Ann: Ravensthorpe Lithium Project Update, page-42

No problem tweedie.... there is balance in BNR being able to mine for lithium and offset by farmland yet to be cleared anywhere in the cockatoo habitats, ideally close to reserve.

The ABSOLUTE real cuplrit is farming, the area taken up by mining at least 1/100th that of farming.

The economic value from a small footprint mine is many times greater than farm, and given climate change more likely to become truer in this region. So balancing economic value against nature... the farms have to go, or at least stop expanding. Climate change will rip through areas like these, I know not much of an argument, but Lithium is part of the solution.

The local screamed into the petrol station racing towards the only vacant petrol browser, I was almost in. A stand-off ensued, his car 2 times the size of mine, super farm ute. I went to the store, he followed me in fuming...
