Hi kogarahboy,
39,000t mined
28,400t processed
10,600t ore ready to process, not to bad having built up some supply inventory while commissioning, @ 650t p/dx 14days=9,100t plus one week off=9,100t/21 day's,
so headway is being made, northern wet season can vary between la Nina-much higher than average rainfall & el-Niño much lower than average rainfall,

A strong El Niño and record warm Indian Ocean continue

Issued on 15 September 2015 | Product Code IDCKGEWW00
El Niño continues to strengthen. Recent oceanic and atmospheric indicators are at levels not seen since the 1997–98 El Niño. Persistently weak or reversed trade winds and a strongly negative Southern Oscillation Index (SOI), in conjunction with the ongoing warming in the tropical Pacific Ocean, indicate the El Niño is unlikely to end before early 2016.
Climate models indicate sea surface temperatures in the central tropical Pacific are likely to rise further over the next few months, coming close to, or possibly exceeding, monthly values observed during the 1997–98 event. All models suggest the event will peak around the end of the year, followed by rapid weakening heading into autumn 2016. It is too early to accurately determine the likely pattern beyond autumn, but a continued El Niño is considered the least likely outcome at this stage.
El Niño persists in the tropical Pacific, and has seen reduced cloud and rainfall to the north of Australia. The Bureau's climate model indicates El Niño is likely to remain through to early 2016. Typically during El Niño, the northern rainfall onset occurs later than normal.


It would seem, unlikely we will be adversely effected this wet season,
non the less after spending in excess of 20 years working the wet in northern Australia(Darwin-gulf Carpentaria), precautions should always be taken,
it would appear ABU management would be well aware there should be a high likely-hood that coyote can continue running through wet season with some pre prepared strategies in place.
