re: Diving deeper on Standard Lithium?

It's too bad that Lanxess has dibs on the lithium from the Lanxess project. Otherwise we might have had a nice Tesla/Ford/GM offtake PR by now.
Man, it sounds like the SWA offtake is also spoken for by Koch Minterals & Trading.
I guess all we have left are these upcoming reports and construction and possible expansion?

I believe the question of the moment is what process is Exxon and Tetra going to use to extract the lithium from their bromine?
SLI has been testing both their own LISTR process and Koch's LiPro process. I believe the agreement with Koch provides SLI with exclusive rights to use the Li-Pro process in the Smackover Formation (if it turns out better than the LISTR process), which I think covers the Exxon and Tetra mineral properties along with SLI's East Texas mineral properties.
So if Lanxess takes the offtake from their projects, Koch takes the offtake from the SW Ark project, and IF SLI gets the contract to extract the lithium for the Exxon/Tetra mineral properties with Tesla and Ford taking the offtake.... then that would be good news in my opinion. Just hopeful speculation at this point.
Does anyone have any info regarding which extraction process Exxon and Tetra plan to use?

I wonder if it is too late to start building a Tetra position? I have one but it's miniscule compared to SLI position.
