Stoops, just came across this, haven't looked at it yet but maybe worth looking at MDL for some costing/process comparisons?
Balance of the article also worth a read, I find Berry has a good handle on the macros.


"TMR: The last time we talked you mentioned Medallion Resources Ltd. (MDL:TSX.V; MLLOF:OTCQX; MRD:FSE). You said the most important factor there was management. The company has hired some new team members since then. What’s your assessment?

CB: Medallion is not going to be a REE mining operation in the traditional sense. The company plans to process monazite from heavy mineral sands to produce separated REOs. Medallion’s management team has the technical expertise to see this business model through. There are several catalysts here, including reaching agreements on the ideal jurisdiction to build a plant and procuring monazite feed stocks. It’s a totally different take on the REE space—one that could be achieved at low overall costs. I appreciate it, and I’m interested to see it move forward."
