P.S the permitting for mining at Old Pirate was already a long way down the track before the change of direction, the change of direction would have required us to start again, so I think it did cause delay.

But if one weighs up the benefits of going with Coyote
,the recovery is about 10% better,
the through put can be increased to take up slack,
we have redundancy in a 2nd plant if there is a breakdown,
the 2nd plant can be upgraded from cash flow and without down time,
we drilled to get a good mine plan, so as to not make high grade zones un minable.
