question for management

posted on Oct 29, 09 07:25AM

Good morning,

I am wondering if you could update us on the hydro met process?

Looking back at 9/4/08 is the release.

TORONTO, Sept. 4 /CNW/ - Starfield Resources Inc. (TSX: SRU/OTCBB: SRFDF) today announced successful results from the ongoing hydrometallurgical testing program of its novel, environmentally friendly and energy-efficient process to treat the Company's Ferguson Lake massive sulphide ore. An operational update is also included at the end of this news release.

During batch testing, the iron hydrolysis and acid recovery circuit worked extremely well, producing a high quality hematite and simultaneously recovering a high strength hydrochloric acid. The hematite is of sufficient purity and quality to be used directly in steelmaking, and therefore presents a potential new revenue stream for the Ferguson Lake project.

"We are very impressed with the promising results achieved in the batch testing program," said André Douchane, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We are very pleased that the iron hydrolysis and acid recovery circuit is working very well because it is important to the efficient operation of the entire process circuit."

Have we tested this in the Lab?

What are the results from Hatch?

Also in the release from last September............

Currently, a continuous hydrolysis and acid recovery circuit is being commissioned by Starfield in Montreal, and is expected to be operational by the end of September. Planning for a pilot plant is also underway, targeted for testing to begin in mid-year of 2009 when a bulk sample will be sent from Ferguson Lake.

"We are very pleased to have Hatch Engineering contracted to help with our pilot plant design and testing," said Mr. Douchane. Brian Krysa of the Hatch Group has been appointed to the pilot plant team, bringing his vast experience and the resources of Hatch Engineering. The Hatch Group provides process and detail engineering, technologies, business consulting and project and construction management services to the Mining & Metals, Energy and Infrastructure sectors.

How is the Acid recovery circuit progressing?

Is it operational?

Is the pilot plant planning well underway?

Do you have any Hatch reports on the process to share with us?

Or any hydromet updates?

thank you

Tom Kundrat, shareholder
