@jonfrum If I'd invested in FFX , i'd be upset about any delay too, given
that corporate catastrophe
But I don't believe that Abujar is in any way similar to Morilla.
I have a colleague on site right now , who told me that commissioning was going well, and a gold pour was not far away. That was on the 29th.
My colleague has done many other commissioning's of gold plants, and 2 others specifically in Cote D'Ivoire.
I also know and have worked for Matt Wilcox, and have confidence in his ability to bring a mine to production.
So I have faith.
I can't guarantee that the MD's promise will be kept to the letter of the law - a gold pour by 12 midnight, Dec 31st 2022.
But it will happen , soon.
its a symbolic thing more than substance , but I do understand your concern that promises be kept.
For myself, I couldn't care less if it takes another week to pour.
I'm more interested in how long it takes the plant to reach and sustain nameplate , and what the first quarter's production is.
And specifically , what the month of March production and tonnages are, as a guide for the next three quarters
Happy New Year to all , and GLTAH !!!
