    Yes @3steps, in rereading our 3rd Quarterly Report, I wondered about that- their mention of amblygonite specifically. From page 9:

    "In mid-January 2021, the Company was issued with a US patent for its process technology for lithiumrecovery from phosphate minerals, which include amblygonite. The patent adds a further processtechnology to the Company’s suite of technologies."

    As it's mentioned again in yesterday's quarterly, a quick Google search revealed that amblygonite is found in:

    • the Pala district of San Diego County, California
    • the Black Hills of South Dakota
    • the White Picacho district in Arizona
    • small amounts in New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, Maine, Connecticut and New Hampshire


    Then from a mineral site, amblygonite sample reference #3:

    Past announcements on Karibib mentioned a minor presence of amblygonite. Perhaps the present drilling campaign will turn up more, especially as you say, as it can contain up to 10% lithium (from Wikipedia). Also that the crystals can be enormous. The largest measured was 7.62 × 2.44 × 1.83 m3 and weighed ~102 tons. Hooley dooley.
