After re-reading the MRE report Franco something occurred to me regarding those 17 million options remaining out of the money .
A brief Trading Halt prior to releasing the announcement , may have got some attention , but I have a feeling he would rather not make a fuss (for his own reasons) .
There was no new revelations regarding the Metallurgy , no Assays outstanding that were being waited on , no new Geophysics data , no new information what so ever ( I could be wrong) but when the boss was in London 4-5 Months ago , by what he was saying in the CRUX interview the 5 million ton large low grade resource was proven and "Baked in"

By all accounts the MRE was expected months ago and after trying to find something in the report that may have caused the hold up I couldn't find anything and IMO everything in it had already been either previously reported or confirmed verbally in one of his interviews or conferences .
Yet since that interview you could have heard a pin drop while 2.3 million Performance Rights lapsed in silence ..

I wouldn't be surprised if he knows what he is doing , he certainly comes across as confident .
I don't know anything,
