my thoughts thus far, page-17

Indeed suchislife, they have done very well to keep the gold still pouring. Its a credit to the crews and the staff that they have kept it together. Especially the supply officer(s).

Here is an example of recent positive spin on the not so positive:

Lots of ore stockpiled ready to be milled (because the mills were down due to power issues...if the mills were both going, you wouldn't have a stockpile)

Operational costs down (because they've stopped exploration drilling...no idea what they're doing for long term planning...blasting blind maybe?)

Gold throughput is up! (because only 5 out of 9 BIOX tanks are currently operational due to draining of tanks to search for the "missing" gold, thus shortcircuiting the process and shaving a few days off the usual residence time)

All this can be found in the monthly and quarterly updates if you look for it. You don't need inside knowledge.

Jonnyboy - no worries, I was always curious what the shareholders made of the official asx releases compared to what we were told/could see firsthand on site. This forum is entertaining :)
