RE:RE:To put it in perspective - with a dash of reality...My take on it is this. Albemarle are not going to let go of their hold on Clayton Valley and Pure Energy is building it's own land position, currently by acquisition and is generally doing this by issuing shares thereby diluting itself. Perhaps it is looking for it's land position to ultimately become a target for Albemarle? There are a number of technology/land firms in the valley and they all are trying to perfect their sediment and/or brine processes and none seem to be colluding with others yet. Enertopia has cleverly combined a land position with a technology and seems (IMO) to be the most likely to come up with a process to produce battery grade (not merely concentrate) Li2CO3. Now if Enertopia were to work with any other local companies at this stage it would be giving away it's advantage. If it manages to perfect the process then it can take it's pick of who to license it to. The process is hoped to work both with sediment and with brine (and I make no excuses for not being a chemical engineer here), but I hope I can identify a potentially global industry changing technology with real and significant monetary implication, that will translate to a massive increase in shareholder value (loose translation ; rising share price), ENertopia has greater options moving forwards in employing it's technology either through licensing or it's own production but if it can be demonstrated that it works on sediment then the whole area lights up. Regarding recent volume, it would be nice to think that we are close to news on results. Perhaps this is it or perhaps were seeing the results of the new IR firm, announced recently? Whichever or whatever it is I am sure we are making progress and I am confident that management is working on it's own plan, whatever we might speculate or want them to do. Just maybe, management are keeping their options open and thinking that their technology could become highly sought after by the lithium oligarchy? Bottom line is we have many options. If the technology proves disappointing (and it's possible although I think and hope unlikely) then we still have the land with superb lithium values, should a competitor perfect the process first. Either or any way, as I see it we are trading far too cheaply and recent market activity is beginning to pick this up. GLTA!
