Andromeda Metals has successfully produced 4N high-purity alumina (purity of at least 99.99%) at laboratory scale using refined kaolinite from its Great White project and a proprietary processing route. Building on this, the company has completed the commissioning of its pilot plant in South Australia and officially commenced optimization and testing activities. The pilot plant is expected to produce commercial samples of 4N high-purity alumina in H2 2026 for potential clients, supporting their evaluation of the material and advancing Andromeda’s broader commercialization plan.
