Well its like the back of the school bus at the end of a trip in here.

So on a positive note:
- JV with Puna Mining one of the most experienced Li Chemical Engineers on the Planet
- 77.5% ownership of JV with scope to 90%
- 2794Ha of tenements owned thru Puna Mining
- 38Ha of evaporation ponds supporting 2k5 LCE tpa
- Industrial Pilot Plant built, commissioned and producing/stockpiling
- BG LCE produced and confirmed
- Outstanding PEA of 10KT tpa (approx. 125,000 EV batteries pa) over 16ys @ IRR of 53% and EBITDA margin of 61%
- Scope to increase as resource open at depth and/or more tenements
- BG LCE starting to ship to Mitsubishi rtm after 12m of confirmation of product circa June 2019
- Hydroxide verified in house shipping to customers for testing
- Approval sort for large scale operations from authorities
- Discussion ongoing with commercial partners
- Top 20 solid only one out/in
- I've probably missed some off the top of my head

Can hardly be labelled a scam as per some detractors. There may be errors in reporting at times but I think we need to keep in mind how small the team is, 3 directors, an admin person and a part time Chairman. We may have some way to go yet as the instos/sof wash there insta profit thru however as the macro continues to build and negotiations continue favourably hopefully there are some brighter days to come.

Looking forward to:
- Large scale approval by authorities
- Possibly more tenement options
- Hydroxide confirmation from customers
- positive updates re OT or commercial progress
- no more cap raises

IMHO DYOR
