overall l its everything we knew already, a dogs breakfast of production in q4 due to rain, and it's taken longer over the year to get to be able to produce at higher levels, well that's behind us. we will now be in a position to increase production.
But! the news thats in the report for me is the update on Portugal; if Regua gets going that's even higher grade ore than that which we can start accessing at la parilla this quarter- so quite possibly big change with that. also the option on the gold mining starting at sao martinho will open doors to revenue, however its done; the report said:
Status of Portuguese Mining and Exploration Licences
Unfortunately, granting of all new licences and extensions has been delayed due to changes that have to be made to Portuguese mining law combined with the challenges Portugal endured in 2020 with the COVID-19 crisis and associated state of emergency. Management is, however, confident that, given the encouraging exploration results, and given that no other company has applied for the permits in these areas, combined with strong support from respective local authorities, these licences will be granted. The Company has received assurances to this effect.
