AGORACOM NEWS FLASH

Dear Agoracom Family,

I want to thank all of you for your patience with us over the past 48 hours and apologize for what was admittedly a botched launch of our new site.

As you can see, we have reverted back to the previous version of the site while we address multiple forum functionality flaws that inexplicably made their way into the launch.

To this end:

1.We have identified 8 fundamental but easily fixable flaws that will be corrected in the coming week, so that you can continue to use the forums exactly as you've been accustomed to.

2.Additionally we will also be implementing a couple of design improvements to "tighten up" the look and feel of the forums.

Have a great Sunday, especially those of you like me that are celebrating Orthodox Easter ... As well as those of you who are also like me and mourning another Maple Leafs Game 7 exit ... Ugggh!

Sincerely,

George et al

I think you missed my point.

Quality of deposit, size or how you are heating the ore for smelting has got nothing to do with whether piping the ore slurry is economical for chromite.

I remind you that Noront with it's nickel ore is concentrating the ore before it is turned into a slurry for piping. I do not know if that would also be done or possible for chromite ore.

All I know about chromite is from feasibility studies for determination of whether trucking the ore is practical vs railway. Hands down railway is the way to go because of the bulk issue. I think Cliffs was only considering trucking it's ore because the rail option was closed to them. If trucking is not very practical I suspect piping would be also.

For nickel ore, it is not as bulky and that is why Noront considered using a pipe and trucking as an alternative UNTIL rail becames available.

Thanks for the effort GM, Ed.
