    This is interesting IMO...

    a Magnetite off take with China's Sinometal

    The iron ore processing component of TIVAN is important to BBI, I'd suggest similarly to China's Sinometal noting this is what Chinese technology can do with magnetite resources already :
    https://www.citicpacificmining.com/our-operation/processing/
    "The resulting magnetite concentrate is a premium product that grades approximately 65% Fe."

    And the Chinese have increased demand for higher grade ores :
    Chinese demand for high-grade iron ore hits Fortescue

    Top-Grade Iron Ore May Spike to $100
    https://www.bloomberg.com/news/arti...ade-may-hit-100-as-china-gets-serious-on-smog

    The way this reads is there is a premium for higher grade ores, penalty for lower grade ores, Citic (China) know ways to achieve high grade from a low grade ore so the technology is available, selling low grade ores is already hitting the pockets of lower grade ore producers, TIVAN produces higher grade ores & by the sounds of it also produces two very high grade by-products. Why go for one output when you can get 3 without much more in terms of opex or cost per tonne to process?
