Gary,

""That appears to be like mining the old fashioned way. ""

No, this is a modern state of the art underground mine. This is basically the same way that Orex will have to mine their ore.

The mill is basically the same also. However instead of a spiral classifer, Orex will use tanks with a lining where the leaching will take place. Orex will still have to dispose of their mine tailings just like LMMI.

PS The process used by LMMI uses no chemicals so from the cyanide standpoint it is also benign to the environment.
