a technical question

    OK, as I understand it processing REE ore is tricky for basically 2 reasons:
    1. Every deposit has different mineralogy and
    2. SX separation technology is very tricky.

    The first refers to the cracking and leaching to produce a REE (sulphate) solution.

    Question: Once that's achieved does it really matter which SX plant separates the REE, besides (say) needing more Dy capacity if your solution contains a lot?

    There seems to be an assumption that to process Duncan ore will require a go-to-woe Duncan specific process.
    I'm wondering, for example, if Duncan's SEG solution could be handled by LAMP phase 2 if it has the capacity. Or if the CLD HREE could be processed at the Duncan plant.


    (I nearly posted this in the Lifton thread but there it'll get mixed up with several other issues.)
