on the other side of the coin

- FIFO wages would be almost double Geraldton wages, the less staff on site the better;
- cost of constructing additional accommodation and operating/maintaining it;
- 400km of new gas pipeline, plus the cost of pressurising the pipe so that the gas flows;
- Cost of sending reagents out to site

Most of the processing (crushing, magnetic separation etc.) is still occurring on site under the TMT/AVL plans, it is only the chemical process that AVL are proposing to move to Tenindewa. AVL have not year released unless you work for AVL, or a mining engineer with 10+ years experience in feasibility studies in vanadium processing and the Australian mining market you really have no clue.

There is also the potential, due to increased mining activity in the Mid-West, for:

a) a shared rail line to be extended in the future from Tenindewa to the East,
b) To process the vanadium, titanium etc. of other miners where it is a low grade waste product. If the site is in Tenindewa it is centrally located, easy to get access to more water/gas. The markets for both are projected to explode in the next 5-10 years.

If you can't trust AVL to make good decisions it is probably time to sell your shares and say goodbye to AVL.
