EXPLORATION 2018: $ 10 M - 12 M (gain here but that is OK because see below:
HOLLISTER 2017 RAMP-UP: $ 10 M - $ 11 M
HOLLISTER 2018 RAMP-UP: Not an expense
Company is saving I would say conservatively $ 20 M USD to $ 23 M USD to achieve up to 202,000 oz at high point at same AISC, but with a higher spot price of gold.
