TWO very new and very recent Tech Developments "EL
Post# of 237
As we all know our President wants to make our country non-dependent on China or anyone else for rare minerals and has allocated funds to the U.S. ARMY to advance that independence ASAP.
The ARMY is paying for a 10,000 square foot test plant in Colorado to process minerals from the Texas mine TMRC , plant could be up and running by Spring.
The process to be used , if it works as advertised would recover 99.9% of the metals with NO TOXIC waste and be more efficient than the current Chinese process.
POINT: In Time ore processing in the Pebbles area could be done on site without sacrificing any % of the metals like in the current proposed process and not incur the costs of shipping to CANADA. WIN WIN WIN ??? Yes , less cost, more product , more Alaskan JOBS
ALSO new is a ground radar Tech that can penetrate down 40,000 feet. Current primary use of this Tech is in the search for Natural Gas , Oil , and Water. BUT BUT BUT can detect metals TOO. Further testing needs to be done to prove up this Tech but looks promising so far for DMAN
POINT: As most know NAK has 9 more claim sites in Bristol Bay that have yet to have core samples taken and tested. How great would it be for them and us shareholders if a reliable scanning process could be used to tell them "TAKE CORE SAMPLE HERE FROM THIS SPOT" and avoid hit and miss costs.
