And also:
I find myself thinking about how the REE's and the Gold/Copper on the new map can be parceled separately, ideally with the Au/Cu going to the offshore interests.
I'm not at all certain that the Powers That Be won't squabble a bit about another nation gobbling up a huge strategic reserve of domestic REE's. It's convenient that they don't seem to overlap with the center mineralization, as I think this may allow some flexibility in structuring a deal on the claims. Of course the drilling may reveal a different scenario, but for now it looks like a positive. Otherwise it might complicate things a bit between BLM, State Dept, etc, so maybe the pentagon should ramrod congress to put through an appropriations bill and immediately acquire the claim (I want Briscoe to negotiate with the guy who acquires the $900 hammers).
And maybe having an MP presence next door would keep the locals quiet about "turban sprawl" in their nice rural AZ township.

Been traveling recently, saw some places that would make a great new home for me if my LBSR shares were to raise my tax bracket in the future. Got far enough off the beaten path to lose phone/net service for extended periods, when I had to wonder if today was the day we'd see the long rise toward proper valuation beginning. Glad my itinerary brought me back in time for the fireworks. I don't post much here, but I read often. Thanks to those who dig and share here; I hope it pays off big for you soon!
