Ann: ANSTO Metallurgical Extractions up to 70% of MREOs, page-109

I note from the results that Taruga has engaged Gavin Beer to assist with metallurgy flow sheets.

Found this on him from RareX website where he also works.

Lead Consultant Metallurgist

Mr Gavin Beer has more than 30 years’ experience in technical and operational roles in the mining industry with the last 12 being exclusively within the Rare Earth and Technology Metals sector. Mr Beer is a Chartered Professional and a Member of the Australian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy and is qualified as a Competent Person for both JORC and NI 43-101 reporting with respect to his metallurgical expertise.

Mr Beer has been responsible for the development of flow sheets for 8 rare earth projects globally and is recognised as one of the world’s preeminent metallurgical experts in the rare earth industry.

Mr Beer is the founder and principal of Met-Chem Consulting Pty Ltd, a specialist consultancy focused on rare earths and critical metals processing. Met-Chem has been engaged by more than 20 rare earth companies globally including Hastings Technology Metals Ltd (ASX:HAS), Pensana Metals Ltd (ASXM8) and Mkango Resources Ltd (AIM:MKA).

Mr Beer was previously the General Manager Metallurgy of Peak Resources Limited (ASXEK) and Manager Metallurgy of Arafura Resources Limited (ASX:ARU).

Mr Beer will be responsible for supervising the metallurgical testwork and flowsheet design and optimisation at the Cummins Range Rare Earths Project.

Sounds to me like we couldn't have a better person to assist in trying to come up with an economic flowsheet.

Interesting how no one has really mentioned his involvement.
