Agree, you cover it well. Falconbridge switched about 20 years ago from rail to truck for shipment of nickel concentrate from Stratcona mill to the smelter(about 70-100 km). However, we have to look at all options; in this case road vs rail.

The total distance to Sudbury will be about 800-1000 km or so, you have to ship out 300,000 tonnes per year or so, meaning roughly 1000 tonnes per day. How many trucks do you need and what is the cost. Environmental permits etc.
