I take your point that processing mixed salts at 4.8% K would double the tonnage of evaporative product to the processing plant as against the original test figures. This must increase both the capital + operating costs.

In the testing 40% of the input K reported to Stage 3 at 8.8% K in mixed salts with similar float results to original forecasts.

Since the resource is v. large compared to the proposed production would a selective harvest of Stage 3 to be plant processed be a viable option as the main impact would be in the evaporative pond sizing?
