Bob, <<<<the turnkey operation is costing GPGI $150,000>> This figure seems low to me>> You make an interesting point, even a small chemical anything would cost much more. It either signifies an earnest money down payment, or the process is extremely simple, which it may be. If simple, the prospects for low cost increase. I suspect that the flow sheet looks something like the following. 1. Leach ore 2. Adjust chemistry, pH, etc. 3. AA assay pregnant liquor to determine type and amounts of PM. 4. Add the precipitation chemicals, maybe one at a time for targeted metal. 5. Filter out the pure metal. 6. Repeat step 4 for other metals. 7. Clean up residual leach, neutralize, etc. 8. Sell pure metals directly to end users, receive checks. 9. Shareholders dance in the street. You may want to add other steps, Thor? <VBG>
