Ann: Initial metallurgical tests Generate Positive Results, page-154

Out of the two spodumene dominant samples, the best Li2O grade in the heavy fraction was only 2.59%. This means something else (non lithium) is being dragged down with the spodumene, diluting the grade to 2.59%. The reason could be that spodumene and quartz are locked together.

Other companies who perform the same simple test can achieve Li2O values well over 6%. Would be interested why KDR claims their results are "positive".

The flotation test reporting was just as misleading, with the headline trumpeting the high lithium recovery, but once again when you look at the detail, being the mass recovery (high!), the same thing is indicated - something else (quartz perhaps?) is being floated off with the spodumene.

Plenty of work to go on the processing to demonstrate this to be a viable deposit, IMO.
