RE: Annual Loss = $92MAnnual loss is not he important number, what is important is the Operational loss and that is a little better.
Operational loss is the actual loss on the total process of mining and sale of the Gold / Uranium.
They lost around 46 Mil in operational losses which is still very significant but as Narmac indicated, that can be turned around.
Elzulwini is the BIG problem right now! As much as it has the potential to produce a significant amount of gold, it's startup is costing the company millions it never anticipated having to spend. The true DOG in this picture is Ezulwini, MSW's permitting is what brought the share price down to what it presently is but after some careful scanning of the financials Ezulwini has been hurting th ebalance sheet big time while MSW has been making a profit. Down the road I can see this changing how fast, who knows I sure as Hell-o don't
MSW even with all it's permitting problems is making good profit and it's anticipated, from how I read the report, will be able to still make a good profit while the construction of the tailings dam proceeds. This will only slow down the recovery process just a little less that present.
I feel a lot of these probelms were more a control and management issues than a lack of resource issue.
I reviewed the latest technical data report and it was produced in March of 2010 and even with the decrease in output identified more accurately in this report in comparison to previous report, it does show a signficant upside down the road.. When you ask? Your guess is as good as mine.
The loss of >46 mil I feel, is already priced into the share price, actualy much more than it should I think, but the market will let us know this week....
