email from John Key
email from John KeyI emailed Gryphon Gold on Friday regarding the 15-20% numbers that were unclear to me. I received a response yesterday. Notice the part where he mentions "a couple months behind plan on placement of ore". Those are the kind of things we need to expect from a start-up. I am very happy to know exactly what is going on instead of beeing kept in the dark. Thanks Mr. Key!
Here it is for those who want the clarification...
The 15-20% is in reference to the total gold put onto carbon. The lower than full production number is a function of the production build up and the lower than planned crushing time due to lack of overliner. The 15%-20% has no relationship to recovery in this case. Only the rate we were able to put ore onto the heap leach pad.
We are a couple months behind plan on placement of ore on the heap leach pad but the 2012 schedule looks very good.
Thanks for your inquiry and support."
