Question about milling equipment
Just a theoretical question. Is the mill and its equipment transportable? Can it be used at a new site? For instance would it make sense to expand Gibraltar now with the idea the equipment can be moved to Yellowhead when it ramps up?

I think so jc. They floated the idea jc. They said some of the extra cash would b used at gib. Second guessing is not my game. Hopefully ymi is in production long before gib plays out. I believe the geology at gib indicates much more to b mined UG. Nf

Again, just a theoretical question. Could they double production at Gibraltar thus cutting LOM in half, then move the operation to Yellowhead?

Short answer. No. They have a bottleneck. They can tweek that for a few million. Doubling the output would cost at least a billion. Gib is a 40 year mine at minimum. Don't get greedy is myyyy. Nf
