They have already "produced" gold from this project, they have invested over 6 million in "producing" a state of the art alluvial mining facility, they have "produced" business plan updates and material events via SEC filings, they have "produced" some recent smart buiness deals to pre-pay royalties and settle litigation while minimizing dilution.....unfortunately they have also "produced" doubt in investors along the way as to their ability to get this project into full production.....it's going to come to head in the very near future, but there is no doubt that they are a "producing" entity compared to other, many other companies (including the majority of junior mining companies).....if they have gone through all this process and effort just to position the project for acquisition then so be it.....with the facility built and fine tuned to maximum efficiency and with the "estimated, potential, probable" resources, either way shareholders will get their well deserved profits.....it's just a matter of time
