Dukey, well done; you almost got something right. PS paid that £1,000 to Christie's Hospital yet, you know, you being a man of your word and all that good stuff?
Dukey, work it through logically. For Juno the big prize is bringing Mt Ida into production (2bn+ tonnes of Magnetite at Mt Ida and they stopped drilling because the had so much). Their stated intention is to bring Mt Mason into production (haematite, relatively small and higher cost as a consequence) to be able to fund Mt Ida coming into production.
RRR's royalty is 0.75% on all iron ore produced on the Mt Ida tenements; no other mineral are included from what I remember. So if lithium is there then RRR won't get a royalty from it. However, it might make it a bit easier to bring Mt Ida into production. The potential lithium is on the Mt Ida tenements and so might make it easier to get a JV partner in. From the map it looks like where the potential lithium is won't interfere with the Magnetite project.
