Hi CM

Are you referring to the Malbec drill results as the announcement "biggie"? Let's hope they are as good as we anticipate.

I'll be likewise interested to see what the average monthly gold production figures from Chariot look like for the December quarter. A full quarter should enable us to get a sense of how prodction is ramping up.

How much is GTM earning clear per share once production hits the anticipated 100,000 oz per annum? The A$595 hedge covers only the first 75,000 oz produced and then drops slightly I believe. Do you have any figures on projected EPS?

A solid rise thus far today. I just hope the SP doesn't follow its recent trajectory and give up all its gains on profit-taking. If the day-traders climb in, that's a likely scenario. IMO, steady, incremental rises are to be preferred.

Happy hunting
