RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:EPIC Stupid, besides the obvious issues with Bonterra is the fact that the 3 deposits (Moroy, Barry amd Gladiator) are all in the highest quartile AISC mine costs per ounce. Yes BTR has good to great grades but it also costs a lot more to mine these narrow veins. It was that way with the Barry open pit and Bachelor Lake veins and I don't see anything new defined by the drill that's going to change that.
As I see it the big long lead time items needed for the mill expansion (ball and sag mills) haven't been ordered yet. Which means the mill expansion is still some time off. If mining does commence it will be at the lower 800 TPD and most likely from Moroy. In which case you can expect old Bachelor Lake type numbers which weren't good.
Some interesting and tough decisions to be made by the new CEO.
