Madam Chair, I yield myself such time as I might consume. Madam Chair, I thank the gentlewoman from Arizona (Mrs. Kirkpatrick) for acknowledging that. We are going to go back to learning about geology. Once again, we have these breccia pipes, and you can see them on this location on the platform here. Now, let's look at something that naturally occurs in the next picture. What do you think this is? This is an exposed breccia pipe next to an alluvial fan. This is exactly what she was talking about. When water and air get to this, it immerses it into the water and carries it down. This is a concentrated supply of uranium. Wouldn't it be better to mine that area? That is what we have to get after. It is safe; it is effective; and it will show some mitigation. Madam Chair, I yield 5 minutes to the gentleman from Arkansas (Mr. Westerman).
