I believe webs you hit the nail right on the head. More than any of the other factors we have identified in the two year delays has been the hugely sluggish copper markets. China and its soft landing depressed cu prices and outlook.

This IMO did more to delay the BFS than TT did. It simply was not the most opportune time for its release. Shady operators, fouled assays, delays, bad studies, poor regulation, and blatant manipulation played into answers and reasonable issues that hid the real concerns with release a year or so ago.
