This is actually amazing to hear, this has been one of my concerns about the Lithium space as a whole, whether brine or hard rock, but more hardrock than brine, is how would it effect water (which is related to both), and for hardrock I quietly had my concerns with the likes of WR1 and PMT on how much vegatation would need to be removed in order to turn over 50Mt, 100Mt+ of rock and dirt, I don't see how that could be better for the environment in that way.

Imo logging for wood is way more sustainable when done right, because at least in countries like here in Australia the trees get replanted as soon as they get logged, where as open cut hardrock mines in forested areas, you probably aren't seeing restoration being done for several decades and it is a lot of ground has to be dug up to get a little bit of lithium out of the ground. However that part of it is not a concern for Lithium Brine which is good, fresh water was my only concern, which is a massively critical precious resource, everybody needs fresh water.

So cheers for sharing.
