Thanks for reposting this @rkeeb.

I agree it is important to understand where others are coming from when dealing with a values driven conflict like this.  

I am concerned about the timing though.  This land was scoped by  Chevron for uranium in the mid 1970s .   What they found was a large lithium deposit too.

Western Lithium was founded in mid 2000s after the Chevron exploration documents were found and lithium now had a new role.

My point being...this land has been in the process of exploration and development for a long time.   They surely would have known this.  There have been drill rigs , heavy equipment  for several years.

So why now????
