It probably doesn't make a lot of sense to try and ship ore now anyway..  Profit margins would suck..  Last year this time, the spot was over $147..  Today it is $117 or thereabouts..  Throw some tarps over the piles and take a vacation, or start growing legal pot in the rust..  That's probably selling for several million dollars a ton...    For something that looked like I could make a lot of money at, this sure turned into a pile of steaming goat poop. Hope Bingo the dog has a better life than mine right now.. It wouldn't take much..  LOL!
