Raptor Technology Group (fka RAPT)

Well, I don't mean to sound concerned because I'm not. There is nothing untoward going on here, They just cut a deal with a privately held company. Thats all. No biggie, just a real world fact. Better to have an unknown entity delivering 30 tons than to have none doing so at all.

I just asked, even thogh it had already been said that it had not been found. I was hoping someone had come across something. I do a certain set of things every time I do DD. I have a systematic approach to things and nosing around web sites is part of the work I typically do.

Working my way thru a web site allows me to chase inapparent connections and thats often very telling. Kind of like a picker going thru an old barn. You never know what you are going to find.

Cheers.

No concerns.

I think RAPT is going to make a far greated impact than even the company founders anticipated because rare earths are not easily found in large enough quantities, but if their process can generate some as standard outcome from tailings that contain them in trace amounts, then it follows that the stranglehold China has on rare earths will be less than it otherwise would be.

This is national strategic necessity, and IMHO, if our policy makers make the mistake of loading new regulations on this infant sub-industry, they will hurt our country and damage our liberties. We need to do something to respond to the stranglehold the contol over rare earths excerts. RAPT's technology may not be able to do much right now, but if encouraged and strategically enabled by intelligent policy decisions, then it may be possible to make a dent in the damage already done.

And if.... if..... if.... if wise policy decisions do get done, then obviously shareholders invested right now will see the value of their risky investment here grow fabulously.

Furthermore, in that regulation of tailings pile handling is probably a comparitively under-addressed regulatory area (in comparison to the regulatory environment impeding pit mining and underground mining today), it follows that the faster RAPT moves in ramping up, the less impact future governmental idiocies will have.

Strike now. Do so with speed. Target this new sub-industry to a huge degree in order to get as much done now as is possible, before the darn regulators get rules fabricated that screw things up.

So, IMHO, for that reason too, RAPT needs to enunciate a firm plan and raise funds to zoom forward ASAP.

And lets not forget that ordinary precious metals are going to make a lot of money for RAPT.

I had latched onto the only instance of a public company with a business plan that openly declared that leveraging above ground tailings piles was its strategy. Well, that publicly traded company is well on its way to success. When I came across RAPT and read all the RAPT documentation, I realized that, whereas the other company has a finite set of tailings piles to work with, RAPT had the potential to make the processing of tailings piles a sub-industry.

RAPT has the pick of the litter: inumerable abandoned mines all over. There have to be enough of them in the US & Canada to not necessitate exporting the technology to the rest of the world for a while.

I think one of two business plans needs to be enunciated by RAPT. The sooner the better. Its one thing for them to mention, in replies to questions put to them by folks like heywoody (or others), but a formal statement of intent is needed. It needs to be addressed via announcement, IMHO, and the sooner the better

They can either build regional processing centers or license and co-locate to mine sites. I think enunciating such business intentions is a mission critical step.

Thats my thinking anyway.

In the mean time, I love the 30 tons of delivered. Excellent.

The need for a formal expansion plan that is not Florida bound does not take value off the table in regards to things like the 30 tons that was just announced. Its excellent and very welcome news.

Well done RAPT. Nice news.
