Schlemiel. I don't doubt that everything that can be done will be done to try and prevent Covid impacting on Haverion and Telfer and given the geography and travel constraints they stand a better chance than most of ensuring production and exploration activities continue.
To lift a quote from your post:
"It's in our best interests to stay in production, and that will only happen if there are no breakouts of COVID-19 in our industry," WA Chamber of Mining and Energy CEO Paul Everingham said.
There is an IF in there and I would challenge anyone to say with 100% certainty that the IF can be removed from the equation. The point of my post was to raise the possibility that Covid could impact but also should that eventuality come to pass, then investors should not panic if it shifts the timeline.
As for speculation - isn't that the primary function of this BB?
Your post gives context and underlines the determination of the WA Government and mining sector to continue. Thanks for sharing.
