and gallium. Andromeda's proprietary process offers flexibility in tailoring HPA products to meet diverse customer needs, and the company plans to produce commercial HPA samples for customer evaluation in the second half of 2026. The initiative aligns with the company's strategy to establish a new HPA supply chain independent of traditional aluminium markets, leveraging their high-quality kaolin feedstock. Additionally, by-products from the testwork will be analyzed for potential commercial applications, potentially elevating them to high-value co-products, which could significantly impact the project's economics and global competitiveness.
