Shoebox, its OK.
Just because the number of ounces is not up to any significant number that you might think that you need to see, does not mean that it is NOT happening. It was just not in time to report on this past quarter.
The number of ounces recorded is what came out of the lower grade ore (for most of the quarter). They are now starting to pull ore from the high grade stuff in the deep part of the SAM, i believe the 98 vein.
This next quarter should be better, as there will be a lot more ore from these high grade deposits going through the mill. Q1 will be the make or break quarter for this company, for a whole bunch of reasons that we have been discussing on this board.
Keep the faith, they will reward all of us this decade :)
