Agree - and BRB driving to its own mining operations would be my overwhelming strategic preference. I have accumulated a sizeable position as a long term hold for that very reason.
As CW has stated in his post, they have clearly set out a profitable starter pit and then into low cost underground as their strategy and the cash allows them to pursue that on their own terms. I also agree with CW in that I think the gold price cycle timing is likely to be quite advantageous to BRB as well.
