I will not argue whether an   interpretation other than mine makes sense, irrational;

 I should have worded it better , like "all the non-zero digits", or "using  9 distinct non-zero digits" , but clearly I had the 999 result in mind.

If anyone solved , like " primes, all using non-zero digits",  ok ,so be it. It just was not my intention.
