.I think they can update the resource estimate but it might mean as you say a second stage or updating the DFS (not sure if they can/how that's carried out)..========================================
I am guessing depending on the type of operations implied due to increased resources, it can be quite straight forward for ML permitting...
Hopefully the coming DFS will contemplate extra capacity of processing plant, tailing dam and power supply.
In absence of that they could possibly selling extra DSO to Ghana Gov. or for export, or simply extend LOM.

I am perplexed because when the company talks about revised increased production with coming DFS, they use worlds like, evaluating, possible etc. Indeed they also mentioned extending the LOM, hence considering that are basing the DFS on only 5 extra Mt MRE I am not holding my breath for any huge increase in production. I am also perplexed on how say....300k/t production plans would square up with PLL 50/50 agreement. Will they be interested, will they give us more that coming $70 millions? Or keep 50% of 255k/t and the rest is for us? In which case cost apportioning will have to be revised....
I am not trying to rise any doubts on Ewoyaa project, just curious to know a bit more details.....
Again it could be that a potential increase to 50/70 Mt of MRE, would simply translate in longer LOM, hence no need for plan b,c,d ...
