RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Call me stupid....shadeson,
I am suggesting no such thing, however you are not suggesting, but indicating your reading comprehension skills are very low. You are now on ignore.

For example, when open pit mining high grade at Cluff lake, bus loads of workers had to be bused in 24/7 because even though the excavators and loaders had 8" thick lead glass, each operator could only work for 8 minutes having received the lifetime limit of radiation. If a dyke turns out to be economically feasible at PLS, mining the high grade at the bottom of an open pit, with water seepage is going to be an operating nightmare. I have no doubt that both those factors played heavily into why there has been no interest in FCU and PLS by the major U miners.

Fantastic having high concentrations but in a mining scenario (as opposed to open pit) this becomes problematic. Doesn't matter how good it is people can't die extracting it. Pros and cons to both NXE and FCU.
