AVZ Discussion 2022

It's nice to talk about the value of the tin, but realistically if they're digging up and processing lithium the tin will just be a secondary by-product, and only if infrastructure is added to process that. The only way tin will be a big revenue earner is if the ore mined is sent to two separate processing plants - one for lithium and one for tin. That might be a smart way for the eventual miners to set up the mine, so that either option can be ramped up or down depending on prices at the time.

In the last DFS AVZ included the Tin and the cost of the seperate refining process.....the 2 billion US$ LOM is net income after costs. AVZ would be stupid not to include the Tin.....for sure it's a by product, but still very profitable.

And there are a few other by products { SN, TA, FE2o3,P20S } which are not included yet....but might be in the BFS which is not released yet...

Don’t forget the tin!
