My interpretaion of the coarse spodume crystals is that fluid flow which hosts the lithium ( siurced from granitic rocks) and the fractionation process has progressed over a long time frame geologically speaking. Thats a positive ( I think), anyway as far as other Li explorers are concerned the coarser spodumenes tend to be favoured in terms of grade and potential. So thats a good sign. The 140m of sub-outcrop likely means the strike length will be more beneath the soil cover as the pegmatite extent is partly obscured by the cover . Would like to see some ground penetrating radar geophysics done, or magnetics ( to see what the demagnetized extent is ) to get an indication of the size/strike in the lead up to drilling, if there is sufficient time.
