I don't think we should be surprised by the result - I had been predicting up to a 15% fall in production due to the problems with the contractor and construction of Stage11 and don't expect an improvement in the current quarter either. Developments such as the Gecamines deal and exploration success on their leases will be the only catalyst now to an improved shareprice but I'm sure the Canadian promoters will want some action sooner rather than later because they have purchased a lot of shares over the last nine months and will want to see a return on their money shortly so the pressure will be on BT to deliver.
