<<Ya, like the Capex might be C$60 million not the C$18 million suggested. >>

Nobody suggested C$18... I have always used US$30 ($C44M). All analysts following BAY agree with this estimate plus or minus 10%. I've checked my self this number with a few contacts which say it should be in that range. The crushing circuit will make the difference between +10% or -10%. But given the results to date and the fast kinetics of the materials, it appears it will be US$30M or less. And with these CAPEX, the NPV is $5 with recovery rates of only 60%.

<<And what happens to the shares issued if they have to sell another 25 million shares >>

Do your maths again, Eliz. This will be financed easily through some debt and some equity. The stock is likely to go much closer to $5 when the recovery rates are confirmed, possibly higher if they discover additional reserves. At worst they will issue 5 millions shares or so.
