As and addendum to my last post, in my experience the majority of the Co will be found in solid solution in the pentlandite, the latter the predominant Ni-bearing sulphide. Hence, recovery of Co will be directly linked to the recovery of Ni, which should for the type of mineralization found in DE1, exceed 90%. This should be factored in to any "valuation".
