This is exactly my analysis as well, but much better stated. Ramaco's REE claims have been a fraud since Day 1 but Atkins is a Grand Master of sucking in politicians and the media. I characterize my following of the Brook Mine scheme for these many years as watching a bank robbery in progress. Great discussion and insight, Tim

In my consulting days as a spreadsheet guru, I had to create financial models like this one quite often. A spreadsheet model has two important bits. One is the parameters table, containing prices, volumes and suchlike. The other bit is the bottom right-hand corner. By playing around with the parameters you can always get the bottom right-hand corner to say whatever you want.
