RE: Pre-feasibilty study expenditureWhaler,
With regards to your questions I will attempt to answer as follows:
1. Hard to answer whether Rio may have been more sucessful had they been under Erin's shoes but it probably does not matter.
2. I would have to believe our meeting the criteria should help our cause.
3. I am guessing that we lost on Sasa because the winning bidder was well connected.
4. Jarandol deposit is a significant deposit which has been compared with deposits in Turkey in terms of composition.The tonnage potential is ltikely higher considering that further drilling has not been done in the basin between the deposits.
Cheers
