This amount means a production rate of 24,000 tons of LCE per year, as well as a potential for a significant increase in production capacity in later phases. The long-term potential of the deposit is estimated at above 75.000 t LCE today. Following the takeover of full ownership of Centenario, the Group is currently re-evaluating the scope and optimal calendar of future capacity expansion phases.<\/p>\n<h3>Our Journey to a Responsible Mining Standard (<a href=\"https:\/\/responsiblemining.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">IRMA<\/a>)<\/h3>\n<p>IRMA&#8217;s vision is &#8220;a world in which the mining industry respects the human rights and aspirations of affected communities, provides a safe, healthy and enabling workplace, minimizes environmental damage and leaves positive legacies.&#8221; As such, it is the world&#8217;s most comprehensive and rigorous definition of good practice for industrial scale mining, with a higher standard than any country&#8217;s laws.
