type
2. To initiate a research program of finding out the possibilities of milling West Coast Wollastonlte in order to get a Fj, type Intcrpace Wollastonite'.
3. To install an adequate mill in Cleveland or Mt. Braddock plants in order to use Interpace or West Coast raw Wollastonite in converting it to F^ type (the cost could be evaluated at around $150,000 return able in around 1 year).
4. Giving higher consideration to Profax 2000 or other similar ideas in which not to use F^ type of Wollastonite.
