Dear_Lithium mining gouger/killer Senator CommieDaniel Núñez,_we read today
that after the latest trouncing of the leftist/commie new constitution rewrite on September 4 which would have turned Chile into a commie-style Venezuela sheethole #2 https://www.telesurenglish.net/news/The-Chilean-Constituent-Process-Was-Tied-Up-President-Maduro-20220906-0001.html that you (ie Commie Senator Daniel Núñez) now want to take all your party's marbles in the Senate home and boycott the "New/Reborn" Boric government as he bends to the people's will and tries to move from the extreme left more to left-center in Chile https://www.latercera.com/politica/noticia/no-corresponde-dar-ultimatum-politico-oficialismo-critica-advertencia-de-nunez-pc-sobre-salir-del-gobierno-si-este-deja-de-lado-su-programa/6R7C4RJ4ZVAENH4Z6RIPW4DY24/
Rough translation into English
Note:in the Google translation "We will take our little things and go"... Núñez is more likely saying "We will take our marbles and go home" (with the veiled threat to possibly to pick up our weapons).
Well Senator Núñez, we lithium miners who you really-really want to rape full blast will be wishing you a fond goodbye... and don't let the screen door hit you in theass on your way out of the Senate "with your marbles". Good riddance.

Dear_Akdjnr, why_don't you_take Kensington001's_advice and_start your own_thread
https://hotcopper.com.au/threads/lpi-the-next-lithium-producer-in-chile.6650218/page-1461?get_post=true&direction=previous
You could name the thread "Pseudo Lithium Wisdom from Akdjnr".
That way normal people looking for intelligent discussion ON LPI-HotCopper don't have to wade through all your stupid self-pumping useless twitter crap, your convoluted secondhand information that you should have written first hand on HotCopper if it was even real/true to start with, your constant mind-numbing transitory charts forgettable within 60 seconds and your re-quotes from pompous nitwits (like you) https://hotcopper.com.au/threads/lpi-the-next-lithium-producer-in-chile.6650218/page-1462?get_post=true simply wanting to blow their own horn ringing up more eyeball hits on their toy twitter accounts. Normal people can then stay on the REAL threads at LPI-HotCopper and the people (like always lost mental midget Ezy124) who like reading your drivel/twitter-redirects can stay on your "Pseudo Lithium Wisdom from Akdjnr" thread. Everybody wins that way.
Anymore even I dread seeing and wading through your "commercialized" rote brain-dead unoriginal mechanical posts... in fact I would rather be made to read 3 TheGekko posts over having to read even one of your posts. You are more tiresome and boring than even self-promoting Donald Trump.

The value of Martin Borda's SB private company is staying put and the value of Bearing is staying put since these two companies don't have to support the likes of the incompetent stone-walling freeloaders running LPI in the luxurious fashion they have grown accustomed to over the last 5 years of their padded free ride for doing nothing.

PS, and I know what you are thinking... you are thinking "why doesn't Mitsui just put some good faith money (eg $5M) into LPI today to get get them through this rough patch because soon enough Mitsui will make a billion dollars in the first phase and who will care about a piddling $5M spent in September of 2022?"
Well that is a very good question punky... but nobody in Australia has a simple focking answer for you.

PS, and don't forget to mention that you and LPI management didn't even once register yourselves as REJECTIONISTS to the new constitution rewrite... not one single tiny peep out of any of you spineless scammers.

https://hotcopper.com.au/threads/lpi-the-next-lithium-producer-in-chile.6650218/page-1411?post_id=63557151
All the delays on this project are the result of the ozzies... not 3rd parties. We have had a rare exploitation mining permit (15,200mtpa) solidly in our hands for way over the 6 years since LPI got involved in this project that we sold to them, we have had a full-blown updated EIA approval by the SEA for 4 years, we have had countless construction schedules from LPI saying construction was going to start every year since 2018 that have all been wadded up and used as toilet paper, we have not one single recorded discussion with a lithium take-off lithium user/buyer (other than Fulin in 2017), not one single discussion with a financial investor/partner/white-knight, not one single penny in standard-industry good faith money received by NewCo/MSB in 2 years from the supposed project mystery financier Mitsui (who we don't even know the executives' names in charge of Maricunga), and not one itty-bitty single update (or even cursory question to LPI regarding the project) in 2 years on their DD (due diligence)... and now TheGekko is telling you this DD is due for miraculous completion out of the blue sky any day now when we in Maricunga haven't seen one single jap on the project doing testing/surveying/inspections in these last 2 years of the MOU (ie an MOU that no one has ever seen).
TheGekko brags "I understand that investor interest in Maricunga from China, ex-China Asia and the US has been enormous"... but if you ask him who specifically is expressing interest or who he received this information from he will go stupefying silent.... because he is totally full of BS like the rest of the ozzies running this scam.
Dear Shan, listen to TheGekko at your own risk... and hold on to your wallet when he kicks up his pumps.

