Emed are in production now, currently running 24/7 on all lines. Yesterday 9 full wagons left site. Small scale on ramp up currently producing at half tag capacity. Alberto still calls it commissioning but it is commercial production. They will meet steady state 5 mtpa throughput well before the January guidance. It could be as early as November. The trucks are there for all to see and whilst a stockpile of course and fine ore is building on site the concentrate is moved quite quickly once samples are through the lab.
