That being said, Donovan, this was effectively sort of phase one out of the way getting to this point. What are we looking at in terms of the next phases?

I’ll give you a very simple example that we sometimes use. If you look at Africa, including South Africa, we probably have more than 45% of the world’s ilmenite, which is basically the raw mineral ore that contains titanium dioxide.
