Without the PEA,it will be very difficult for companies without NDAs to contemplate a move.

I would say it would be impossible, not difficult. Being outside of the NDA info circle means you know as much as we do - would anyone bid on that? Nope, you have no idea about end users or prices or costs, etc. You can guess like we do and that is fine when you are a retail investor but a large mining company would HAVE to see the whole picture given the secetive and unique nature of this sector.
