News: ESS Tianqi Lithium Terminates Plan Of Acquiring Essential Metals, page-144

What would be wrong with for instance toll treating ESS ore through the Mt Marion plant?

MIN is in the business of providing mine services, so developing a plan to mine our ore, treat it at Mt Marion and sell the concentrate to MIN which they would then put through their downstream facilities to profit from the production of lithium hydroxide could well result in Win/Win. I don't have to provide all the answers, but I certainly wouldn't be sitting on my hands when I know MIN is clearly there as an investor. I'd be working to get the best outcome for shareholders, not waiting for the phone to ring or just hoping MIN launches a takeover bid.
