Yes, and the concentrator is not likely something you will un-crate and sit on a table. A fork lift will have to be brought in to unload and sit the machine in place. A mechanic will need to level and lag the unit to the floor. Most likely an electrician will need to come in to run conduit and hard wire the machine. The maintenance tech will usually also run the plumbing during install. The builder may or may not send in an install crew which is how I would place the order, but PCFG may need to furnish the labor for this work, just depends. The builder will also probably send in a field or factory rep to do the intitial start-up and performance testing as well as operator and maintenance training. All this will take time and coordination especailly since the mill is remote and company personnel are not on site full time. Installation and start-up frequently is 2 to 3 weeks after receipt of the equipment; that's normal. So, a PR of a successfull install depends on several things. A turn-key install is obviously the best route. Personally, I am expecting the latter part of the month. Hope it is earlier, but we'll see. GLTA
