It's mining. There are going to be issues starting up. But, yeah, we're going to turn that corner and the people who stayed patient will be rewarded soon enough.
As 8 noted they'll be sending the activated carbon to the refinery directly for stripping and also gold sales. MarMar report notes that they are actively leaching with the activated carbon method as of July 31st (10-11 days now). IR has also confirmed to me that solution has been flowing through the system.
Your estimate of 7-10 days for announcement of gold sales seems right to me. 500oz will be more than $600k in revenue... We'll be back around .10-.15 cents very soon.
