    This reading gives me more giggles when down rampers been spreading misinformation about Thorium and why gbb keep saying there are more problems in the sinking Titanic GGG. No wonder why nro & Jefferies2 bought into EPM

    "Ole Christiansen still believes that there are several unanswered questions in the project. For example, he believes that data of significance to the environment is only based on a bulk sample taken from the ore heap that Risø [National Laboratory] laid in the valley floor in 1979-80.
    - It is not "best international" practice and is not accepted by either the Australian JORC ("Joint Ore Reserve Committee") or Canadian National Instruments. For the sample is not representative of the occurrence. The mining model and the environmental impact are distorted. A large part of the soluble minerals are dissolved over the 30-40 years where the heap has been lying and taking a bath in 1200 millimeters of precipitation annually. The sample is also not representative, and it gives, first and foremost, a distortion of the environmentally most difficult problem; the fluorine content.
    - The mining project's production figures for 'fluorspar' (CaF) also contain only a part of the fluorine contained. This is confirmed by Risø's analysis of the fluorine content of the ore at 9600 ppm F. That is 1 percent, most of which is in the easily soluble Villaumite. And 1 percent of 3 million tons is still 30,000 tons F, of which the mine expects to "catch" a fraction. The rest we must therefore assume goes in the aquatic environment. That is a problem, Ole Christiansen explains to Sermitsiaq.

    Ole Christiansen also does not believe that the handling of thorium is properly elucidated:
    - Thorium is only mentioned in passing, and the most important issues with this (and the associated decay products) are only treated cursorily. The ore reserve of 108 million tonnes, which is to be mined over the first 37 years, contains 86,000 tonnes of thorium. According to Risø, [...] most of the thorium will end up in the concentrate. Where does this thorium end up? There are customers for the semi-finished products of rare earths and for the uranium concentrate, but the customers do not want the products to be contaminated with thorium, and according to the mining company, thorium is not interesting either "as it is not a salable product".
    - I am worried that if you uncritically throw yourself into this project, you risk being left with a serious problem in a few years. For what do we do when the dam in 30 years bursts due to the millions of liters of waste including the highly toxic fluoride deposited in the lake? If we look around the world for a moment, then unfortunately there are many examples of bankrupt mining companies leaving deeply polluted areas. Who ends up with the bill? Greenland risks doing this.(Sermitsiaq Feb. 6, 2021 - emphasis added"
