Just how long DOES it take to build a pilot plant in Tennessee? Seems like it has been years already.

biz.yahoo.com

Altair International owns a proprietary technology for making nanocrystalline materials of unique quality, economically in large quantities. The company is currently developing special nanomaterials with potential applications in fuel cells, hard coatings, catalysts, cosmetics, paints, batteries, semi-conductors and telecommunications. The technology may also be used to make paint pigment at a cost forecast to be substantially lower than commercial technologies employed today. Altair holds mineral leases on a ``world class'' titanium mineral sand deposit in Tennessee and is in the process of constructing a pilot plant at that site. The company's other principle asset is the Altair Centrifugal Jig, an environmentally friendly breakthrough technology for mining, coal treatment and environmental remediation.

oops, guess I'm wrong, it has only been a few months. Just SEEMS longer (and I think they may have sat on the property for a number of years):

CODY, Wyo., June 22 /PRNewswire/ -- Altair International Inc. (Nasdaq: ALTI - news) commenced pilot plant work at its titanium sand deposit facility at Camden, Tennessee. Site clearing and construction of a settling pond began last week. Hubbs Contractors of Camden is the prime contractor.
