Well yes PEnergy, try not reading them it's not as if you're going to miss any relevant information, we all know there's been placings and the SP is terrible. I think there's possibly a general misunderstanding about the PFS. It's not just an academic exercise, it's about presenting potential partners or buyers with the proof from multiple work streams that the mine can be built and will not underperform. Without the PFS your chances of achieving anything near the NPV in the event of a sale are remote. I've never pretended to be an expert in this field but from my reading the big boys don't want to spend £50m (for example) with uncertainty about hydrology, metallurgy etc, they'd rather pay £100m for a fully de-risked asset. The fact is we're taking all the risk which is why there's such high potential rewards here, I worry that some investors here don't realise that, there is chance that we could all lose our entire investments, I hope we have all considered that. I'm bullish and positive but there's still risk that we won't get over the line. On balance and from someone who keeps their ear to the ground I think we will :)
