Very good results out of MEI on the purity of their MREC (less than 2% impurities), which is a huge advantage for pH 4 system vs lower pH. Although IXR say they also get to similar purity from pH 2.

I would be careful intepreting their leach extractions and grades from that testwork, the composite is not representative of the resource as a whole.

Grade of composite from Capao do Mel = 4,439 ppm TREO. Grade of Capao do Mel = 2,692 ppm TREO for 67 mt. So the composite grade is 65% higher than the resource.

And they excluded all samples from going into the composite that leached less than 30%:
So the composite is biased to both higher grades (= higher REE extraction per their met work) and to exclude outliers that don't leach well. How that translates to a pit shell and grade control for their resource is unknown.

I am going to wait for their scoping study (and updated met from RDM) before I compare against MEI head to head, where Ausenco will be putting together the mine plan and actual mined grades.

Another great assessment. Good that the comparison is made with MEI. Means RDM is competing with the best so far. Both should get to the final production stage one thinks. I think to metallurgy results will be out quicker than we think . Not too complicated a process in this case.
