I may be overly optimistic, but if I had lots of money (alas I'm but PoorRich-for now ;-) and didn't know about a technology (ZTEM) that was becoming accepted and proven by an up and coming company (Geotech) and had the chance to learn from the man who wrote the book about porphyry copper deposits (Dr. Gilbert) hosted in the U.S. state with a country's worth of copper, I would fund LBSR's drilling project just to glean the best information from the west's best and compare the actuals to the anticpated. (Sentence run-on intentionally...whew!)

If this "experiment" might also pay for its self 500 fold by partnering with LBSR...

The Chinese have one of the rare cultures who value knowledge as real wealth and have a long term perspective in their actions...

Please correct me or embelish if you'd like, for I also value knowledge and have a "long" term perspective on LBSR!
