EZ, Brisas may have crappy grades but on a large scale it is doable. And I am fully aware of the copper vs gold arguement as far as recovery goes. Todd Bruce in his "letter from the president" layed it all out quite clear economically.
But this all has nothing to do with what I posted. I am talking about the small miners here and thier interests and the (imo) problems associated with them. Whether you think LB is a crappy project doesn't really matter any more than what I think. There are scenarios that could very well exist, and just because we don't like the sound of them from our computer chairs doesn't mean they aren't a possibility.
By the way copper has been raised significantly a few times in the past by Vz as a problem, as in not processing it.
