Fair whack @sabine and I agree my question was a tiny bit inflammatory but I stand by "... employees doing sweet FA" is a fair assumption in my view. Pessimistic, yes ... inaccurate, no. What exactly do you envisage the huge workforce is doing? What are all our NEDs doing?

By my best guess based on very limited info is:

• TR (COO) and his explo/geo/enviro lead will be dealing with the EPA
• GA (CEO) is doing his conference/speaking rounds as normal
• Small team co-ordinating with Wood on the OFS
• Operations team at Electrolyte facility business-as-usual
• AVL/VSUN social media person sharing other companies good news stories but nothing for AVL aside from when GA is speaking next

That leaves alot of people within the company potentially doing sweet FA. I posted a screenshot of their Shareholder Communication Policy yesterday, as I firmly believe a bit more sharing on what they're up to will go a long way.

re: the NEDs and new hires networking/spreading the word, I would more like to believe that post-merger and when the G-binitha EPA was progressing well, they were knocking on all doors for the project and investors then. There should be no more doors to knock on and contacts to reach out to at this point.
