Back in 2005, when Dr. Webb thought he could bring the mine on QUICKLY by doing it underground, he assembled a Power Point Presentation on the plan. This has all changed, as the higher gold prices make an open pit more economical, as it brings in more ounces, even low grade, in the bulk tonnage. Note, even in the tonnage to be removed to get to the gold veins, there is more than 0.6 g/t, and at high gold prices this is a boon for an open pit.

So those not intimate with the issues, page through this and understand that there are many changes in re-submitting the revised plan as open pit. But much of the environmental issues are the same, so they are not starting from scratch, but rather, redoing it with a different context (and a much larger resources, as we are all waiting for).

The new plan, to be released in 2008 I am confident, may even use some of these old slides.
