Actually 6 years, if company selection year 2018 is included.
And here we are after 4 years with no LD DFS completion (to my knowledge), nor an initial open pit mine with the expected 60000tpa refractory concentrate nor the 80000 oz expected gold produced as per future indicated expectations.
So, what are the odds for NS 'expected' build start, completion and ultimately becoming a producing asset?? And what are the odds for the LD DFS completion and the expected 80000oz of gold production - and not forgetting there was talk about antimony too.
Thus 6 years on, no mine(s), no firm funding agreements and very little money. So called valuable assets as yet unable to be realized by AAU into real saleable gold and who knows for how much longer. Talk, talk, talk for many years - but gold production for AAU itself is very elusive.
