Pretty good numbers here.

Scope is ~3x SWA project scope.

Capital cost is only ~2x the SWA project scope.

Operating cost per ton is about 20% less than the SWA project.

NPV of $5B compared to SWA NPV of $1.7B.

Long term I guess it comes down to the Moat that lithium will have over other battery types.

Market seems to not give a shite about anything other than lithium prices.

Yup. Hopefully FID gets us back to the $4ish range. Commercial proof of concept (which is still years away) should bring the value of the Texas project closer to real.

The combined value of both projects should have the company trading around $15 and floating with lithium prices. I think the closer we get to 2030, the closer we get to that number.

AI may end us all before the MFer gets to $15.

Wouldn't it be less appealing to him now that the lithium is going to other entities? Although he could have east Texas operating before SLI could get SWA going.

I'd be up BIG this year if it wasn't for SLI. Maybe we're about to get the final offtake agreement and FID and they can at least break ground ceremonially by year's end.

Classic flashback to early days on Standard Lithium tracking that run-up from $0.69. Trusting insider buying and partnerships like Laxness makes for a classic speculative stock discussion.

I see there is a town-hall meeting in Stamps, AR Thursday afternoon. That would sure be a good time to make the announcement!!
