We are mining, and are able to supply large quantities of 1-5% Lithium ores . In the future we are able to provide concentrated ore as well. Interested in one time purchase or off take agreement with Lithium processor.

Lithium ore is an element valuable for the production of glass, aluminum products, and batteries.

It is mined from ores of petalite (LiAl(Si2O5), lepidolite K(Li,Al) (Al,Si,Rb)4O10(F,OH), and spodumene LiAl(SiO3)2 and also subsurface brines. Nigeria is one of the world's largest producers of lithium.

With our large solid mineral storage facility in Lagos Nigeria we can supply 500-1000 metric ton of this product per month to China.

Spodumene, lithium ore, lithium concentrate content Li2O 5-8% or more

Long-term supply of spodumene ore and lithium concentrate, with different contents of 5%, 6%, and 7% or more can be supplied.

It can supply about 1000-2000 tons per month. Interested ceramic glass factories or traders are welcome to contact us.

Appearance:

Color: Varies from white, gray, greenish, yellowish, or pinkish, depending on the ore type.
Luster: Vitreous to pearly.
Transparency: Opaque to translucent.
Density & Specific Gravity:

Spodumene: 3.1 -3.2 g/cm
Lepidolite: 2.8 - 3.0 g/cm
Petalite: 2.4 - 2.5 g/cm
Amblygonite: 2.98 - 3.11 g/cm
Hardness (Mohs Scale):

Spodumene: 6.5 - 7
Lepidolite: 2.5 - 4
Petalite: 6 - 6.5
Amblygonite: 5.5 - 6
Crystal System:

Spodumene: Monoclinic
Lepidolite: Monoclinic or Triclinic
Petalite: Monoclinic
Amblygonite: Triclinic
Cleavage & Fracture:

Spodumene: Perfect cleavage in two directions
Lepidolite: Perfect basal cleavage
Petalite: Perfect cleavage in one direction
Amblygonite: Good cleavage in one direction
Tenacity:

Spodumene: Brittle
Lepidolite: Sectile
Petalite: Brittle
Amblygonite: Brittle
Streak:

White or colorless for most lithium ores.
Magnetism & Conductivity:

Non-magnetic.
Poor electrical and thermal conductor.
Reactivity:

Lithium ores are stable under normal conditions but react with strong acids to release lithium ions.
Additional Notes:
Spodumene is the most commercially important lithium ore due to its high lithium content (~5-8% LiO).
Lepidolite is a significant source of lithium but contains a lower lithium concentration (~3-5% LiO).
Petalite is valued for its low iron content, making it useful for ceramic and glass applications.
Amblygonite has lower economic significance but contains both lithium and phosphorus.
