RE: Did Scotia dump to paint the close red?IMO Delazus is correct,
NGG already has enough detailed information about the deposit to be able to initiate mining of the surface /near surface deposits and being vat leaching - the further drilling program is required to fully define the massive resources that are yet to be fully measured. Keep this all in perspective - NGG has already defined more Au in the ground for Imwauna than they ever have for Sinivit and Sinivit is already in production.
I do not believe the CEO is saying hold off until drilling is complete - that would be ridiculous and thoroughly contradictory to industry norms. To me the only negative is that the CEO seems determined to sell before Imwauana ever makes it into production - we will never get the return from selling Imwauana that we would from producing 70,000 Oz per year for decades...
