I wonder if the PEA can be released before or in conjunction with the other market developments.

One the one hand they did say it was substantially complete, waiting on further flow sheet improvement. On the other, the better proven high tier market supply, the better price support in the economics.

Somewhere between patiently & methodically checking email daily for 'the' company update

I think so, on PEA first, as other developments can be captured as they arise and then in the further feasibility/development studies