We have all our financial records and Canadian/USA permits/registrations/legal stuff in fine condition here so don't you dare raise that lame excuse again to your gullible ask-lickers on that toy LPI-HotCopper message board. The REAL hang-up is you frocking ozzies need to complete the toxic-exit DeMerger you were supposed to finish last July. No one especially us Canadians/beaners is stupid enough to "consolidate" with you lying ozzie scam artists until you wankers come clean on how much ACTUAL cash will be ultimately left in the LPI-Chile bank account and how much is going out the backdoor into the breakaway LPI-WA bank account.
I for one and all the members in our investment group will keep demanding (again) that our AGM meeting be postponed until you sneaky scammers execute your DeMerger out in the Daylight where everyone can see it. The next delay we will demand from Gil Playford will be the end of January because no one wants to travel to Vancouver during or even near the Christmas holidays.

Lithium Monopoly In The Making? Beijing Expands In The Lithium Triangle – Analysis
Is the previously shot-down-in-flames (by Governor Miguel Vargas, Mining Minister Marcela Hernando, and woo-woo Camar indians) Chilean 80,000mt LCE export quota license Lithium Tender previously awarded to Build Your Dreams (BYD) now being resurrected in China's favor with the REJECTION?
Reprint follows of paragraph 3 from above Eurasia Review September 5 article complete with original bookmarks/hyperlinks which I urge you to open in your browser for the historical perspective:
China’s acquisition of Chilean mining company Sociedad Quimica y Minera de Chile’s (SQM) shares and mining contracts enables Beijing to maintain economic dominance within the Chilean lithium mining industry. Chile harbors 20% share of the global mining production of lithium. On October 4th, 2018, Chile’s antitrust court “Tribunal de la libre Competencia” granted Chinese mining corporation Tanqui a 24% acquisition in SQM. Chile’s SQM manages one of the largest lithium production operations in the world. On 14 January 2022, Chile’s Ministry of Mining granted China’s Build Your Dreams (BYD) Company a $61 million contract. The acquisition of the mining contract enables China’s exploitation of 80,000 tons of lithium; this latest expansion, representing 1.8% of China’s known lithium reserves, will further embolden Chinese resource dominance in global lithium markets. In 2021,
China imported 39% of Chile’s lithium.

Climber18,_why in_the hell_are you_expecting_the ozzies_to move_their share price up?
They control nothing. I had forecast a bump in share price at 3PM their time Monday https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=169862977 and they got a 4% rise at 3PM in the resulting domino effect, but they are completely powerless to raise it any higher on their own.
Now that the REJECTION is in place there are only three priorities, three tasks for us to support as we outlined in post 2768 https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=169869588 and those three priorities are:
1. Pressure the Chilean Lower Chamber of Deputies to re-introduce and approve by simple 4/7 vote the repeal of the Strategic Mineral Classification on Lithium.
2. Demand and support the removal of anti-male anti-mining anti-USA Marcela Hernando as Minister of Mining to be replaced by ex-Minister of Mining Juan Carlos Jobet or Willy Kracht.
3. Demand the complete removal of NewCo/MSB management top to bottom by supporting the (any) upcoming hostile takeover.
Add Wish list 4. Fire Crystalballs to show the entire lithium industry (mainly Whitey gringos) we are now super serious by getting into the lithium business.
There is nothing else available to NewCo/MSB over the next 12 months. We now need a hostile takeover by one of three possibilities as the negative risk factor on mining investment in Chile clearly diminishes significantly this coming week once Goldman-Sachs, Morgan-Stanley, JP-Morgan and Blackrock start buying into Chilean mining again: The 3 preferred hostile takeover suitors (all cash rich for now) are:
A. Posco-Samsung
B. BYD
C. Tesla
If one of these lithium using majors can infiltrate LPI and Bearing then we shareholders have to swear our allegiance to them and vote out the current management and vote down any attempt our management puts up to further screw this suitor or try to infect their (ie the suitor's) brains with their ozzie debilitating slime-brain disease which would render them totally non-functional and full-blown moron wankers like LPI.
This is our fate now... we are on our own again and the proof of it will be obvious Tuesday at 5PM when LPI and Bearing fail to issue any new "guidance" to shareholders after this monumental political/economic sea change coming to Chile as outlined by the former president of the Chilean Central Bank Vittorio Corbo very early this morning https://www-latercera-com.translate.goog/pulso/noticia/vittorio-corbo-esto-cambia-las-expectativas-el-partido-estaba-muy-desordenado-y-ahora-se-va-a-ordenar-y-esa-es-una-muy-buena-noticia-para-la-economia/HWYPM22I4VDCROZ2NKY4OFSJ3Q/?_x_tr_sl=es&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-US&_x_tr_pto=wapp (which you can send to those stupido pussy clueless Europeans you were following Sunday morning in your post 2766)

