"bulk metallurgical scheme they are using to assay the drill samples at the moment is neither fast, efficient or cheap"
Neither Fast - very hard to control the turn around in results when a 3rd party labs is in control.. They can take up to 4-6 weeks which I agree is painful.. however once they bring all that in house it will become days not weeks.
efficient - The is nothing to suggest they need to re-line the entire furnace each and every time? so I will assume they have to replace the lining once a week
Cheap - for starters we are in Brazil (have you seen the recent performance of the Brazilian REAL?? that pretty much answers that question..
Question Esh - regardless of whether or not we eventually wrap a Jorc resource around Ema & TS does that prevent us for mining it and producing hundreds of millions of dollars?
