Very optimistic interpretation- and hopefully correct. Tracy did not have to share that information and must undoubtedly be aware that it would be interpreted very positively and raise the hopes of the faithful. Previous rounds of pronouncements usually involved plans for what the company itself might be planning to do- i.e. surface mining or readying various pieces of equipment- plans that as often as not, unfortunately didn't come to pass. What is different about the last 2 reports is that they involve what others are doing- previously- signing CA's and now doing site visits. Also- it is reportage not of plans- but of something that has actually happened. Other than idle pumping- which I don't believe has been the pattern at LBSR- it does seem possible that this would have only been stated if there were some prospect of meaningful progress- as opposed to simply trying to mollify the masses. I hope this is so.
