I wouldn't mind betting that...22 Oct 2021 21:11
If the funding RNS came out today with the Quarterly and drilling and we moved up 10% to where we are today from those 15/16p's then I imagine the mood would have been very different on here.
Nothings changed fundamentally, they've taken the foot of the gas at the plant as they're now hitting a higher grade in the mine, so they can hit full year guidance in Q4 and Kick off Q1 with a sub $1k AISC. They can't be seen to do this as it's practically cherry picking (leave a bad year behind and start the new with a bang) so it's the "blame a third party contractor."
Look at the production report. Actual tonnes mined and processed, they've actually mined a lot more than they've processed (the opposite is true for q3 2020) and a with a circa 33% improvement in grade over the last several months also.
