Sorry but talking about debt financing a deposit as small and marginal as Ospura defines optimism .
Even the grade although quite OK wasn't exceptional , particularly for that portion which would be underground mined .
People don't lend on that !
The "other means" is the only realistic possibility ...equity raising !

Just for comparasin have a look at Herrons resource .
HRR of course have a much bigger mkt cap but they have done all the raising and are nearing production.
(Above ground) tailings : 11.6 million tonnes at 6.2% Zn eq ....no mining required !
Underground : 7.2 16.0
Well over a million tonnes of Zn (eq) contained .
It's got the size , the grade and quality that Ospura does not but when it raised $240 mill to finance ,$140 mill of that was still equity !

I'm not trying to be nasty ,(some might say I don't need to try ), just to point out what is a realistic possibility and what isn't !

Truck it !!!
Simpler , less risky , less dilutive !
