I was neither comparing nor attempting to compare LLL to WA lithium companies.
If you actually learnt to read, it was highlighting that WA miners (ie LTR) will have their own logistic issues.
You don't think labour shortages and cost blowouts in WA are going to be an issue?
Maybe you should contact the Australian Resources and Energy Employers Association and tell them they have it wrong?

Or contact the local radio station and the ABC and tell them to stop spreading untruths?

++ If you think it only a short term problem, think again, the deficit in labour has been increasing year on year

To add to that, there is a shortage of truck drivers in Western Australia

I do note that you have thrown in more BS scare mongering
with insinuations of transport ambushes in Mali, and then tried to back track and say "its not actual attacks, it's the risks that it could happen ...... " -- sorry, hijacking a truck load of Lithium?
Maybe the reduction in transport costs from using the 50t payload trailers will need to pay for armoured guards?
I could only imagine the boss of the (imaginary figment of your mind) hijacking gang asking -- WTF are we supposed to do with this white shiet???
Seriously, you really are embarrassing yourself ...... "no need to debate" because as Red Baron explained earlier, you don't have the capabilities!!!!
~ How much capital has Ganfeng spent on this project thus far, and how much on the Hydroxide Convertor to take Goulamina Spodumene?
~ VRM (Valuation & Resource Management) were commission to do a technical assessment report on the project, given that they identified risks but yet Ganfeng was still a signatory to the JV -- sheez there are some dumb multi $billion companies on this planet, eh?
Transport:
Based on the minimum throughput of 250,000 tpa to go through the port at
Abidjan, Côte d'lvoire.
250,000 / 50 = 5,000 loads per annum = 14 loads / 24 hours = 1 load every 1hour 45 mins - do your own calculations to match to mine output to trucks needed, I already wasted 10 minutes on your dribble.
