Ann: Non-binding MOU executed to build & operate hydroxide plant, page-112

I don't have a problem with a Hxdroxide plant being built in Saudi Arabia because, as already mentioned, the energy costs there are very very low.....I'm just saying that the possibility is dwindling that the mine will then also be opened and the lithium, as already mentioned here by some, will probably come from somewhere else...but probably not from Austria.

There are offers from leading battery manufacturers in Europe and to sell concentrate to companies in China. The Austrian government does not want the company to sell cheaper concentrate to China and have to re-import it later. The government wants a high quality product to be sold directly to battery manufacturers in Europe.
