Just going over a past presentation June 10th 2008. from this presentation it can be seen that the "Scoping Study Completed (subject to JORC)" so here we are nearly 2.5 Months from this presentation and no sign of the scoping study, would it be reasonable to ask the Co "where is it?, or what's the delay",
Hey I'm getting old here, don't want to kick the bucket before production...lol..

PILBARA IRON ORE PROJECT -
DEVELOPMENT OPTIONS
Scoping study completed and pre-feasibility studies underway with Prodetheus
Consultants
The pre-feasibility studies will include accessing the FMG multi-user railway
located 110km north of the prospect and associated multi-user port facilities at
Port Hedland.
The following project development concepts will be examined:
A 2 million tonne per annum direct shipping ore (DSO) operation using contract
mining, crushing and screening, with road haulage of the DSO products to a
railhead on the multi-user FMG railroad for rail freight to Port Hedland for export.
A 5 million tonne per annum direct shipping ore (DSO) operation using contract
mining, crushing and screening, with a purpose built spur rail haulage of the DSO
products to connect with the multi-user FMG railroad for rail freight to Port
Hedland for export.
A 10 million tonne per annum direct shipping ore (DSO) operation using contract
mining, crushing and screening, with a purpose built spur rail haulage of the DSO
products to connect with the multi-user FMG railroad for rail freight to Port
Hedland for export.
Pre-feasibility studies to be accelerated on completion of initial JORC Resources
Discussions underway with Port Hedland Port Authority to reserve handling
facilities at the port
