Guess I've gotten a tad cynical after all these years, or maybe the 'other board' has accomplished that for me, and don't get me wrong - I wish LBSR a future - but that 'vision' raised two questions:

- wasn't the possibility there before? to invest in near surface minable projects? I'm not really cheerfull about 'hey, here's little bit of potential sunshine in the midst of this hailstorm' messages in a NR like that.

- and my second point I'll write here but I'll retract right-away. My first reading made me understand that the suggestion came from a funder which made me raise my eyebrows, but upon closer reading whilst writing this I read 'we have been in discussions with a funder' so it could still have been an idea from LBSR's side.

Ah well. Anyway. Here's to hope.

Thanks for reading.

All the best,

LR.