Socialist_Senator Fidel_Espinoza:_“Let the_conventionalists ask_Chile for forgiveness”
“Let the conventionalists ask Chile for forgiveness” and the President “make a change of ministers ”. Those were the words of the official senator Fidel Espinoza (PS), after seeing the first calculations of the constitutional referendum, which positioned the Rejection option in first place with 6.40% of the polling stations counted. https://www-latercera-com.translate.goog/nacional/noticia/que-los-convencionales-le-pidan-perdon-a-chile-la-alerta-del-senador-fidel-espinoza-ps-ad-portas-del-resultado-del-plebiscito/O4MJE4IZDNC5LME2QS65VZJREE/?_x_tr_sl=es&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-US&_x_tr_pto=wapp
I have never seen a fascist or right-winger who could out-insult a college educated socialist... Senator Fidel Espinoza is the best so far at kicking these constitutional rewrite conventionalists (comprising mostly leftists, commies, queers, dykes, gimme-gimme-indians, panhandlers, welfare-mamas, scammers, dopers, and grifters) squarely in the nuts after this constitution rewrite debacle.

Reprint first 24 paragraphs below:
According to data from the Electoral Service (Servel) -until 7:47 p.m.- and with 48.01% of the tables scrutinized at the national level, 62.55% imposed that option, while 37.45% did so for the I approve. Experts already consider the result insurmountable and in fact some government officials have already begun to admit defeat.
This Sunday, September 4, citizens went en masse to the polls - in the first election with compulsory voting since 2012 - to decide on the proposal for a new Constitution issued by the Constitutional Convention . Finally, the Chileans decided to reject the proposal that the body worked for a year.
According to data from the Electoral Service (Servel) -until 7:47 p.m.- and with 48.01% of the tables scrutinized at the national level, 62.55% imposed that option, while 37.45% did so for the I approve.
The day was long and was marked by a great citizen participation. From early on, people began to go to their polling places, some even arrived before the opening of the polling stations, due to the time change that was initially going to be this Saturday, but was postponed for a week.
The government gave a positive evaluation of the event , both in terms of participation, public transport and the functioning of the institutions involved during the process.
For his part, President Gabriel Boric, after casting his vote in Magallanes, reiterated his call that whatever the result of the consultation, he would call for a "broad national unity." "I can guarantee that our will and our action, regardless of the result, will be to convene a broad national unity of all sectors, organizations, civil society and political parties," he said.
Approximately 30 minutes after the polls closed, it was also learned that President Boric had summoned all the parties to a meeting for this Monday in La Moneda in order to give "continuity to the constituent process."
The first alarms in the Approval went off at around 7:35 p.m. when the PS senator, Fidel Espinoza, wrote on Twitter a criticism of the convention along with a photo of a table where the Rejection won: “Let the conventional gentlemen take responsibility for this debacle ” , he indicated. Meanwhile, at that same time, on the right they were already beginning to prepare things to celebrate the electoral result.
At 8:00 p.m., another representative of the ruling party joined in recognizing defeat. PPD senator Jaime Quintana assured that "citizens are expressing themselves categorically: the proposal for a new Constitution failed to convince the majority of Chile."
In this way, the Constitution that was established in 1980 during the Augusto Pinochet regime and that has been in force for 4 decades will continue to govern the country, despite the fact that it was reformed on numerous occasions during democracy.
The Rejection was supported from the beginning by the opposition parties to Boric, however, the communities of Chile Vamos and Republicanos decided to remain in a second one, as was shown in the television slot -a space that was ceded to civil society organizations - and in the closing events of the campaign. Important figures in the sector, such as former President Sebastián Piñera and former presidential candidate José Antonio Kast, remained practically silent.
However, the general consensus is that the current Magna Carta -despite the triumph of the Rejection- should continue a process to change the Constitution anyway. At least that is how it was transmitted during the last weeks by government and opposition collectivities. In fact, the President himself made it clear prior to the elections: “ If the Rejection wins, we are going to have to face a new constitutional process, a new Convention , that is going to take a certain amount of time, but the people of Chile It was already defined by having a new Constitution”, he assured on August 20.
The President's statement reflected the change in the position that the government adopted since the proposal for the new Magna Carta was delivered until the day of the plebiscite. This translated into a series of dialogues with various sectors to seek alternatives to the triumph of the Rejection. In recent days, various representatives of the Executive made it clear that the result of this day "was respected" even if the difference was "one vote."
