Desmond, i think the best thing for you to do would be to call the company and have a chat with Bill Bloking. Circumstances aren't ideal, per your post, so it's important to find confidence that the person in charge has a clear mind about where they are going.
BB can't do anything to change the specific circumstances of the zircon market but he has got transferrable skills and contacts that can help us take advantage of opportunities that arise.
