· A lithium extraction of 97.3% was yielded after 1 h leaching at 50 °C using a liquid–solid mass ratio of 7.5:1. Limestone was used to precipitate Al and Fe at pH 5.5–6.5 and the formed solids was discarded. The addition of hydrated lime and soda ash into the filtered solution would precipitate Ca and Mg at pH 11–12 as Mg(OH) 2 and CaCO 3.
