Sounds to me like CCB is just following ZEN's lead. What is the difference between qualifing for an offtake and signing over 20 NDAs and sending out samples, maybe nothing. Also collaborating with universities, ZEN has $350,000 in Canadian government support to collaborate with Dr. Conly, an expert in mineralolgy associated with deep eruptions from the mantel. ZEN has also indicated that they have signed NDAs and sent samples to many other universities.

The only difference that I can see is that ZEN has been doing all of these things for the past year or longer. Saying that your samples are qualifying you for an offtake is not an offtake, its just handing out samples.

I may not like the delays with ZEN, but I feel that they have a very professional approach to engaging customers, academic supporters and investigators and developing their market.
