Zimbabwe lithium mine to cost $165m – Prospect

The definitive feasibility study (DFS) into the Arcadia lithium project, in Zimbabwe, has found that the project would require a capital investment of $165-million to develop a 2.4-million tonne a year operation. The DFS base case was double that considered in a 2017 prefeasibility study which found that an investment of $52.5-million would be required to develop a 1.2-million tonne a year operation.
