SO4's 85Mt @ 8000mg/L figure is their resource, not the recoverable amount:"The estimated tonnage represents the in-situ contained brine with no recovery factor applied. It will not be possible to extract all of the contained brine by pumping of bores or trenches; the amount which can be extracted depends on many factors including the permeability of the sediments, the drainable porosity, and the recharge dynamics of the aquifers"

You're right. I mistakenly took the 26 Mt in the Measured and Indicated categories that SO4 reported in February and confused it with the recoverable which, as you point out they haven't reported.
