RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:GSPWe need to return to the science of selective solution mining. So far, the published SMRI papers detailing the science in 2014 and 2016 have proved to be reliable, but almost universally ignored. They predict and remedy the salting phenonima. They descibe well design requirements.
Instead the old execs and consultants are cherry picking a bunch of old ideas, a pond here, oh, maybe some submerged combustion, a Moab well, lots of salt, and so on, with really no rationale. Oh, and because they found these pieces somewhere, it is obviously proven. (platypus mines). But it won't work.The juniors have been taken in by high rollers charging big fees.
Selective solution mining is not that hard, but we have to do proper design.
