EVG has had time, during recent unavoidable delays, to prepare plans for rapid sustainable growth, and is now able to begin putting them into effect.
Appointing project managers is IMO a key move toward diversified growth, and suggests an ability and willingness to acquire quality staff and delegate to them.
Las Lagunas is both a cash cow and prototype for a strategic niche in refractory ore mining in Latin America. That's been a unifying theme for all the moves thus far.
With underground drilling underway at Azuay, and surface drilling planned for June, we can expect some interesting newsflow.
Given that Brian Johnson hasn't IMO boxed himself in unduly, I envisage that he can pick and choose funding options when the time comes. In particular, I expect that he has the contacts and marketing skills, plus personal motivation as a shareholder, to obtain growth funding using undiscounted placements.
Just my opinions.
