@Oxygen, surely a DFS/DTM and securing of funding whether it happens next week or in 2024 provides the same outcome of a project green lit for production and GGP in position to fund it's share of costs as funding already in position to proceed.
The DFS will help quantify the economics for GGP, the catalysts may have become delayed but to date the development and production plan remain on target. I suspect it means a lower SP than we might have had on production commencing but mid or long term perhaps negligible once we clear all the hurdles for those holding for next few years. Still your money and your choice but just querying your logic, your investment was events based rather than TA etc. so surely if those events are triggered you pull your trigger?
Unless you see the delays as indicative of other potential issues? These delays aren't due to GGP, rather NEM swooping in to acquire NCM along with NCM conducting optimisation studies to feed into planned DFS and most likely now a revised mining plan being considered as more data to hand to understand a complex ore body that will have different zonations being mined using different techniques during it's multi decade lifecycle.
