Thanks for the replies, timee - DFS i think stands for Detailed Feasibility Study? (im new to mining) SMC it would be great if we could get up on our own but i would imagine a huge cash injection from our friends up north would be a case of win win all around....i suppose we are conducting the "vertical integration" approach to both stay alive, make a few dollars and make ourselves more attractive for a big JV in a year or so.

I feel like a salesman for AVL (im not) but im very quietly excited by our stats. if you had any doubts about vanadium flow redox batteries you should all have a look at the Zhangbei 8MW Hr vanadium flow battery. link to article:

The speed at which the chinese take to new technology and green initiatives leaves the west for dead. IMO they will drive the vanadium demand initially.

PS dont look at the AVL share price until ive purchased my next bag.
