WESTERN MAGNESIUM COMMENCES BUILDOUT OF COMMERCIALIZED PILOT PLANT
Western Magnesium Corp. has started the build out of its first commercialized pilot plant.
Led by its technical team of Robert Odle, chief process engineer, and Paul Sauve, vice-president of operations, Western Magnesium has already contracted an international engineering firm to assist in the design and procurement of the pilot plant. Key activities, such as process design, flow-sheet development, process modelling and mechanical design, are well under way, and management feels strongly that the project is moving in the right direction and will meet its projected timelines for completion. Western Magnesium will achieve its goal of producing magnesium metal by the end of 2020.
This is a stepping stone to move the company forward in producing the first run of metal that will be used to carry out end-user industry testing as well as obtain industry certification by the automobile, aerospace and airline industries, and also the government and military.
With this foundational work under way, Western Magnesium is well into its operational activation phase of its strategy. With the finish line in mind, all hands are on deck from the finance, operations and investor relations perspective as the company forges ahead at an accelerated pace.
