JLA,
<<I would think they want the pilot plant up ASAP with or without J/L>>

Not necessarily. Without using the Johnson Methodology, you certaintly wouldn't want to use attritters. The largest cost component of the J/L process was the cost of operating and using the attritters.

If you didnt think you were going to use the J/L process and were going to use a more conventional methodology, you wouldnt use that pilot plant as it was designed. It would make a conventional process horribly inefficient as it relates to cost. JMO,

Mark

JLA,
I don't think Naxos wants to base reserves or a production on the numbers from untreated ore. The value of those results are that they will set a baseline. Hopefully the J-L process or some variant of it will enhance the yield and that is what they want to test. I believe a part of their research should be directed at finding the optimium version of the process and then do the production assay with that.
Henry
