@blastfurnace,
First of all it is the truth as you said that you don't know the exact distribution of tin, tantalum and lithium in Manono mine yet, wait and see what the drilling shows.
I am saying again and this is truth no one can deny this; extracting both tin and lithium
from the same ore is not possible because they can't be together
in the same ore in economical levels.
They can be seen together but one of them will not be in economical levels because it will be a coincident. This was my point. I don't think you can talk about tin credits when extracting lithium.
You said "Pilgangoora and Wodgina they both have overlapping/coincident resources of tantalum (similar properties to tin) and spodumene". I can see you are not saying "tin and spodumene", you are saying "tantalum and spodumene". Yes of course they can be found together in the same ore body. That's the settings, that's how we look for lithium, you know that better than me in deed. However tin can't be found in same ore body with spodumene just because it has similar properties with tantalum.
But yes, as you said again, tin and spodumene ores can be found in the same area as overlapping ore bodies and coincidently. I know that is the case in Manono because the pegmatites are tilted extensively and even the spodumene ore zones are not exposed at the top they might be down deep I guess. That's why it needs to be drilled and then talked surely.
Re; Manono tenement maps, I think you guys all know why they didn't give those maps clearly. I don't want to about this issue anymore. It was clear for me.
Regarding the spodumene vs lepidolite mineralogy that I was suggesting, I was asking you guys to enlighten me. I was not sure on that issues which i don;t know much about atm, but I will learn don't worry about it.
I am not inventing/exaggerating any problems here, I am honestly questioning the issues which actually you guys are exaggerating. Some guys made Democratic Republic of Congo, especially Katanga province a safe place for operating a mine. No it's not. That's very misleading.
Some guys are proudly saying that the corrupt DRC government is partnered in the project and Klause Eckhof well connected to them, and they have the power to kick the ass of anyone. Can this be an ethical investing!
Sorry to say but that's the poor form mate. My form is quite intact and strong.
I agree Klaus Eckhoff is very experienced and well connected in the DRC's governments even though he lives in Monaco and not bounded by the laws of any country IMO. I know Klaus Eckhoff and the stocks he was involved for a long time which I have never opportunity to buy in by some reason. I must say, yes he is really very experienced.
No need to make any more comments. You can't make business with corrupt governments and dictators. Things can change in one day. Too much risk I believe. I wouldn't put my hard earned money in danger in that country.
Anyway it's all yours now. I don't want to talk on these AVZ threads anymore. Good luck to you guys.
