Clipper,

Imo, Largo would not really need nor want  the average price of V2O5 to go up too high for 2 reasons:

1) If LCE wanted to capture 3% of the VRFB market by 2025, an average V2O5 price below US$9/lb would help its market penetration more than a higher price. 

2) The Technical Report indicates that to generate an after-tax NPV of US$2B the mining operations only need a weighted average price of US$8.80/lb inclusive of High Purity V2O5 premium. Considering the fact that HP premium = US$1.5 - 2.5/lb above the standard V2O5 they only need the average V2O5 spot price to be around US$6.3 - 7.3/lb to get the US$2B NPV. 


"Technical report indicates $2.8-billion pretax NPV (net present value) with 7-per-cent discount rate/$2-billion after-tax NPV with 7-per-cent discount rate for Largo's mining operations, using weighted average price of $8.80 per pound (lb) vanadium pentoxide (inclusive of high-purity V2O5 premium)..."





(sigh) it is down to 7.5 and probably tracking iron core prices.
