Parkway Minerals owns a portfolio of highly innovative brine and mineral processing technologies with the potential to significantly improve the efficiency, performance and sustainability of a range of industrial operations, particularly in conventional brine and minerals processing related applications.
Whilst these exciting technologies have applications in a range of sectors, Parkway Minerals is concentrating initial efforts on the production of high-quality and value potash (potassium, K) and lithium (Li) related products.
The aMES™ technology has been developed to enable the effective processing of typically highly concentrated brine solutions, in order to recover fresh-water and produce valuable minerals, including muriate of potash (MOP), sulphate of potash (SOP) and various lithium salts.
Advantages:
-
Improvements in mineral recovery and product quality.
-
Opportunity for substantial project capex & opex savings.
-
Highly efficient use of energy and produces water as by-product.
-
Reduced water consumption.
-
Improved project footprint and environmental sustainability.

The K-Max® technology was developed by Parkway Minerals in order to process glauconite (such as can be found at the Dandaragan Trough Project) and a range of micaceous minerals. A scoping study prepared by Parkway Minerals demonstrated the potential feasibility of producing several valuable products, including sulphate of potash.
Advantages:
-
Efficient hydrometallurgical process with numerous potential applications.
-
Allows the production of a range of products from unconventional minerals, mainly micaceous minerals.
-
Potential to utilise the technology to produce potassium sulphate (SOP), potassium magnesium sulphate (KMS), phosphoric acid, iron oxide and aluminum sulphate.
