Niobium Outside Of The West Arunta!!, page-19

AI will proliferate propoganda real or fake. for good or evil, I'm certain... it's just too cheap and easy not to. its effectiveness will depend on the intelligence of readers to differentiate reguritated large language model output from reality and truth. of which I fear is a low hurdle for AI to get over. I'm 100% against the oush by governments to control information and remove disinformation, the desire of partisan politicians to stay in power and stack the ' ministry of information' with partisan operatives is clear even now for those following US politics. Of course non-democratic regimes have been doing it for ever...

Got a reminder of censorship on Monday as things have it. Was passed on to me by a mutual friend that if I didnt stoo posting on DRE I was going to get hurt. Improbable threat maybe, but clearly. ot impossible. Can't believe management are so thinned skinned to get so upset by some absurd digs at their quality of disclosure on a two bit chatsite by a two bit crazy punter. They're not magicians for clarity, just naught boys at worst by y judgement which isworth two bits of f all. Plenty of threads are livid at management after the sort of fall DRE had, calling out names woukd make a sailor blush. No, reckon it has to be some belief that the share price would rise if only I left off... which makes both HC and myself much more important tha. any sane person would credit.

Of cousre, it's given me cause for pause and to consider why I'm still posting on DRE and why wouldn't I simply move on given it's worth nothing material to me? General consensus of my friends is to just move on, nothing to gain and a lot to lose. What's my principal worth and what are they precisely? I've written war and peace over the past 18 years on why I post, but if I had to boil it alm down to one principle it woukd be to help retail make money and avoid losses in my iwn small way. All the rest of what I get out of HC stems from that reason for being is the conclusion I came to. Regards DRE, although I'm interested in commentating my early calls on their many oroject outcomes, I still see the 'probability'of share price downside.

Take C3 niobium for example, the grade is too low. the size is too small, and the mineralogy looks horrible (as probability and my posts guessed it would be 18 months ago) even though they haven't released any detail beyind a coioe of images. That shoukd tell you enough in itself. but to reall appreciate the metallurgy hurdles for laterite weathered carbonatites yiu have to understand the mineralogy. CBMMs Araxa Nb mine isn't the giant it is because of size and grade (there are bigger), it's because of the astoundingly rare and fortunate mineralogy it lucked onto. It's Ca-Na pyrochlore weathered insitu to Ba pyrochlore in the laterite zone largely without losing it's grain size or developing growths of impurities. Almost unheard of, it will be interesting to see how WA1 Luni mineralogy and metallurgy pans out...

A perfect example of the typical fine grained, impurity riddled pyrochlore is the 'other' high grade Araxa REE-Nb deposit on the.northern side of the large Araxa carb intrusive complex not owned by CBMM. It's mineralogy is so intergrown with fine impurities theh cannot float a con with more than 25% recovery and eve then a relatively low grade con. Think DREs recent image of weathered pyrochlore with very fine grained goethite intergrowth replacement of the original pyrochlore grain outline. I'll detail Araxa mineralogy later if anyone's interested, drinking at the pool bar in Bali atm (so don't bother coming around to hurt me for a while).

With the greatest respect, GLTAH.
