Excellent Plough, I have not seen the FS, now you could also revert to the Metallurgical Analysis on amenablity of Leach of the different Ore Types, this will be in the FS, the average Recoveries for all Ore Types will be within the Report also. This one FS sentence does not infer that the entire Ore Body is Sulphides, just that it is present, just trying to help understanding here for the people that do not understand Geology or Metallurgy.
Not all Sulphides are detrimental to Leaching or Recovery through the Process Facilities, (Refractory Sulphides are a different story) obviously they (Sulphides) can be Grind sensitive (Finer Grind Required) if all is correct and within the Process Facility Designs based on the Feasibility Studies and Laboratory Test work, the Recoveries contained within the Budgets for Life of Mine will be averaged over the entire Ore sources available and that will be Mined and Processed during the Mine Life Plans. It appears the FS was based on well derived information or studies. DYOR but this project seems very good to me after all these years and believe me I have worked on and seen some very difficult projects over time, these are normal project ramping problems whic can be overcome in time.
