Impact: Mildly Positive
Commissioning of the prototype pilot plant has started and is an important step before a commercial production decision (2020). We believe the commissioning of the prototype pilot plant is an important step towards securing an offtake agreement. This in turn would help fund the construction of a full-scale operation. We continue to believe that Standard Lithium is one of the best ways gain exposure to the space as it already has access to a producing brine field (permits in-a-hand, no exploration work required).
