The Chinese are not focused on "re-testing what's in the ground" at this late date...
There is not a question about IF the SRSR rocks have value... or if they have the values that have been reported.
Did you happen to read the PR regarding the extension of the JV?
From the PR:
In order to advance the project during this exclusive period, Nio-Star and the SOE have worked together to collect approximately 900 kgs of rock samples from the adit area of the project's D Zone. These are being shipped to China for metallurgical and process testing. Full results from this testing program are expected to be completed over approximately 3 months.
