Ann: Open pit study lights up Lake Roe, page-10

Said it once, will say it again. Buy a lithium investor called Breaker Resources and get a free huge gold mining operation off the back of that...

Less smart-alecky - in my professional life I have become wedded to linear decision-making under the the self-titled term of "slicing the sausage". In brief I hate projects which require massive leaps in effort and similar leaps in cost before they have anything to show. I much prefer incremental projects which have clear stage-gates, which bring benefit as quickly as possible and allow for relatively early disentanglement if trouble strikes.

It is clear to me - and it may be the age thing - that this team has the same philosophy. The Lithium was an early and effective way to de-risk what was to follow. Early monetisation and an incremental approach to the starter pit seem to similarly align.
