"Prospects of self-sufficiency in the lithium industry: four sustainable lithium mining projects totalling € 2 billion have been launched in Europe (ES, PT, DE/CZ, DE/FR)"

Interesting, I assumed German Zinnwaldite was still too early stage. Rio's Jadar mine in Serbia isn't listed?

The initial phase 1 Cinovec was 400m euros cost for 25kt. This number from the EU hints that there will be 125-200kt of capacity by 2023ish. Without being silly, Cinovec must be at least 50kt if not 75kt at a later year development.

Norway has already been oil-based engineers in the Norwegian lakes and fjords. Wouldn't be surprised to see them take this a step further.

If nothing else, Norway already has an abundance and excess of hydroelectric power they like to sell onto the Nordic common power grid.

Out of interest, how will the tin/tungsten be separated from the mica-lithium?

I was assuming that the raw ore could be crushed in a 'standard process', with an electro-magnetic separating line splitting out the ferrous/metallic into concentrated ores. At this point, I assume it would have a different density, so you could probably just use a generic "shaker/gravity sorting" machine to separate out all the layers?

Is it that simple, or is the tin/tungsten bound into a chemical compound, that needs further processing? (chemical or otherwise).

Asx max trade was 42p today

Yes to the "near term development". From recollection, Czech PM has recently introduced a new streamlined planning permission process. Given all the recent noise, it genuinely seems Cinovec was the driver for this change.

Dwi'n hoffi coffi a lithiwm!

It was a bit confusing but the US market is ping ponging in every direction so don't worry about it too much
We have their attention, that much if clear

Wunderbar!

Yes it is apparently. Trading peaked at 49p earlier today on the US EMH otc

I'll stop updating now, but 37.2p just went through.

and 36p ....

34.5 sale...gone through.

Man, someone is hungry for shares, moderate volume going through at 33-34p. Someone just bought 60-70k in a few minutes in similar parcels.

34p improved my afternoon considerably!

Ha, well I am pleased with the 30% increase since errr.. Wednesday.

I think there was a technical spike yesterday, with the herd movement of that Tesla/EMH video, it does have a habit of spiking rapidly as yesterday was the first time US investors could buy into this stock. Today is just normal trading with added sentiment

I would be pleased to see 50+p by Xmas. The newsflow of recent weeks is...unusually positive.

Blimey, wasn't expecting a US listing, although I'm not 100% sure how OTC broking works.

"very near future" 1-2 weeks then?? Yum yum.

US market shares were ping ponging in a crazy way.

I see CEZ have sold a 1GW coal power plant for £100m this week. These are not trivial sales.. Divestment?

Does the ASX open at 11pm London time?

I would take anything from Zak Mir/share talk/directors Talk/similar AIM market services with a grain of salt.

By no means am I saying they are bad or unreputable. But be realistic about what these sites are and what they do for a living. Many of these sites will bluntly state on their website they are just selling financial PR for brokerage/PR/coverage/drumming up interest in AIM cos.

Uhhh, is that a technicality Iain? They are on the Frankfurt exchange. But agreed I want them on the Czech market.

I suspect part of the interest and video is related to our friends at DGWA fixing things for us in the background. If so, this is just the start of a rather crazy 6 months.

Like I mentioned the other day, the likelihood that CEZ sold Europe's largest onshore windfarm for £900m (ish) seems too much of a coincidence for me. Major activity going on in the background and once sat on the Czech market I suspect things will move quickly.

31p broken....
