    @Kangaroo11, it's possible the answer to your question is 'Yes'. I think @Golddigga nailed it with his comment about the importance of having a mine plan that delivers ore to the mill in a timely manner. There were more than a few occasions in the past where BLK found themselves 'mine constrained' for one reason or another. Maybe they've learned valuable lessons about scheduling & will avoid creating the same issues on Stage 1 (only time will tell). It's good that Byrnecut are the U/G mining contractor.
