Alright At 80% capacity of 450 tons/day And .21 oz/t (6.5g/t) and 84% recovery We're raking in about 120k$/cay... 44 mil/year. Let's get this thing optimized, the recovery up and put through the good ore once getting the best return. A couple weeks behind schedule.  Not a bad NR, not mind blowing either.

ya the old learning curve just like the Dudes on that show \Goldrush Alaska the only difference beeing that the BZA Dudes are supposed to be professionals who have been paying themselves from shareholder money in cash and options like professionals for sooo many years   as to your last statement; i was hoping to "flip" my shares after 6 years and 2 months not 6 years and 4,5,6,7,...

I also much prefer when things are perfect instantaneously. I like to sit on my butt and to make money by producing nothing of any value while the professionals wave their magic wands and live up to the standards of my mythical internet world.

Why would I be upset about the 'dismal'  performance? The market makes little to no sense. You try and hop onto whatever you think will outperform the market or make a significant move. Obviously this hasn't made the significant move we hoped it would on news. It doesn't signify bad performance.  What makes you think I am less than positive on this? That 82c NPV was
