Please note that this story is about junior miners. That means producers, though not on the scale of, say, Freeport or Rio Tinto. These guys, too, can't raise money. Things are so much worse for explorers. But again, innovation (change in direction) is the key to survival in these times, and I think LBSR is ahead of the curve in this regard.

This is precisely why I continue to believe that good things await those with perseverence with LBSR. They are ahead of the curve on use of the latest technology and fundraising efforts (although the NASEBA trips admittedly don't seem to have had any results in this climate). This is a company that has also been willing to listen and adapt to a changing landscape where others might doggedly stick to the same strategy.

I would love to take Mr. Briscoe up on his offer (stated on this forum) to travel out there, sign a NDA, and see a lot more than can be made public. I truly hope I can take that opportunity sometime in the near future. It would be an enjoyable part of a vacation. In the meantime, I can only go on what I see and feel, and that gives me a positive impression of the direction of this company.
