I think whatever deal was made it would have provided the cash injection required. A year down the track and the offers if any would not provide the cash. At this stage I see no answer to their dilemma. Too me they should have done everything possible to preserve cash. Instead they have thrown money at A40...at current spod price A40 have no future. With the cash they had they could stay viable for a few years While other miners fall over. Hopefully by then spod prices could recover. If there is to be a large take up of EVs The prices of vehicles has to drop So I see pressure will be on spod prices forever. All I can see for the SP for the next couple of years is to fall to around $1 pretty quick then a slow decline from then on. Cheers

Forgot to hit reply! Regarding your battery cost statement.........do you know what percentage of the total cost of a typical Li-Ion battery is made up by lithium? Your argument is very valid, but this is a crucial part of the puzzle.
