J9 is a she. She has an undisclosed agenda in what she posts here as she has a partly-undisclosed association with John Wellborn.
I don't know Rob or John. I can only comment on its face value based on what I see from either of them. And as a SH, there's not much, if any, I see that JW has done which warrants praise. She, J9, is obviously unsettled by this, given the undisclosed agenda/association. So, it does make perfect sense to see why she (and the multi accounts she's created) choose to attack personally rather than actually try to discuss the stock, factually!
Of course, what you say is apt - blending the IO from one mine with another essentially extends the distribution quantities of one of those mines. But how profitable does that new LOM become when we'll now be shipping more lower grade product compared with prior less higher grade?
The costs we'll be incurring as SH's to find that out doesn't seem to be a calculated risk that leans in favour of SH's IMO, especially NOT with John Wellborn supposedly directing terms.
One real-estate agent could have inventory of only 2 homes in Vaucluse whilst another has 10 from the SW suburbs - which is more preferable? The first may make more profit in a much shorter period, allowing them to seek further investment opportunities elsewhere whilst the latter *may result in more profit but it will require a much longer span in time to realise and will obviously then be far more susceptible to the risks of the market over that period.
I'd have thought the ideal solution would've been to build a scenario where you have both options but I guess we didn't pay JW enough with ONLY giving him 10,000,000 shares to try & so so...LoL.
