Lengthy post and all IMO but the sequence of events is important.
Spot on penrice1, What next? is the question, not just in respect to the CR but also in respect to the direction of the Company. From early 2016 VAN made it very clear that K2 was going to be brought into production. By the end of the year Gov Approval for the de-watering had been granted, pumping equipment had been mobilised and a timeline suggesting pumping would be completed by mid March 2017. Then in mid March the Company announced the commencement of the de-watering program (is that happening?). At the end of June 2017, Trident and K1 became their focus and by the end of July VAN was calling it their Flagship Trident Deposit. The last quarterly in July 2017 VAN stated they were progressing plans to bring the K2 deposit into production. The focus does appear to have changed from K2 to Trident since earlier this year, not long after the $4.28mill loan facility was established (The three highest financiers are all Top 20 holders). VAN is currently seeking further capital from Shareholders and other 3rd party professionals. This could come from a similar group of investors. Could the loans have been conditional on the funds being directed to Trident? As far as what next? who knows but early production from wherever in Plutonic Dome has to happen and as soon as possible. VAN needs revenue to service it's loans and fund further exploration. Where's DAU in all of this? Negotiating a JV with VAN that doesn't seem to be getting too far. Let's hope that the funding will facilitate early production and revenue for VAN. Cheers, E.

Feb 14^th 2017 K2 Development Plan
Based on the positive outcomes of the upgraded DFS, Vango will now expedite its plans to bring the K2 Deposit into production in the near term, pursuant to its agreement with Dampier. It then plans to utilise the free cash flows generated to expand Resources at the Trident Deposit within the Plutonic Dome Project with a view to developing Trident into a long term gold producing project. At K2, the Company also plans to expand the Resource base, and the potential mine life of the proposed mining operation, by targeted drilling programs designed to delineate additional Resources.
