Thanks, Jdice. Glad to see you posting here again.  Post more often!

Always good to keep in mind the community outreach efforts of LAC and Nevada Lithium.  I do wish they would update that information with more recent additions, especially in light of the perception of community rejection that comes with this recent legal challenge by some members of the Fort McDermitt Paiute and Shoshone Tribe and by the tribal government of the Reno Sparks Indian Colony.  I can easily see that it must be difficult to continue to make the effort at community outreach in the face of this litigious situation, however when a mine is projecting a 46 year potential life then it is even more important that mine management makes the extra effort to overcome the resistance to their presence and to make the genuine effort to assuage all the concerns of those local folks as much as circumstance and limitations permit.

  It is imperative that the Native American objections and concerns be taken seriously by LAC.  46 years is way too long to just try and bluff your way through, even if the legal system winds up giving you permission to proceed with the mine.. and we aren't there yet.  This is the time, in spite of the negative feedback from some Native American groups to intensify efforts at coming to a rapport with them, not to gloat at a legal battle or two won or that might be won in the future... there is more to this than just what the out of state environmental "activists" and the other attorneys are making it to be.

  I know I repeat myself ( a bad habit that I will attribute to old age and bad diet ) but:  I really like the article that Alexi Zawadzki wrote on 28 April 2021 and the way he aspired for Nevada Lithium to be a "Good Neighbor".  If we do what Alexi Zawadzki said in that article then I don't see how Nevada Lithium and Lithium Americas can possibly lose over the next 46 years plus with all of their neighbors, Native Americans and non Native Americans alike.
