Hey Richwaters - Thanks for catching me up!
Great post! The way you presented the information and portrayed the current environment as well as the sentiment of this individual speaks volumes about the patience and long nature of this investment.
One question...was this individual the new mine engineer?
I am very encouraged that it only took a little less than two weeks to get these new cell banks installed. For all the past let downs and delays, supposely vendor related, this seemed to go very smoothly. To understand the Cu percentage problem, install 2 new cell banks, double our soak time and get the mill back operational in < 2 weeks is simply encouraging! This might be too little too late for some of you, but remember this, CPRK has never claimed to be out of the "soft start" mode!
And for all the MD bashing that goes on here, it is encouraging for someone from the inside who knows the daily headaches to support MD. I am not advocating for him if he isn't the right guy, but we will simply never know if someone else could have been a PR maniac and done any better. There simply hasn't been a great deal of good news to report! But, the end of this month and into February, that all changes!!!
Peace,
VVV
