Good to see progress. This should give detailed information on the actual core assays. From the limited information looks like an ideal application for the Beechy design selective solution mining, minimal water use, no evaporation, simple contact cooled crystallizers, Maybe $40m for 150,000 tpa on two well system. We'll see what the core look like.

The planned pilot plant is for 50,000 tpa not 150,000 tpa. What do you think the capex for this pilot plant would be ?

There are various options available. A simple 50,000 tpa mine could probably built to produce a crystalline product for less than $10 to $20m but this depends on availability of utilities to feed the plant. Ultimately we need to know about the ore formation before making any recommendations. The Beechy design is very simple, yet remarkably efficient.
