Goldcorp writes off eleonorehttps://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/commodities/video/goldcorp-books-us-3-9-billion-charge~1611671 So Goldcorp writes off Eleonore because the reserves are far less then what they were lead to believe. From 600koz per year and 15 year mine life to 300koz a year and 9 year mine life. Now , me thinks in light of the lower then expected reserves and the fact that they have spent 2 billion dollars building infrastructure , Goldcorp will want to capitalize on as much as they can with what they have already committed to. Eleonore was bought out at the inferred stage and I don't see why they wouldn't low ball Sirios at the same stage.
