There is no hype with respect to the tonnage required
to make this an economic deposit. We are already at
around 20 mill tons, and 40 is regarded as necessary to
reach that goal (economic). With this orebody, as has
been previously pointed out, the uniform grades and
characteristic of the deposit allow rapid increase in
tonnage with 100 m stepouts (as opposed to the 50 ft
stepouts required for typical gold deposits): so I have
been told, by geologists. The consensus is that this
40 mill tons has already been reached, and that the
question is how much larger.... The pgm's will pay for
the mining, and copper, nickel and cobalt will be "free".

Regards

Dan
