RE:Not Orphaned for Very Long

RE:Not Orphaned for Very Long About 6 months ago I asked IR what they were going to do with the conventional ore that was the lifeblood of the original mine and was told that the original concentrator is still in place but is not included in the Kipushi assets acqured by IVN. If they ane to use the concentrator for the other than big zinc ore they will have to toll mill or build a separate processing facility. I am sure there is something going on behind the scenes as there is substantial value in the other than big zinc material. I really do not know the details on mining methodology  but I am sure that they will not leave the high value material behind, but the mining of the high copper ores may be left until the capex is recovered from the initial start up of the big zinc area. We shall see.
