Jantimot: "rockford, this isn't anything to do with ramping up production. It's all about grade."
Jantimot, I both agree with you and disagree with you. No company can successfully ramp up to forecast production at a new mine if the grade is significantly less than predicted and the ore is patchy.
So for myself I include a company getting the forecast grade as one of the many issues during ramp up that needs to be successful.
