I don't think we should underestimate the value of our permits either. There are lots of great resourse plays that aren't advancing as fast as they might for the lack of permits. We are permitted to mine at a rate of 9,000,000 tons a year and if we can prove up a resourse, call it a start up resourse at South Domes @ 1 gram a ton we could be producing 240,000 oz per year based on an 80 % recovery. If we could prove up a resourse of 1.5 grams per ton that's 360,000 oz per year.
Now I doubt we will get up to 9,000,000 tons per year in the first year or two nor do I think we will build a resourse for the entire life of the mine at 1 or 1.5 grams but we could easily get up to 4,500,000 tons per year at 1 gram and produce 120,000 oz. + and be highly profitable and unless I misunderstood him, Mr. Panneton seems to think that 1.5 grams is doable.
I think if we start drilling again at Southdomes and we continue to pull more holes like the last 2 the stock should really get going .
