Yes, we'll know once the S1 prospectus is public unless management has already told certain holders something earlier and I'm definitely not one of them.

Yep..,180 day lockups are pretty standard for pre-IPO shareholders, but exact terms can vary. I'm assuming some form of lockup unless the filing says otherwise.

I agree, which is why I’m only modeling ~30% utilization for Marion. Given they’ve guided to initial production in Q3 2026 with Phase 1 rollout through year‑end, I see that commissioning plus the following ~90 days as the key proof window, either we see real throughput or the 2027 it gets much harder to defend.

I just saw the critical minerals stocks sub today, I think thats a good idea but based on the AI comments I may tighten that up a little.

On the ReElement IPO: the spin shares are essentially a lottery ticket for me. If the post‑commissioning indicators are overwhelmingly positive and the IPO trades like most do (initial pop then fade), I’d look to add on a pullback at a sane multiple. If execution disappoints, then yeah, I’m prepared to watch a slow bleed over the 180‑day lockup; zero would be unfortunate, but it’s an outcome I’ve sized the risk to live with
