POG at $2512 and rising At some point, the POG will make every available ounce very profitable to mine .
For example , a portion of the Stoger project is fully permitted for development and the remaining permitting is expected to be completed by 2025.
However, only grade control remains to be done for the fully permitted portion containing about 20,000 ounces .
Given the very rich grade of that portion , POG over $2500 US, and being a stones throw from the mill, it's just a matter of time for them to excavate and direct ship Stoger ore to the mill.
Indeed, the statement in the July CP states quite clearly the option of processing direct shipped ore......
This would also apply to initiating dry dredging of the high grade tailings in Tailing Pond #2 which is just across the road from the Pine Cove mill.....dredge and pump .
One never knows what news will be forth coming once the consolidation is effective , late next week..
