Mr. Speaker, it is a question of volume. If there was a gasification plant, it would use considerable amounts of these pellets, which would take up a great deal of the volume of the production by a plant. Break even for a facility would be 40,000 tons per annum. If there was a gasification plant, it would eat up a great deal of that 40,000 tons and make the project viable. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
