why the world needs windimurra

An oldish paper produced on behalf of Precious Metals Australia Limited on behalf of the Windimurra Vanadium Deposit, now owned by Atlantic Limited.

Something to note "The Windimurra deposit is only one in the world that is oxidised. This is because it lies in the West Australian archean shield, within the oldest known part of the earth?s surface. Chemically it is the same as ores mined in the Bushveld, Russia and China and those found in Canada and is the same or better grade. But physically it is very different, in that nature has already done a lot of the work, oxidising the ore to a depth of 40 meters. Consequently the ore is soft and cheap to mine, to crush and to grind."
