You asked if those PFS engineers were incompetent. If Briggs can show better economics, does that make him a superior engineer? Rather, I believe that Brian is working with a different data, ie. gold price, possibly more than a half million ounces of M&I than was used in the PFS.
I must have missed the NR you're referring to that has an estimated production date earlier than 2014. Could you please point me to it?
If memory serves me correctly, the PFS did not calculate an approx. 200k M&I ounces at Ormsby. The FS will. That, plus a superior pit and mill design are new welcomed events to further the economics of the project.
