Management have done a lot. It would be have been far easier to have kept mining shareholders for years on the 'promise' of one day mining and processing the Fossey ore but instead they went ahead and mined and processed it - thats a massive undertaking and a lot of work that takes courage and commitment Nobody would take it on without fully believing in it - and they also invested their own hard earned in it. I've no doubt they believed in the robustness of the project and would be as gutted at the outcome as the rest of us, nobody wants to put that amount of effort in to subsequently fail.

As per Jim's comments - far easier to long-lunch in perth on the back of repeatedly raised capital without ever digging a hole.
