I recall last year that wet product was very difficult and slow to move. I am not a miner but can imagine wet product does not 'flow' like it would when it is dry as the season unfolds. A slower than average loading rate when the product is wet therefore makes sense at the beginning of the cycle. If I was a 'share trader' and not longer term investor I would be very disappointed. Trusting management and waiting patiently for the returns higher volumes should lead to would not sit well with investors looking for a quick profit.
