Hi

I just have a couple of questions for anyone who might know the answers.

These are:
1) What bulk testing did BGF to make sure there process flow sheet is going to work? Did they only do bench scale metallurgical test work or did they process big bulk samples like Bendigo

2) What recoveries are they expecting?

3) Does anyone know how many of the cyanide leach reactors they are going to install to treat the jig and Falcon concentrates?

4) Previously when they tried to mine Ballarat in the '90s (but failed becuase of the ground conditions in the decline) a CIP plant with Mills was installed. So I guess they had enviro licences for a CIP plant and cyanide tailing dam. However can anyone let me know how much of a delay would be incurred if BGF had to reacquire cyanide licenses in case they had to modify their flow sheet to incorporate more cyanide?

5) What kind of financing options would be available to BGF in the event that needed to spend 20-30 mill installing big capcity mills & or flotation & or CIP

Why am I asking this well it based on a couple of things which I see could lead to problems, based on flow sheet in latest qtrly. Firstly BGF are going in without any kind of milling. A cone crusher is the finest grind. So gold less than about 1mm is going to go to tails.

They only have a geko leach reactor to treat cons, in my book that could lead to a serious bottle neck as they don't seem as good as they are cracked-up to be in terms of throughput especially when dealing with coarse gold.

Thanks in advance for your inputs
