anyhow...listen to Lilac boss (below). i cant find a similar investment with this much upside. yes the share price is lower than id hope but long term looks really nice. most risks have been minimised. yes there is this there is that...... blah blah...if it works (the announcement with independent testing shows it does) and if its cheap (the DFS will finally confirm this but we expect it to be cheap....in the order of $4000 USD per tonne), then the engineers will work it out.

i think many are scared by the engineering? to me thats a done deal with the dream team in place.

consider where this will be in 2 or who cares 3 years ?

thats my slant on it..the real deal.

oh and argentina...do u really think they would stop this project ....an earth saver, a money maker , a job creator for the country???? with their inflation ....over to lilac boss:

The 2,500 kg of LCEs was extracted at Kachi with 80% lithium recovery, 90% plant uptime, 1,000x less land compared with evaporation ponds, and 10x less water compared with conventional aluminum-based absorbents. The results speak for themselves:

• Speed to Production: Lilac commissioned the plant on-site in under a month, more than 10x faster than conventional processes, and immediately began continuous production of lithium chloride;
• High Lithium Recoveries: Lilac is achieving 80% lithium recovery from a brine with 200-300 mg/L of lithium, roughly double the lithium recoveries of most brine production;
• High Water Efficiency: Lilac’s technology is extremely water efficient, enabling production of lithium chloride with 10x less water compared to conventional aluminum-based absorbents;
• Product Purity: The lithium chloride Lilac produces is low in impurities, enabling efficient production of high-purity lithium carbonate for battery manufacturers. Rejection of boron, a troublesome impurity for brine projects, is greater than 99.9%;
• Continuous Operations: Lilac has been operating 24/7, with 90% uptime; this is a reliable automated plant designed for scalable manufacturing and operations;
• No Evaporation Ponds: Lilac’s ion exchange technology does not require evaporation ponds for brine concentration, unlike other so-called “direct extraction” technologies which rely on evaporation ponds to concentrate the lithium;
• Validated Performance: An independent engineer visited the plant and analyzed more than one hundred samples from across the plant to validate performance and confirm consistency with engineering work.

This is an inflection point in the lithium industry at a time when lithium demand is expected to surge dramatically in the coming years. The auto industry requires a 20x increase in lithium production to electrify all vehicles, and conventional lithium extraction methods – which require either the use of open pit mines or evaporation ponds – have struggled to scale due to high costs and environmental impacts.

In contrast, the Lilac technology can be deployed rapidly on site with minimal impacts on local communities and ecosystems. The technology also enables significantly higher recoveries of lithium – even from resources with lower lithium concentrations. The achievement of the Kachi milestone, which replicates extensive off-site test work by Lilac and is the second successful on-site pilot plant campaign by Lilac, lays the groundwork for the massive increase in lithium production required for the energy transition with minimal impact on the local environment.

When fully developed by Lake and Lilac, the Kachi project is expected to produce 50,000 tonnes per annum of battery-grade lithium products.
