RE:RE:RE:RE:CRE vs Core Lithium (CXO.AX)The only thing related to this that I can summon up is our recovery rate that is higher than average.
So if our recovery rate is 86% and Core has 78% (just guessing) then that sort of compensates for the lower concentration in the rock.
If you look at Nemaska, their lithium percentage was pretty high but they had a high reject rate because of the rock content (gabro) that was almost the same density as spodumene concentrate. Using the flotation method.
So, the advertized lithium content in any given mine does not tell the hole story.
