The previous project had been able to produce manganese sulfate with a purity exceeding 99.6% and low levels of base and alkali metals using material from Battery Hill property which comprises of rhodochrosite, a manganese carbonate mineral. The company's preliminary flow sheet utilized specific parameters for Battery Hill ore and yielded very encouraging results.

The project involves injecting carbon dioxide into processed kimberlite rock in order to accelerate the naturally occurring process of mineral carbonation, whereby processed mine rock (material left after the recovery of diamond from source rock, kimberlite) sequesters the carbon dioxide as a stable and benign carbonate mineral. The research offers great opportunity as the carbon storage capabilities of kimberlite processed while mining is such that only 10 per cent of the rock's storage potential would need to be harnessed to capture the carbon dioxide emissions of a whole mine.