However, the previous role that the government had been adopting around taking more risks with respect to the I approve option in the face of the plebiscite had generated a series of recriminations and questions to the administration of the front party.
The debate that will take place now will be how to continue the process, since there are differences regarding whether a new plebiscite should be held, a debate that generates division within the opposition ; as well as whether a new Convention should be called, a point that was warned by the president of the Chamber, Raúl Soto, who indicated that the above "was not settled." It should also be seen if that body would replicate the rules of the Convention that made the rejected proposal or if other mechanisms should be chosen.
Forging the path ahead, the President reservedly received this week in La Moneda the presidents of the Senate, Álvaro Elizalde and Soto precisely to address the post-election scenarios whether he wins Approval or Rejection.
Congress, for its part, in recent weeks has become the venue for talks -until now informal- between the ruling party and the opposition to reach an agreement that allows the constitutional process to continue. This is how in Democratic Socialism there is a consensus that said agreement must be made "quickly", and even in the PPD they transmit that the idea is to finalize it before September 11, due to the historical connotation that date has.
On the right, meanwhile, in the last few hours it was reported that the parties grouped in Chile Vamos had managed to reach a consensus around a "great agreement" that includes programmatic reforms and the continuity of the constituent process.
A long way
A year, ten months and 8 days have passed since the Chileans, in the plebiscite on October 25, 2020, decided by a large majority (78.31% versus 21.69%) to change the 1980 Constitution and give the beginning of the process for the drafting of a new Magna Carta through a Constitutional Convention that was supported by 79.18% of those who voted that day.
This is how the social outbreak that a year earlier, on October 18, 2019, was unleashed in the country and that shook the political world and, especially, the government of the then President, Sebastián Piñera, and that had a political solution with the Agreement for Peace and the new Constitution of November 15, which was when said plebiscite was authorized.
The path on which Chile embarked from that distant October 2020 was not without gravel and difficulties. The first hurdle was the election of the 155 citizen representatives that would make up the instance, where the majority of the citizens elected independents and the right was relegated to only 37 members of the total conventional.
Then came the installation ceremony of the organ, on July 4, 2021, which was marked by a series of incidents, including the fact that a group of constituents screwed up the national anthem and delayed the inaugural ceremony due to protests that occurred. in the surroundings of the former National Congress in Santiago . This day was marked by the unexpected protagonism of the secretary of Tricel, Carmen Gloria Valladares, who was the one who managed to carry out the act despite the questioning of some constituents. Thus, the work of the organ began with more doubts than certainties.
The problems continued the next day , when the first session of the body held in the premises of the former National Congress in Santiago failed due to logistical problems. Internet failures, equipment that was not enabled and lack of sanitary measures were some of the objections that were repeated among those who attended on July 5.

Latercera is playing games with the Servel voting updates removing them after posting them up as a tease for only a few minutes bowing to leftist/commie pressures most likely... at the 6.4% vote count the subject line results were recorded by Servel.
If REJECTION wins then we have 3 high priorities in the first 15 days:
1. Pressure the Chilean Lower Chamber of Deputies to re-introduce and approve by simple 4/7 vote the repeal of the Strategic Mineral Classification on Lithium.
2. Demand and support the removal of anti-male anti-mining anti-USA Marcela Hernando as Minister of Mining to be replaced by ex-Minister of Mining Juan Carlos Jobet or Willy Kracht.

The main take-away to the new constitution flopping as I see it is... if you put too much horsesheet in, then you will get way too much horsesheet out. The lefties/commies/queers/indians put way too much horsesheet into this 50,000 word magna carta with over 350 articles (FYI: the first American constitution contained only 7 articles with 27 subsequent amendments through today).

... in anticipation of the new Constitution being rejected in Sunday's new constitution vote.
Late Monday around 2Pm to 3PM their time is going to be a wonderful day for the LPI ozzies.
Tuesday is going to be wonderful day for the rest of us long-suffering beaners/Canadians in Maricunga.

