Confused
I dont think you understood what I meant

I meant what ore is mined in a given quarter
is to necessarily what is milled
There is a blending process to get the optimum
out of the mill...So best just look at ounces produced.

Also best you forget the Sept report
the roaster was shut down for 7 weeks

Esh was on about Russia regrinding
not many miners use roasters
Australia only has one Gold mine with a roaster
as below.

The Gidji Roaster, the towering landmark which has processed sulphide concentrate from Kalgoorlie-Boulder’s Super Pit for the past 25 years, will be shut down by the end of next year.
Two roasters, which operate at temperatures about 650C, will both be closed “to improve air quality” and be replaced with a large ultra-fine grinding mill. (from last year so now shut down)
It will leave Northern Star Resources’ newly-acquired Kanowna Belle operation as the only WA gold mine with a working roaster.
