None of us know this process, or how or why it takes so long. Especially for LBSR. All I can say is your points are many others' concerns. And while a deal is in the works, it would be good if someone knew the standard timeframe of such deals. MLV is shopping Big Chunk and Tombstone. SRK is doing Tombstone. We can wait- this isn't my only stock.
But, for so much touting, I'd like to see some drilling. Most companies are out there reporting what they are drilling. LBSR is either very professional, or just lazy with their PRs. It would be good if we knew that MLV and SRK are actively or passively engaged...but that isn't the company's problem...that's the shareholders' problem.
Bottomline, LBSR has a lot in the ground...and when picking pennies, that and good management are two factors that should never be ignored. Just hope management is looked upon as competent. Last guy put me on ignore. I understand why with my frank comments. But ask yourself, "Are you satisfied here, or as anxious as I am?" Let's not sugar coat this...we want to see LBSR meet near term milestones...and even those seem vague.
That's the company's part.....loyalty is my part. I have no trouble holding my paltry 125000. But to bring the point home. Macros are there, ZTEM showed us promise, oyther properties look d@mn good...what is the hold up here? Other companies are moving forward with pace.
