As quoted in the news article:
The company had so much confidence in its resource that it had progressed the project to a BFS after completing a preliminary economic assessment (PEA) in November 2011.
“We do not want to dilute the company too much to advance the project, that’s why we are this year focusing on offtake,” he said in a telephonic interview.
