Lithium mining at Bonnie Claire
I am curious if anyone here looked into the kinds of equipment/techinques that would be required to mine the lithium deposits at Bonnie Cliare. The technical report from 2018 mentions high water table and suggests that dredging or other techniques would be required for extraction. I wonder if that translates to significantly higher costs vs. open pit mining or brine extraction.

I don't think the technology used for extraction has been made public and is still under development (patent pending maybe as well) by another company called St-Georges Eco-Mining (SX). Here is the link: https://st-georgescorp.com/thecnology/3162-2/ Iconic has already inked out a deal with SX.
