I guess depth and width of deposit are the other factors, but between the 3rd set of results from the hill and VR I’m hoping for a total of 1.5mill oz.
Hopefully that’s VERY conservative! It could hit nearer 2mill from VR and the hill combined.
I was reminded recently that the veins are narrow in the hill and this was offered as an explanation for up and down production figures. VR should have higher grade gold and this will completely change everything, higher grade ore lowers the AISC but also makes it easier to hit or surpass the 2000oz a month from mining less ore in tons.
In fact all production figures to date are, I would think, based on what they know - the hill. Finding a good sized deposit of 12g/t would be a real game changer to the production metrics. Especially if the deposit is close to the surface…
The impact of VR could be massive…
