While I have cautioned everyone to be patient, I must admit I can't wait to obtain a better understanding of the logistics and costs in transitioning from Phase 1 to Phase 2.
I expect that Phase 2 will be able to be started as soon as production from Stage 1 has been satisfactorily completed with the biggest risk being whether power will be available to cater for Phase 2.
My queries on logistics are will more crushing capacity be required (or does it just require the plant to be operated for longer hours)? Similarly for milling.and the floatation process. If any of these need to be expanded how readily are they added to the original plant? Does the staged process add to the capital costs because of the inefficiencies of a staged implementation? Has anyone any ideas on what is envisaged in this regard?
