"no niobium ore minerals were observed, the mineral titanite was detected in seven of the eight samples. Titanite is a calcium titanium mineral often associated with carbonatites, which are the major source of niobium ores."
"It is possible that the niobium recorded in the eight samples was hosted by very fine grains that
were excluded during the creation of the HMC samples. Alternatively it may be hosted by other
favourable minerals that were observed in the HMCs, such as rutile. Micro XRF scanning is ongoing
to investigate this further"
"Tantalum (Ta) is present in the soils coincident with the Nb anomaly, but values are low and not as
discrete, making any relationship inconclusive."
best is to just fast track AC drilling and we should know what we got down there, imo
