RE:RE:RE:RE:Whabouchi Mine
RE:RE:RE:RE:Whabouchi MineYeah, I am fully aware that that is an obvious "possible" explanation, and I wrote that it is a possible explanation. However, it is not the only possibility, and I merely pointed out the the NR does not make it clear what the case will be. Another possibility is that there are and/or will be other workers besides these 200 new ones who will be sent away for training, and these other workers will be ready to get to work at any time, due to having years of previous experience working in mines. I suppose we should just not give a flying fook, as long as product begins to get shipped on schedule.

What I meant is that if 200 future mine workers are going to be at a training institute until October of 2019, that does not give them much time to get to work and start shipping product in the second half of 2019. Of course, I don't know how many miners there might be besides these 200 that are being sent to school for training, and that is the "mystery" I was referring to. The NR also did not make it clear whether these 200 workers would be working at the same time that they are undergoing training, or whether they would just be living at the training institute for 6 months during their training.
However it is going to work, I am guessing we might not see product moving for almost a year.
