RE:AVZ introduces Yibin Tianyi Lithium as a Strategic Investor
yeah CATL owns TTX. seen on AVZ forums them saying Tantalex needs permision to access those tailings... They have already done work there and obviously have some connection/relationship with AVZ ..
Tantalex has completed the following exploration on the Manono Tailings Project to date:
•Grab sampling and associated laboratory assays
•Handheld GPS survey
•Bulk sampling for metallurgical testwork
•Access road investigation on Manono tailings
•An Exploration Target wascompleted in September 2018Mineralisation encountered on the Manono tailings varied from spodumene and lepidolite, to traces of cassiterite. The tailings dumps are composed of coarser material averaging 3-5 mm particle size (40 to 60 m in vertical height), whilethe terraces are composed of finer grained materials and average approximately 5 m in thickness.Future work programs are plannedconfirm as much as possible the variability and distribution of Li2O grades within the Tailings dumps.
Work planned includes a preliminary auger program, a 5,000m aircore drill program, assaying, detailed topographical survey, and metallurgical tests for defining initial process flowsheet.In addition, aNI43-101 compliant Mineral Resource Estimate is planned to be completedwithin Q3 2019.
