@speculator101 - thank you so much for sharing. I'm not sure I followed the calculations in the WGX example, but I absolutely understand the importance, and (to
@Fredbear2 and
@bluethunder's point, how easy it is to manipulate AISC / overly depend on AISC).
I had hoped that the inclusion of a cash / net cash view would help mitigate this. i.e. while the quarterlies are not presenting audited figures, these are more widely recognised / consistent measures. As a reminder, this is what I shared for Mar-21 quarter:

However, this is just a static position - i.e. doesn't consider the change month-on-month, or the longer term trend. Worried that adding another dimension to the cash chart will confuse matters. Perhaps a simple "net cash added this quarter" separate chart would work best.
Note - I haven't really tested this to make sure it is accurate, but initial thoughts?
