US Dept of Energy

Dear Paradox Basin holders

Please i am looking for answers and ONLY A CIVIL DISCUSSION as this is very important question for both companies in the region-


Can anyone here explain why MAN was chosen over ASN to " characterise and estimate reserves of Lithium
and other critical minerals in the Paradox Basin" 2 weeks ago

These are extremely hard to get as stated-
" Mandrake’s successful qualification for DoE funding provides crucial validation of the Utah Lithium Project given DoE’s rigorous selection process of grant applications".

What would be the reason for the US Dept of Energy for their decision considering ASN has spent so much money at Paradox exploring.

I am hoping we can have a civil discussion into why this is, because I am curios to know the answer to this question.
