Mill ran over capacity @ 500 tpd during December

[mattbigham]

During December 2021, additional mill throughput campaigns were completed and the mill reached a peak throughput of 22.5 dry metric tonnes (“dmt”) per hour over a sustained period, which is 25% higher than the 18 dmt per hour (equivalent to 400 tonnes per day) design capacity of the mill.

Perhaps there are those who saw the $2.22 open as an oportunity to sell the news.. I think they will regret that soon enough and I also suspect there are some who feel silver will never escape from the grip of the criminals who have become quite blatant in there 'tamping' of the paper silver price.. I see this as desperation on their part as the time when they simply cannot maintain there

"... would that not imply that the production test was successfully completed by 12/31 ?" touareg: The production test requires 400 tpd average for 30 days; 12,000 tons. The whole 4Q production (milling) is only 7,172 tons according to the news release. ... About the share price today, maybe the huge volume today implies news is coming regarding Wheaton agreement which would remove
