They seem to be counting on leaching the low-grade stockpiles to extend the mine life. It seems like a lot of money for a short-term operation. I wonder what they do with the railroad after the mine closes? They are now required to pay for the costs of reclamation at the end of the mine.

=================

I did say in my message "unless there are some other problems with the mine".

Thanks for the additional info Prospekt - I was wrong, not the steal of a deal I originally thought on the surface... I have no problem admitting it when I am wrong.
