Matagami mine closing

Just read in Newspaper this morning that Matagami mine will close in a few months and 200 miners will be out of work.

Matagami is +- 90k from Sleeping Giant mine. Miners were probably driving 45k to Matagamy mine
but could be ready  to travel 90k to reach Sleeping Giant mine. 
That could be a big plus for SG .
Matagami was a zinc mine (maybe mill and trucks and mining equipment could be aquired by 
Abcourt.
  Mr Hinse would already be inquiring into it  if he is  still involved in Abcourt.

I do not understand "my mistake".  Could they stay at SG in trailers during their work week?  Not that far away.

Great beer 'musings'. In the overall, more miners available should help. We've money enough for the time being, with management probably hoping that SG ore flow will come along soon enough to avoid another pp.....I certainly hope so... at these sp prices anyway.

This is the best news received for a few months, this news does not come from the company.   The lack of resources was a big problem for the progression of Abcour   this could be an important element for future results.
