Phase 2 — Semi-Processing

After solidifying the raw extraction base, SONALEK will move to semi-industrial mineral processing to significantly increase local value-added.

Phase 2 Objectives

  • Construction of a semi-processing plant on the Kibaya perimeter.
  • Production of semi-finished TiO₂ pigments and titanium chloride (TiCl₄).
  • Refining lithium into lithium salts (Li₂CO₃) for the battery industry.
  • Value-added increase: +200% on titanium, +150% on lithium.
  • Export to higher-value markets: Asia, Western Europe.
