Daniel, yes, but what is the extraction cost and can it be expanded to a operation large enough to process that value? All that high temperature stuff is neat in the lab, but scales terribly. I know more tanks, it will look like the desert wind farms soon. They need to find a leach process. I bet if they would end the NIH (not invented here) syndrome, they could find a mill/leach process. I don't know for fact, but if desert sand Maxam can do it on 0.05 OPT dirt, what can one do with 7+ OPT?
