It seems that you are starting to agree with me. Now only 350,000 ounces. Any idea what the debt is now?

Oh BTW, what is your mining background?

Hi Syncrude,

If the "cash cost per ounce" is $200/oz and the POG is $300/oz, why wouldn't they be able to achieve cash flow of $100/oz? I assume that "cash cost per ounce" includes maintenance and repair costs, but not the cost of building additional facilities. If the mine were to be exhausted in 4 -5 years, I'm assuming they'd just run the equipment "into the ground," i.e. no additional capital investments.

I'm unable to argue about the actual amount of reserves. On their web-site they state "1999 Mineable Reserves - 447,750 ounces Au:"
crystallex.com

Also, here's the "Update on San Gregorio:"

Perhaps charred can tell us what it means in terms of the prospects for added reserves!

Best regards, John.