Climber18,_Chile has_exceptionally good_voting procedures/computers
If you recall past elections/voting dates the results are usually basically solidified no later than 24 hours after the polls close, but every major news organization (with their instantaneous resources) from countries (like the USA, China, Germany) dying for copper & lithium will be up all Sunday night and Monday morning with "early projections" based on exit polls and normal ongoing reports from voting officials... in the last presidential election defeated Kast gave his concession speech before midnight. I will bet we know the unmistakable result by 1AM Monday morning which will be good timing for the ozzies, great timing for the Canadians and terrible timing for Americans since Monday is a public holiday... the upcoming buying frenzy will be a totally new experience for us reamed-out beaners.

Investors see the rejection of the new charter as giving a boost to local markets. While LarrainVial says the peso could strengthen beyond 850 per dollar and the IPSA stock exchange could top 6,300 if the document is voted down, local fixed-income analysts surveyed by Bloomberg see opportunities in lower rated corporate debt or long-dated sovereigns.

Dear_Gabby Boric,_Michele Bachelet_has left_the UN_and is_coming back to_Chile
to be your new mommy. Her 4-year job as Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) expired last night as scheduled but not until after she pulled a funny crazy stunt before the hands of the clock struck 12 midnight.
Shall I tell you what she did? Oh what the hell... lemme' tell ya'.
Well, it seems Michele hiked her dress up, jumped on top of her UN office desk, pulled down her red burlap panties and laid a huge stinky turd right in the middle of her desk for the next UN High Commissioner taking over her job after she blew the whistle on Xi Jinping and China's unfair treatment of the Uyghurs prompting the Chinese to call Michele a "hired thug" for the West this morning https://www.telesurenglish.net/news/China-Rejects-UN-Human-Rights-Report-on-Xinjiang-20220901-0006.html in Havana's commie rag teleSUR, see paragraph 5.
Dear Dear Gabby, if you do let Michele become your new mommy... the repercussions of that move are going to be dire the next time you meet with Xi Jinping. You might want to think twice now about letting Michele into your Palace inner sanctum of lesbians/bull-dykes/butches to help guide your presidency.

Are_you a_masochistic lithium_player in_need of_having your_anal canal
diameter enlarged 2 or 3 times for your next colonoscopy exam? Well, you're in luck... CORFO is now taking applications for the 4th Annual CORFO Lithium Beauty Pageant https://www.portalminero.com/wp/corfo-abre-convocatoria-para-avanzar-en-la-cadena-de-valor-del-litio/ and you can sign up immediately. Of course you may have to wait one year until August 31, 2023 to find out if you will win the anal canal roto-rooting, but what the hell... this is Chile, what's another year sitting on your bum twiddling your thumbs doing nothing. Everybody at CORFO is basically sitting around doing nothing so why shouldn't you also?

Rough translation to English
Dear Big Jorge, your predecessor Diego was clearly a copper guy... I only heard him say the word lithium 112 times in public during his entire last term as president. We junior lithium miners will be looking to see you say the word lithium in public 112 times a week from now on until we are unshackled from this excessive taxing royalty-brutalizing government to actually mine lithium like a normal miner for this country... we hope we can count on you to help us in Santiago.
Best wishes as the new SONAMI President,

Rough translation to English.
Dear Mommy's Boy Gabby Boric, ha ha, you are so funny in your shielded bully pulpit with your lame canned commie jokes. And the truth is... you sussed us out, we miners are never in favor of handing more of our profits over to you free-loading gimme-gimme lazy commies. What we miners do instead is bring thousands of good fair paying jobs to the unemployed masses so they can make a decent living enabling workers to put food on table every month, have money to educate their children and move up to middle class. And judging from the fact Chile is still 500,000 jobs down from pre-pandemic levels https://www.latercera.com/earlyaccess/noticia/creacion-de-puestos-de-trabajo-se-estanca-en-julio-y-restan-mas-de-500-mil-empleos-para-recuperar-nivel-prepandemia/GUMCOYHLAZDWVDWAN2V5IT65AM/
Rough translation to English
I would say that you should be a little more accommodating/respectful of SONAMI and Diego Hernández you little smart aleck mommy's boy because you are going to need all the friends in mining you can muster after the new constitution rewrite is defeated on September 4 especially after you start biting into the IMF juicy apple taking their easy-peezy quicksand loans to pay for your welfare/giveaway government programs to wholesale buy voters' votes. .
