I hope not.
You'll let me know.
This is the, yeah, that's right.
Well, this is the, this is the kind of like, what is the incentive structure of the partners and the suppliers?
And like, is it required or not?
I think that the, there's a whole bunch of companies that are working on awesome, like novel process technologies that have not quite gotten over the hump
trying to sell to the big mining companies.
And we want to be the customer that helps accelerate commercial deployment and the partner that helps accelerate commercial deployment.
And one of the big issues that comes up when you're kind of like deploying new processing technologies is that part of the reason why it takes a long time for it to get to the point where it's commercially viable, other than all the headwinds from the industry being conservative and process-driven and all those things, is that they, like humans have actually never operated that fast.
process chemistry at scale before.
And so you have all the, you'll learn a bunch of things at pilot scale, but pilot doesn't really tell you what's happening.
You have to train the people to operate it.
You have to, it's like new environmental things that might come up depending on the chemical that you're using.
Uh,
And that, like, scale jump is actually something that we think that RL will enable with, like, a pretty meaningful, like, pace adjustment where you don't need the humans to kind of, like, fine-tune the process conditions around a new process chemistry because the, you know, plant OS is doing it.
Yeah, I mean, we, you know, when we look at what needs to happen in the next 10 years and, you know, forecasted demand will only materialize if the supply is there.
So we'll see if that forecasted demand materializes.
The metals that actually need to grow the most by like mass flow rate are like the big metals.
Like we need a lot of aluminum.
We need an insane amount of copper.
