talking points analysis of CGT at Ballarat:
* probably high grade quartz at about 1 oz/tonne (undiluted grade)
* infrastructure nearly ready to go - needs two drives costing about $3m
* sensible management
* mining and processing not cheap - about $220 per tonne
* mining difficulty acceptable for small scale operations
* excellent finances - financially very secure
* 600 ktpa processing plant - as new and state of the art
* production in 9 months, or possibly sooner
* abundant resources in the region
* geologically complex but manageable
* two defined lodes - enough for about two years of mining
* expecting top quality gold-bearing quartz - excellent metallurgy
