Usually we're mining ancient streams or riverbeds or whatever they are that moved in the presence of water.

Right.

Platinum doesn't.

It doesn't have the same effect.

It's not found in water in the same way.

It's found in a different ore style.

So like this gets really complicated.

I want to be clear here, guys.

Like I'm really high-level summarizing the geological effects here.

There's seven different types of ore that platinum is found in.

Like this gets really deep.

But as a general rule of thumb,

We don't have any platinum in the United States.

It's one mine, Sobaine Stillwater, which is currently inactive right now because the ore is too deep, but it's not economical to mine.

So can you go find platinum in your backyard at one part per billion?

Absolutely.

Is it economical to mine?

No.

And when we talk about mining materials, we always got to bring in the economics to it, right?

And that's the difference between ore and just a resource.
