we don't have enough information to know what is at the mill from the info given, imo
they hauled 30,000 tons of ore/tailings from the mountain to the mill, like 1000, 30 ton dump truck loads and stored it at the mill for winter running.
they have run piles through and did not get results they wanted and re-ran some test batches and super concetrated the ore, to 20 gram/tons au
this is what we have produced dore` out of and sold, stored? the talk of dore` sales have stopped completely, why?
if the mill has been idle some for repair or expansion and we had tons and tons of superconcentrate the smelting would have continued, it may have as inventory values have been in our 10Q filings just no talk of it anywhere
30,000k tons with 4.5 gram/ton au is worth 7 million at 1600$ oz, what it cost you to get dore` is another question but the hauling it down the mountain has already been paid
the fact that we have over 100mm in pile value should be worth some investment dollars, it could finance the mine if some big money would take this risk
