           File No. 333-286715
Dear Lucas Dow:

       We have reviewed your registration statement and have the following
comments.

        Please respond to this letter by amending your registration statement
and providing
the requested information. If you do not believe a comment applies to your
facts and
circumstances or do not believe an amendment is appropriate, please tell us why
in your
response.

       After reviewing any amendment to your registration statement and the
information
you provide in response to this letter, we may have additional comments.

Registration Statement on Form F-4
Risk Factors
Sayona ADS Holders may not be entitled to a jury trial with respect to claims
arising under
the deposit agreement, page 43

1.     We note your response to prior comment 15, including your added
disclosure
       that Sayona believes that a contractual pre-dispute jury trial waiver
provision is
       generally enforceable, including under the laws of the State of New
York, which
       govern the deposit agreement, by a federal or state court in the State
of New York,
       which has nonexclusive jurisdiction over matters arising under the
deposit agreement.
       We further note that Section 7.6 of the Form of Deposit Agreement at
Exhibit 4.1
       does not refer to such jurisdiction as "nonexclusive." Please revise to
clarify
       this inconsistency or advise.

Sayona Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Information
Notes to the Unaudited pro Forma Combined Financial Information
Note 2. Estimated Consideration and Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation, page
188

4.     We note that the purchase price of AUS 197,774 on page 189 subtracts out
the buy-
       out of non-controlling interest in Sayona Quebec of AUS 61,248 and
settlement of
       pre-existing contractual arrangements of AUS 203,733, which then equals
AUS
       (67,247). Please address the following comments:

             Tell us and disclose why the AUS (67,247) subtotal is presented,
what this
           amount is meant to represent, and the purpose of its presentation.

             Describe in detail what the    Settlement of pre-existing
contractual arrangements
           of AUS 203,733 represents and disclose the terms of the settlement.
Also, explain
           why this amount is subtracted from the purchase price then added
back in again
           when calculating the    Net gain from bargain purchase    as it
appears to be a wash.

             Confirm, if true, that the AUS 61,248 buy-out of non-controlling
interests in
           Sayona Quebec represents the buy out of the 25% interest owned by
Piedmont. If
           true, tell us how this this amount was derived and how it relates to
Piedmont   s
           recorded value of USD 70,172 for the 25% interest as of December 31,
2024 .

             Tell us why there is no bargain purchase gain recorded in the pro
forma combined
           statement of operations for the six months ended December 31, 2024.

Comparison of Rights of Sayona Shareholders and Piedmont Stockholders
Forum, page 238

5.     We note your disclosure that, under the Constitution, each member
submits to the
       non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of Queensland, the
Federal Court of
       Australia and the courts which may hear appeals from those courts.
Please revise to
       include attendant risk factor disclosure addressing any increased costs
to bring a
       claim, that such provisions can discourage claims or limit investors
ability to bring a
       claim in a judicial forum that they find favorable, and any questions
concerning
       enforceability. Your disclosure should also state that investors cannot
waive
       compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and
regulations thereunder.

6.     We reviewed the revised disclosures made in response to comment 16. It
appears that
       the following auditors have been engaged and provided you with services
or will be
       engaged to provide services in the future:

             Moore Australia Audit (QLD) Pty Ltd, referred herein as    Moore
(QLD)
             Moore Australia Audit (WA), referred herein as    Moore (WA)
             Ernst & Young LLP, referred herein as    E&Y

       Please address the following comment:

             It appears that Moore (QLD) either resigned, declined to stand for
re-election or
           was dismissed, and that Moore (WA) was engaged as your independent
registered
           public accounting firm for purpose of this proxy
statement/prospectus. Please
           present all disclosures required by Item 14(j) of Form F-4 and Item
16F of Form
           20-F for the removal of Moore (QLD) and engagement of Moore (WA). If
our
           understanding is incorrect, please advise.

             Please tell us whether Moore (QLD) and Moore (WA) are related, and
if so,
           how. We note on page 3 of your initial DRS filing on February 27,
2025 that they
           appear to be separate accounting firms since you disclose that
Moore Australia
           refers to Moore Australia Audit (QLD) Pty Ltd, and, for periods
prior to
           October 1, 2024, also refers to Nexia Brisbane Audit Pty Ltd. For
the avoidance
           of doubt, such term does not refer to Moore Australia Audit (WA).

             The 4th paragraph in this section refers to the audit report of
Moore (QLD) for the
           fiscal years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. However, the audit report
for these
           two fiscal years in the F-4 is from Moore (WA). Explain this
inconsistency to us.

             Tell us whether Moore (QLD) previously audited Sayona   s
financial statements
           for the year(s) ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. Also tell us whether
Moore (QLD)
           is registered with the PCAOB.

             Tell us which audit firm reviewed Sayona   s interim financial
statements for the
           six months ended December 31, 2024.
7.     You state that Sayona   s Board approved the engagement of E&Y on
November 12,
       2024, that your shareholders' appoved the the appoint of E&Y at the
annual meeting
       on November 28, 2024, and that and E&Y was appointed independent auditor
under
       the Australian Corporation Act on December 2, 2024. However, you go on
to state
       that E&Y has not been appointed as the independent public accounting
firm of
       Sayona.

       Please address the following comment:

             Describe the process that Management and/or the Board of
Directions must
           undertake to change auditors in Australia. In addition, explain the
approval
           process required under the Australian Corporations Act and by the
Australian
           Securities and Investments Commission.

             Explain the distinction between Board approval of the engagement
of E&Y,
           shareholder approval of E&Y, appointment of E&Y under the Australian
           Corporation Act, and appointment as the independent public
accounting firm of
           Sayona.

             Discuss the timing of E&Y   s expected appointment and tell us
when you expect
           to be required to present Item 16F of Form 20-F disclosures
regarding change in
           registrants    certifying accountant.

             Tell us whether you have communicated with E&Y subsequent to
November 28,
           2024.
