A good piece of ore is as easy to spot on a cold day as it is on a warm day and the chances of of not getting snake bit favor the cool and cold days. I have no idea how big the rattlers get in Utah, but I can tell you that my last California snake was a full 52 inches long. No matter the length though as the babies can kick a full grown man's ASK just as well as an adult.
Now, as for that ore, I've heard tell of a few samples there and about. Millions of tons to be exact. What a waste of good time and money screwing around the way this has all gone down. You'd almost think that there wasn't a sane bone head left in America anymore. Thank you for our ESHC and BOD and hopefully some corrective action acknowledged through the courts of the great State of Utah. Gotta be some good sense thereabouts! Just gotta be.
