    Geology and mineralogy of the pegmatite and related mineral processing aspects: One of the most useful tools to locate pegmatites is traditional geological mapping and analysis of mineralogy (London, 2018). The ability to recognise coarse, pegmatitic rock types along with possible zonation in relation to S-type granite intrusions and surrounding country rock is key.At this early stage it becomes critical to conduct mineralogical investigations (e.g. XRD or petrography) in order to i.) identify key lithium-bearing minerals, such as spodumene, eucryptite (secondary alteration mineral of spodumene, potentially not recoverable), lepidolite, zinnwaldite or petalite, ii.) quantify the purity/ contamination of the ore by deleterious elements (F, Fe, P) and iii.) determine potential recovery and processing methods, such as conventional flotation, gravity or magnetic separation technologies.This is of importance as, usually, it is challenging to visually identify and distinguish these minerals from common rock-forming minerals and to inform the investor community of the cost of producing lithium concentrate. In addition, it is absolutely essential to report lithium grades (see 3.) along with a specification of the nature of lithium minerals present in the deposit. This becomes even more important when minerals with industrial applications are considered (Clause 49, JORC 2012 Edition).

    I don't post this to down ramp, just being honest. I am here for Argentina and don't want to spend much $ on the Aussie tenements when Argentina is so much more promising. Want to be mindful of further dilution via cap raises.
