Only counted 4 trucks! A start by all means but 4 x 30t trucks doing let’s say two round trips will only deiliver 240t/day. Squeeze in a third trip and it grows to 360t. That’s somewhere around the 1500-2500t/week mark; well short of the 10,000t/week needed to just deliver 500,000tpa let alone the nameplate 2mtpa we are heading for.
Great to see them delivering; another milestone (albeit late) but really need a minimum of 15 trucks driving 3 trips/day, 7 days a week to get anywhere close to 10,000t/week.
Anyway, now SGE will be seeing a stockpile grow, maybe they will be more interested in diverting a barge our way! Unfortunately, without more trucks it will take time to big a decent stockpile.
May be a week or two before the first barge at this rate. Sad to see the SP down at 15c again!
SJ, any intel from your friends? Or is it a case of sit back and continue to be patient?
