Say 24/7 operation to produce 25000T means 8760 hours a year. so we need to process just under 3T per hour to be able to produce 25000T p.a.
we can process lithium in 2 hours but we need to be able to produce the 3T per hour....hope the pilot plant numbers in coming announcements will show this....hope someone can check these numbers too.

so if we know we can extract 90% of the lithium from the brine and if we have over 300mg/L concentration then we can work out the size of the pumps and flow rates.... i think at a glance thats say 3L of brine to make a gram of lithium. thats 3000L to make a kg of lithium. Thats 3M litres to make a tonne of lithium thats about 10Million litres to make 3 tonnes of lithium. so if we make 3T per hour thats 166000L/min...thats 3000Litres per second ....or conceptually ..this big boy would do it
