Well I'm disappoointed

Well I'm disappoointedI got  my pre  March 9th  press release but there was precious little new iinformation that wasnt already in the public domain....  certainly nothing to support the SP, altho POG didnt help either.

THe acknowledgement that dilution has been running 10-12%,  compared to planned 7%   was interesting,  but I would  be the last personn to criticize  those numbers.  What is equally interesting is the planned reduction in  the binders in the paste fill.  Altho this has obvious short term  financial benefits ,  it may cause an increase in dilution within the secondary stopes,    in effect cancelling out short term  benefits 

Management now has  an additional  four months  operational statistics since Q4  results........ surely there has to exist something positive that could have been put out there ,  rather than essential fregurgitation of   the benefits of 3800 tpd ,  and exploration targets.  I cant see March 9th numbers providing ant real surprises,   so what will it take   to get the market interested again??
