RE:Optimization Studies
RE:Optimization StudiesThe Kainitite is the prize. Allana has 221 million tons of it. Kainitite is what SOP is produced from. SOP sells for ~$600 - $700 a ton. Do the math. If the PEA is positive, this is a game changer. Happy.

This slide is also of equal importance IMO. Note the wording "

SW3 PILOT WELL/CAVERN STUDY
SW3 Pilot Well/Cavern located in central portion of brine field
Well design optimized using double leach string and hydrocarbon blanket to
better control the leaching stages
SW3 currently at “undercut leaching stage” with sump leaching successful
and Kainitite brine acquired for processing test work
Undercut leaching in Lower Carnallite layer to begin late January, 2015
Completion of Sylvinite leaching process expected by Q2/ 2015
