For those who care to know, I believe all current breccia pipe uranium ore being produced in Northern Arizona is not processed on site, but is shipped to Utah. It may be concentrated on site, but leaching is done elsewhere. I am quite certain JB said that was also his plan had LBSR moved forward to develop NPSP on their own, and/or with partners.

Other companies in the Arizona Strip have moved forward with exporations, development and production in recent years, so there seems little doubt that the NPSP buyer can do the same (i.e, ship the ore).

Here's one example showing their mines/explorations and their processing plant near Blanding, Utah which quite removed from the Grand Canyon.

Some big mouths with an agenda should do a bit more DD before they get caught fabricating arguments that do not meet the facts.
