Good luck mining narrow veins

[ If ZEN is ultra high purity at 99.9% what is CCBs purity description at 99.9998% superduperultraterrific? ]

No, I'd say it's unproven and in an unknown quantity.

Moderate your answer. What they have is an average purity in a beaker or petri dish. Thats the issue here, nothing else. 99.9% was never high purity and certainly was not ultra high purity.

If ZEN is ultra high purity at 99.9% what is CCBs purity description at 99.9998% superduperultraterrific?


Chief the issue has never been about purity. We have acknowledged the Miller purity. The issue has always been quantity. Miller has the purity but does it have the quantity in the form of a resource that is large enough and accessible enough to mine economically. The fact that CCB is having to focus on marble first and graphite as a secondary product tends to confirm our suspicions that Miller's graphite dispersed throughout solid marble in small veins is not all that plentiful and extracting graphite economically is probably the real issue.

There is a reason why Miller sat idle for over 100 years in southern Quebec near a highway and only an hour's drive from Ottawa. There is a reason why other graphite prospectors/promoters passed on Miller and it's not about your ghost story. There is a reason why CCB was able to pick up the option on the Miller property for only $50K cash. I think other promoters knew exactly what the graphite mining potential of Miller was and they walked away.

Since CCB has morphed into a marble quarry ZEN and CCB are probably not even direct competitors now so maybe it's time for you to leave here?.
