Sample granulation24 Feb 2021 22:29
Correct me if I am wrong, but I seem to recall PC making it clear that he was aware of the fact that the crushing process would involve a number of grades / sizes as an end product to suit a range of potential customers. If that were the case, then surely it would have made sense to have a range of sizes processed that potential buyers could pick their preference from to move towards a larger sampling.
This is such a fundamental mistake, I can't help but suspect that this may be a smoke screen to buy some time. Either the BOD got this wrong, or the contractor did. I did not see any suggestion in the RNS that the appointed contractor had messed up.
To crush such a large sample too finely for the potential customers need could surely have been avoided by implenting a very basic quality / quantity control process. God knows, the company have had more than enough time to plan this better.
I am genuinly now trying to adopt a more pragmatic understanding of developments, but this really does push the boundaries of that.
