    Can anyone explain how this (80% Tb and Dy extraction, from the scoping study)

    turned into this, from the DFS,

    So effectively 1-49/80=39% downstream losses post leaching here? A result of REE not washed from the clays + losses in impurity removal step?

    Seemingly amazing headline extraction numbers shared by MEI averaging 54% NdPr, 33% DyTb extractions from diagnostic leach tests, but will these also get annihilated once the reality of needing to wash the clays to recover the REE + impurity removal losses kicks in at the scoping study??

    IXR's raw extraction numbers appear excellent head to head against MEI, 80% Dy, 80% Tb vs MEI Capao average 35% Tb 31% Dy.. Investors need to be very careful comparing final recovery numbers in a DFS (IXR) against best-case laboratory diagnostic extraction numbers (MEI)... downstream losses appear to be brutal for REE clays.
