vanadium content of the coosa project

Actually, we have given consideration to the possibility of a vanadium by-product.

The vanadium-bearing mineral is roscoelite which is a very distinctive emerald green mica and is easy to log in the core samples. At some point we will submit the intervals with roscoelite for 41 element ICP analysis and get an idea of how much is contained.

My guess is that it could add a few dollars per ton in additional revenues. While that might not sound like much, once the rock is milled the roscoelite would be easy to recover in a flotation circuit. At present we envision recovering both graphite and pyrite by flotation so adding another potential product would not add much expense.

Regards,

Alabama Graphite
