Just a thought, but I always assumed that 30 tons/shift isn't 8 hours. It's less, because some of that shift needs to be used during start-up & shut down of the mill. If you overlap shifts, you can realize operational economies by avoiding start up & shut down. Say 15 minutes start, 15 minutes stop. That leaves 7 1/2 hours to yield 30 tons, or 4 tons/hour. Run continuously, 24 hours,...ya get 96 tons. Make sense?

Now, a question of my own, since I was just reminded of it by Jeffrey; 85% pure...98% of spot price. I have no problem with 98%, obviously. However, is BC's mill/amalgamation process only 85% efficient? Sounds pretty poor. Is this typical of operations this size?
