ricee,
Among the huge ongoing requirement for nickel and stainless steel world wide, it is now recognised by the Chinese as having much better health/ hygiene properties particularly in public areas, such as rubbish bins, on and around public doorways and doors, stair balustrading etc. in public areas, toilets, etc, etc. Not to mention the kitchen and laundry sinks in every house and apartment and almost every building being constructed.

The above use (public areas) is relatively new thinking(perhaps as a result bird flu & swine flu and future epidemics)

One other thing for you to think about when you say "HRR's nickel is not of high grade"
Compared to what other resource of the same size in Australia? It cannot be compared!
Others might have some higher grades (so too does Heron) but they don't have the abundance of quality in the ore types.
If you think I am wrong then please tell me.

Cheers.
