Cash on hand

Cash on hand is  now down  to  $23.3  million  ,  basicaly  half  of what it  was 12 months ago.    Operating costs are pretty well steady  at   $90 million per quarter ,  or  $1   million per day.



So we are now  down to  three weeks  operating cash.  It certainly  wont take  much of an  incident or unforseen  event to  eliminate  this cushion.  Then  what happens ??  Ask the bankers to  refinance the loan??

Im  pretty certain there has been almost  zero  exploration  drilling  over the last  4 months.   The geologists  must be chomping at the bit   to start drilling again ,  and  the reserve restatement   may well provide support for their wishes.
