Here we go with your 3-6 posts '1 month old dodge account' you won't last long here, believe me.... Spreading FUD - fear uncertainty and doubt - over the bulk underground, because that's essentially the only unknown left that such disingenuous posts can target.
Last year we had months and months of tecnhical FUD with the GreenTool and others - who said Havieron would never be economic... but here we are 12 months later with a gigantic starter deposit, a $50m decline going in, and $50m GGP cash funding to DFS, and a published phase 1 mine PFS to take to the bank ... so NCM can get ore to Telfer ASAP.
You may be able to confuse and scare the un-researched with your manipulation, but you cannot touch Bamps or me.
For the rest of you MrBig is a skilled and devious operator who last night was attempting to exploit an ostensibly clever argument. The posts were subsequently removed this am. For the correct reasons.
What he/she was trying to do last night was apply NCM's conservative, underground stoping phase 1 mine operational costs @ $84/tonne - actually $81/tonne according to GGP using the correct exchange rate to Bulk Underground production.
The first Stoping operation has naturally has lower volumes, due to the inherent volume limitations of the Stoping technique and higher costs - ore transport to surface limitation, requirement for drill and blast / explosives, and extra material handling, and subsequence labour in back pasting costs )
But you cannot apply this to the anticipated Bulk under ground block caving grades of the larger scale deposit where the cost per tonne would be circa $25-27/tonne
This is a totally and fundamentally inappropriate comparison made by BiggL - It's like comparing two completely different company cost structures, AND specifically designed to imply that anything under 1.5g is likely to be 'uneconomic'...
And It's total BS becuase we ALL know that Cadia is economic down to 0.4g/t Au... specifically due the bulk efficiencies of the operational costs.
And very much like comparing and interweaving the cost structure of building Ferraris directly to Ford Fiestas -
IE both make massive profits, BUT in TOTALLY different ways . Obviously You cannot make a profit building Ford fiestas in the way you build a Ferrari though. That would be loss making.
That's the best analogy I can come up with. And that is the tactic of this poster. Always Happy to smash them into touch.
Expect Multiple shorter accounts with a very obvious agenda.s
Regarding bulk underground : The only question is will this be a block cave or a more selective sub level cave...? Anyone with mining nouse can see that.. The grade in those breccia are nothing short of sensational. And a mine in their own right.

Good afternoon rbrand
yes I have watched some of them, he is an entertaining chap.
Have a listen to his albums , some original stuff and a few covers, his live rendition of Rocket Man is a gem.

Hi jet47
I'm following it closely
Bill is boldly going into space, nearly 60 years after Star Trek
Let's hope the Blue Origin Rocket is a good omen
and will enable us to Live long and prosper
@Wasred15
could possibly have been Takingmytime ?

Bump
If it were Adamantium or Vibranium that would be marvel-lous ;-)
Is it worth throwing the kitchen zinc at it ??

Hi Colin
I prefer to follow Mr Como's way of thinking
"Catch a falling star and put it in your pocket
Never let it fade away
Catch a falling star and put it in your pocket
Save it for a rainy day"
Evening All
I think they're gunning for hydro. he does sometimes share a lot useful information
Does anyone remember the confessions of a FUD team whistleblower ? , no not the film ;-) , from the argo chat board
Fear, uncertainty, and doubt , paid de-rampers
ATB
PFS in early November , there should at least be some fireworks to accompany it
Afternoon Hydro
I'm always here, just sitting on my hands and watching the board

Zoros
you have reminded me of a local news article in which a clairvoyant dwarf had escaped from a nearby prison
The headline read "Small medium at large"
(Can you pass my coat while you're there)
Further to Zoros's post:
In 2019 The Byrnecut team at Jundee set a new world record for solo-jumbo monthly development. The team achieved an astonishing 754.3 metres (2,849 feet) in one month, breaking the record set in 2013 at Dugald River in Queensland. The record-breaking team bolted and meshed all 754.3m of development, and there were no safety incidents.
There are plenty of incentives for the Byrnecut team to try and match this amazing feat
Many thanks Paddy
that RBR video is enjoyable to watch, a nice respite from the daily shenanigans of this board
I've been sitting on a pension transfer since Dec 2020 , didn't want to top up (just a feeling) but yesterday morning I decided to take the plunge (another feeling) feeling lucky today , back in June

Hi Bamps (and Bottle)
It was most entertaining and informative, thank you
(although I do keep expecting you both to start a Derek and Clive type conversation)
We're going to need a bigger boat
