As this is an update there is not much detailed information the final release will be in September. The most significant thing I see are the Mill property has been purchased in southern Idaho and the infrastructure task required to facilitate construction of the mine have been fast tracked.

FYI โ Vandium the next bull market?
There seems to be a mounting interest in Vanadium the cause of which seems to be vanadium redox flow batteries. I donโt see storage batteries as yet being an issue here in the states so the push seems to be coming from Europe and China. There are some nice perks for having a storage battery on your alt enery source such as AC when the grid is out, using the battery when there is a surcharge on electricity, and 3 phase electrical.In any case here are a couple of links that will hopefully ahed some light on vanadium;

Note; I haven’t throughly read this but a quick read there is a discrepancy in battery recycling between the author and Morgan Stanley. The author says battery recycling doesn’t exist, Morgan Stanley, and American Manganese $AMYRF say it does. The author may be correct in that it will take sometime for recycling to ramp up and impact the battery market.
