Chinese do not believe in Easter, only what is in the ground.
below is at 50 metre depth , but result so far indicate mineralisation at 250m and excellent all important metallurgy.
potentially 1.5 billion tons .
As you say " all good". Ribbon cutting and photo time.

In these studies, Manono pegmatite is conventionally considered as a multi-branched dyke or laccolite, extending 14 km along a NE-SW axis (in agreement with the direction of the host micachists) and presenting in its middle a hiatus of 2.5 km. The width of this body varies from 50 to 800 m, with an average of 400 m. The SW (Kitotolo) area has an area of 1,350,000 m2 while that of the NE part (Manono) is 1,200,000 m2.”

These dimensions are enormous. If you assume a depth of just 50m, noting that it has been drill tested to 100m ending in mineralisation, you get a volume of 127.5m3 of volume, multiple by 2.8 and that’s 357MT of ore assuming spodumene mineralisation throughout. And that number doubles for every 50m of depth and consistent thickness proven. Obviously just an exercise in big numbers but the site has huge scale.

“The accessory minerals, apart from spodumene (which can constitute up to 25% of the rock) and, to a lesser extent, cassiterite linked to the albitic phases and the greisens, are rare or even exceptional: this is the case For the usual minerals of pegmatites such as tourmaline, beryl and apatite. The absence of tourmaline is all the more remarkable in that the mica-makers are intensely tournalinized (very thin black shorl) near the contact. Columbo-tantalite is related to albite phases, but is rare in greisens; Finally, sulphides (lollingite and, to a lesser extent, pyrite) are common in unaltered rock.”
