Occam's Razor--->it's not ready for release. Occam's Razor, people. -- Snowden's audit is simply not ready to be released yet.
I want its confirmatory contents as much as the next investor. But I don't want it before it is as close to bulletproof as it can get by clear-headed management (F.C.) and supported by his obviously savvy board of Directors, backed up by top-shelf lawyers.
Thinkers realize whatever is contained in Snowden's Redux is going to be picked apart to the most absurd degree, and not just in chatrooms.
When it is fiduciarially defensible, correct as is humanly possible, and actionable, it will be released. Simple as that.
Then the dissenter chips can fall where they will, b/c the ducks will all be lined up supporting the pros, and disappointing the shorts. The Snowden report will be defensible, just as the Peter George report was and is defensible, regardless of high or low estimates.
The longer it takes, the happier I am that it will be as accurate and defensible as humanly possible by Frank and the BoD!
Just remember...no one ever questions or demands an audit of a LOW RESOURCE report, just the high ones.

bxju, reports by department heads, outside consultants, drillers, refiners, reclamation, permits, etc., are done all the time. But there is an ORDER to things even if it seems cacophonous and disjointed to those outside the mining industry. Said reports are work product until they are not--i.e., considered material change in the eyes of the securities laws by definition.
You did well in bringing forward factual and highlighting some reports ongoing or completed, regardless of which.
This IS a multi-pronged, multi-bagger, multi-million ounce portfolio under the Barkerville banner. It's high time proper per share valuation should be forthcoming.
