Thanks for that link @BytheHorns

From what I can gather (roughly) regarding intitial Stage 2 ponds:
~ 2-3 months from start of earthworks to start lining
~ 1 month to complete lining
~ 2-3 weeks to fill ponds

Roughly 4-5 months. Looks like the Stage 2 expansion already had a bit of a headstart with construction though and considering the same contractor will be used (more efficient 2nd time around?) I'd guess ponds complete & full of brine before August...?

Also quite interesting when you change settings to the Moisture Index. Looks to be quite dark blue (higher flow rates?) in the South East corner of the salar and surprise surprise right in front of the Stage 1 & Stage 2 ponds. It's almost as though it's been planned like that....
