ah yess.. we could get it.. trouble is where is it? it is pumped into a cedar swamp and may be only three feet thick! I have surmised it could be dug up, washed, the roots of the trees cleaned, etc.. you would need a pit to triple wash the sands of organics, and then float the scheelite. (the effluent from the wash would have to have its own settling pond) Max con is 10%. So you have to acid treat the con, to get max buck. Not a sinecure, but it is there, supported by wartime production records. And you have to build a new pond to take the tails. Cost to get all that going is about 2 million. Redefining where the edges of the tails are, and reassaying would be 250K. But tails at 150 dollars a ton is compelling.
