Question to IR in response to IR Rare Earth's announcement:

Reading between the lines in reference to shallow strip mining. It appears that from your Nitron readings noted in the IR release, that there is opportunity start mining in the pockets near and at surface throughout the large expanses of Hay Mountain. Is drilling necessary to facilitate the viability for strip mining and is there other methods that can be used without drilling or trenching to determine viability of the strip mining technique?
