RE:Xmas surprise from Ucore? Maybe, but doubtful.Anything's possibe. For any deal to happen, RSX would have to be b!tchin'.. CDF supposedly 80 tpa. Processed 1.8 ton concentrate which shoul've had about 70 kg Dy. No evidence yet that Ucore's produced even a single kg of anything to spec. Several 100g samples seems rather stingy considering they should have produced many hundreds of times that from that concentrate. So color me still extremely skeptical. Can Ucore do it? Maybe, but so far I've watched them and haven't seen it.
Yea yeah, I know. Ucore has had phenomenal results, but is under DOD muzzle order. And Ucore keeps running the same sample through over and over to get more run time without having to get new concentrate, and so they contaminate the concentrate and process it again - GIVE ME A BREAK. I don;t think Ucore had a requirement for thousands of hours in the CDF, rather. show they can process oxides quickly and cheaply, and get things in shape for a full-scale production plant. And the sooner that was achieved, the better.
