Mr.GEM, KY couldnt aggree with you more. Sounds like the pre-planning commitee of LBSR has a lock in for justification in the planned expenditure. Actually ky speaking, my thinkin was JB&BOD would put more emphasis on AZ/HM. Face it throwing a million at AK now could acchieve so much less that in AZ. When we do the pitter patter thinkin about the is it here or is it there, they have to have a big handfull of reasons to have the ALASKA drilling program planned at the end of the AK summer season,(would that give JB&BOD) meaning with greater ore found in AZ, they divert the million to purchasing other needed equipment in the go forward for HM. A million would put HM on her feet. OK so time restraints, HM gets great rpts,can ALS get audits back by SEPT (?) no. So the option for JB&BOD to cancel the drilling in AK needs to be a revolving door. Hence the funds would be available for greater expansion of HM. BANK, all of the variables work in our favor,we are no longer boxxed in. We are at the countdown,a nice place to be after all this time.
