[posting]43811066[/posting]Nachtrag: "Good point, and I don't actually know the answer to the question of Ucore's extent of ownership and coverage of the deradioactivation aspect of SPE, but I do know that developing the SPE deradioactivation process itself is a very significant achievement.However I must say that I disagree with your point that the process is universally applicable to all "hard rock ree ores." I suspect that a variation of the process used for Bokan will almost always be applicable, but the "variation" may be substantial. Note that any and all of the ores must be beneficiated and chemically cracked to produce a process leach solution, which is the feedstock into the SPE system(s). Ore cracking, which is known in the trade as "metallurgy" is far from an exact "science." In fact several well known large deposits have proved to be intractable to cracking economically. I congratulate Ucore on its singular achievement, but I would much rather not have the problem of deradioactivation than have to devise a chemical processing/mining engineering solution to removing it for further processing to get at the desired elements. Ucore has done what everyone in mining thought would be impossibly expensive and for which no good technology has existed, or at least put into use for this purpose, up until now anyway. Canadian securities' law requires that announcements of grade, tonnage, process, and process efficiency and cost be verified by independent qualified third parties, so Toronto's Bay Street talks about everything but the important stuff when its denizens are selling exploration company shares. I am in America , so I can tell you there is a very good probability that the REE separation/purification game is about to change dramatically. Get a large popcorn and wait for the main feature (for those of you old enough to understand that metaphor) " |
