2mt of ore feed at say 1.8% lithium grade feeding into the plant, might produce around 500kt of 6% concerntrate after accounting for say 85% recovery. At US$300 ton margin, thats US$150m p/a in revenue which is our long term (near worse case) scenario.
We need a 4mt pa plant, and current the high of $US900+ ton pricing to remain in place to get US$600 ton margin, which would then get us the US$600m pa in revenue.
But the way things are going with the rapid adoption of EV we may very well get there in only a few years time!!!
