thanks to Lar and fantomous and others for giving an insight and comparisons.

However: lets' all remember: this vanadium deposit as identified so far, does not need to represent economics for a "stand alone" mine, in order for it to be extracted.

(and there are probably other veins present not yet drilled into.)

the Vanadium will be mined in concert with the infrastucture that will be put in place for the extraction of Nickle and chrome ect.

it's a great find becasue it compliments greatly what we already have, giving the overall resource potfolio extensive diversity. (the market loves this in production mode. if one mineral is weak in demend.... another mineral may not be.)

great news today ... it enhances substancially the over-all wealth and confidence going forward towards a world class mining enterprise.

cheers ....danny
