You are correct. The April 6/10 news release said they analysis/decision should be complete by the end of May. If the decision is positive, construction in spring/summer 2010. If they are on schedule, we should hear news soon.

Given that the private placement is oversubscribed (they have money), and gold is now $1200/oz, I would hope the economics are clearly positive. At 250 tpd, that would equate to approximately $1.5 million in revenue per month. I would assume costs would be low, since it is a pile of ore sitting on the surface. Just speculating, but maybe $1 million net free cash flow?

I guess the question is how much will it cost to finish the CIL circuit. Probably not too much, since they have stated all the equipment is purchased and on site.
