> And those who say it is impossible for ABX or anyone else to "high grade" an open pit/heap leaching gold operation haven't seen their head in a long time...because it is so far up their a&&, it's too hard for them to see anything!!!

Almost guilty. I didn't say it was impossible, but it isn't as easy as doing it in an undeground vein. With the volume of truck loads a large pit runs daily, who has the time to make major changes in the mining plan. The ore grade numbers in the Barrick, Placer, and Newmont reports show no indication that open pit highgrading is being done.

> Sure hope it wasn't any GPM friends of mine that made that dumb statement!<ggg>

Nope, my friends don't speak to me like that, not to mention they have the courtesy to slap
me on the butt so I have time to remove my head so I can hear better ;)
