Let’s see what the revised ‘optimised’ plan is when published later this month but my guess is with the decline 80m vertical from the upper most stoping level - 12mths may be conservative (they do say less than 12mths..). Still - fair bit of underground development works and ventilation works required as well as infrastructure such as a paste/backfill plant and crusher. Even mobilising a workforce is a lengthy process these days… if you saw the WHC announcement yesterday you get an idea of the NSW mining labour issues… let’s hope Redpath still has those workers handy.
