    "Revenue calculated with a $2,400 Gold Price. vi. Measured and Indicated material used to calculate Ore Reserve. vii. Reserves calculated to a pre‐Feasibility level. c. Mining and processing parameters: i. Open pit mining blocks were diluted by applying a dilution skin of waste at zero grade. The dilution skin thickness was dependent on weathering and varied between 0.3m and 0.5m. This methodology resulted in an average, global dilution factor of 42% being applied. '

    Still their budget is over $400 below the current POG
    Would be nice to get a mining engineers view point on the dilution skin thickness , also comes into the picture is probably how vertical the ore body is , but even if flat 0.5m seems pretty wide , and goes to show how important it is to have a skilled excavator driver and to keep over break to a minimum , Also be interesting to know if they could reduce blasting needed by doing dozer ripping
