I don’t have time to read past press releases, but my recollection is that Aeon is planning on going into small scale production in 2019. From memory the planning/designe of the mine/processing plant is already underway. The drill results will be released as they come in as they were in 2017. The bankable feasibility study will be updated parallel with the updated resource figures to save as much time as reasonably possible. AML is in top gear with its pedal to the metal.
In my opinion we will be getting news of offtake agreements and funding a lot sooner than you have suggested.
