RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:YTG addresses VGThank you,

Yes the silence was an issue (it was for me),  but I would bet waking up one morning with news that milions of liters of cyanide is now rougue and on the loose would be enough to make you wonder if you woke up in an alter universe with all the nightmares you ever imagined are now reality.

"What's the estimated reserve?  I think it's around 17 billion.  They may end up with another partner, but eventually this gold will be mined." 

That's a mighty big number for a small territory that is struggleing. 

Mining gave me more than I ever it.  EoM  My thoughts right now is zero out the pollution.  If the HLP is to be used again (apparently they are running test on the stability of the HLP (no surprise).

Whatever comes out of this another breach cannot be allowed to happen!  If that takes enough m3 of concrete to build another Hoover Dam then so be it. 

Personally I think judging only by media pictures and inspection reports that there could be better lay down areas and a "new system".

Hey Husky,  I have met John McConnell and knew him well.  It was a long time ago.  We both lived at a mine where our parents worked.  I can tell you that he is more than proud of what he has accomplished and is not the kind of person to willfully dupe anyone.  As I said before it was his silence that bred the suspision.  

I don't own any shares of VG and never have, my time to invest in junior miners has passed.  And I feel for all of the people that are showing a paper loss and have real losses.  However, I believe that this event can be fixed and the mine reopened.  And reopened with more knowledge and better operating techniques.  John McConnell will be doing everything he can to get this accomplished.

What's the estimated reserve?  I think it's around 17 billion.  They may end up with another partner, but eventually this gold will be mined.
