Reviewing satellites maps... Ivana's deposit is directly south of Picos Salar watershed.
= Highly likely Picos formed = Ivana's #1 deposit
= Picos contributed portion to western #2 deposit.
= Western #2 has two watershed influxes + potential fault
See for youself.... Ivana # 1 is immediately below Picos Salar.

Well... it was once filled to the brim with water ( older water marks surrounding )
Depending on which satellite map one looks at vs year class photos....
Sometimes it's seen with wet sands, few meters of water.....etc...
Similar to Argentine Lithium Salars High low watershed recharge seasons.
More incoming water = Mineral replenishment If grades are decent and if one mines according to static vs influx = longevity mining.
So yeah....
i did write this in former post but.... ( 3 times the post was zapped ) grrrr.
4 th time.... noticed the post was missing the most important subject.
Ivana #1 deposit is related to Picos Salar.
= if Ivana is sweet then..... what would the salar offer up ?
= sediments = concentrate minerals
There....
Done researching.
Cheers....
