I guess another consideration
Another thought, although totally subjective:
If the resource went from 1 million ounces, mostly inferred, to 1.3 million ounces, mostly M&I, after FIVE YEARS since the last 43-101, would that be enough to cause as much excitement in the company and analyst community as what we are seeing?
I would guess it probably has to be a more significant step forward than that for there to be this much positivity in the air.
Whatever the new resource does show, my bet is that it is far more likely that it will drive the stock up rather than disappoint investors and cause the stock to drop.
Unless the stock has a big runup just prior to the announcement then you could wind up with a buy the rumor sell the news type situation.
