RE: Next-ChemX pilot plant17 May 2024 13:06
Think of it as a long term project, where Bolivia are selecting partners to work with as a JV. This isn't going to be a quick pilot plant and bish bosh bash now we'll build a full scale facility. There will be 2-3 years of consultation, fine tuning and improving, securing the Supply Chains for the filter, sensors and equipment etc is paramount and not an insubstantial task. BoL Gov is not selecting partners on the basis they can deliver tomorrow or the next day. It doesn't need to be a multi million Chinese outfit thats good to go... That Clon/Next Chem have an approach that is unique and of serious interest will qualify them as Long Term Partners IMO and then Bolivia can really support and build with Clon to get the tech working at an industrial scale. Whether it does or doesn't will be a journey of discovery for both parties much further down the line, it isn't going to absolutely determine the outcome of the contracts at this early stage. They can rip them up and go down a different route in a couple of years if needs be!!
