A couple of possible typo's

Line 20 USARE has exactly the same tonnage 36,225 as Line 17 Brazillian RE Monte Alto ?
Line 15 Illuka has a bigger production rate 55,000 than its Resource 14,490

Also I think Line 20 USARE RoundTop is the Same deposit as Line 77 TMR Sierra Bianco. There is another Company in that area but I believe they are on the hill to the NW. same geology so they won't have much NdPr either.

Yeah there was a mistake in USA RE....so that has been updated. Thanks
Iluka is an interesting one. The NdPr Deposit for Eneabba is correct, but that is for an oxide...and they are producing a concentrate...hence the larger production rate. But it gets scored down alot because of that.

This is a double up...well kind of. Apparently TMR owns 20% of Round Top....and USARE ows the rest.....not sure how to deal with that? What do you think? I'm thinking since USARE is the Lead Operator and Financier...i'll just delete the TMR line in the rankings...?
 
That makes sense, the database is about RE Deposits, if you started listing every Company that is JV'ing you will end up with a highly fractured dataset. On that you can probably change Hastings to Wyloo now, and Peak to Shenghe soon.
 
I'm debating if we publish now with the small mistakes fixed, or wait until we have finished all the other data entries (ie all the zero scores). Those depoists with lots of zero scores will probably remain much the same, becasue they are very early stage, and there is not much data available. And all it will really do, is re-order the 50-160 rankings....

maybe we do it in two steps?

I would certainly like to see a sooner rather than later, recalculation. Most of the deposits with zero's are still in the Exploration stage so it will be 5-10 years before they even think about getting into production. What the Western world needs immediately, is an indication of which deposits that have a chance of coming online in the next 2-3 years, ie the top 30, and what capacity they may have to meet the expected rapid rise in demand.
