I had a chance to talk with Steve Altman at GATA's conference in Washington.

He sounded generally upbeat; new financing options are being considered, including something "surprising", he was unable to give more details, as the deal is not done.

ECU is considering a first stage mine expansion to 1500 tpd, then later an increase to 5000 tpd, he talked about the economics of both, sounded solid, but I forget the details.
