HIGH PURITY IRON
PRISM is Developing a World-Scale Portfolio of Critical Minerals
High Purity Iron Powders
PRISM's Clear Hills resource, as reported in its NI 43-101 technical resource report, contains 182 million tonnes of contained iron and 2.45 billion pounds of contained vanadium pentoxide, will support many decades of production of carbonyl iron powder and vanadium electrolyte to meet increasing global demand. Cobalt has also been successfully recovered in preliminary carbonyl tests, and may be produced as a co-product.
The reductive chlorination process to be implemented by PRISM can produce high purity Iron with three strategic market opportunities:
Blue/Green Steel Production - as a substitute for traditional Direct Reduced Iron (DRI)
Paints - Iron Oxide powders
Additive Manufacturing/3D Printing - high purity iron powders (99.95% powders)
