A quick review for new holders & those running the ruler over WR1:
- drilling resumed mid-August with 5 rigs at Adina
- approx 23,000m drilled prior to this
- approx 16,500m of assays received to date
- from approx 13,500m of assays, Canaccord estimate from modeling: 40mt @ 1.25%
- after August 1 announcement, estimates from modeling range from 45mt @ 1.3% (Fosters) to ~57mt @ 1.25% (reddit geo @WowVeryJosh and geos engaged by @Helios11 -- see his posts for much more detailed information)
- 3.1km strike, orebody mineralised at surface, open in all directions, many additional targets outside this strike zone
- Fosters estimates up to 125mt if entire 3.1km strike consistently mineralised
- metallurgical testwork shows low impurities and 80% recovery to SC5.5 using HLS, suggesting likely DMS-only processing
- 42m aud cash on hand
- company intends to drill at least 50,000m more, and release a MRE in Q1 of 2024
- based on past performance, each rigs drill ~2500m / month on average
- at this rate, with 5 rigs the company should have completed an additional 51,000m by mid-Dec (i.e. total 74,000m)
- lab assays are slow, between 6-10 weeks, however recent fires have likely cleared some of the backlog
- WR1 owns 20% of PWM.V, which is about to begin 15,000m drill program at Case Lake in Ontario
- WR1 recently increased PWM.V holding by 10% (market value ~8m aud) in a deal which sold them projects that had cost ~1.4m aud

Investment thesis in a nutshell:
- there are many battery/cathode factories are planned in North America
- yet almost no battery chemicals are produced in North America, and little future capacity is planned
- owners of these planned battery plants will need to build chemical conversion plants, but cannot commit without first securing feedstock
- spodumene concentrate is the preferred feedstock for LiOH (lithium hydroxide), used in higher-range, higher-performance batteries expected to dominate North American market
- the lead-time to plan and build a chemical conversion facility is approx 3 years
- MRE expected Q1 2024, and PEA soon after, with no need to raise capital prior to this
- WR1 is targeting production in 2027, and will therefore need to make a deal in 2024 with a strategic partner
- Many big players are competing for very few good spodumene assets with uncommitted offtake in North America
- WR1 is therefore in a strong negotiating position and may be able to secure debt funding and/or an offtake contract with floor price
- Additionally, WR1 will experience lower dilution than most of sector due to FTF (flow through funding) available to Canadian explorers
