They confirm that the standard flotation process works on the sulphide but to capture most of the value you need a smelter at some point. Hadn’t noticed the 58g/t data - hmm.

It looks like they were convinced about hydromet early on and are sticking with it as Plan A given the potential payback. Seems to have merit and isn’t overly challenging. Just frustratingly slow.
