Thank you for all the interesting facts you have posted Whaler. You share alot of information that must take you hrs of your time to research. I also have been wondering about the potential of mining deep ore. If the conductive bodies have the same grades as the discovery what would you speculate the cost of getting it out of the ground. I believe that nickle, and alot of other metals need more value or their above ground inventories will deplete soon with Asia still growing. If they can not mine at a profit the assets will stay in the ground. Metals are needed to build infrastructure, so they will all increase in value.
