We recovered a total of about 1,400 ounces. Between 2-300 ounces came from a concession in the Cangalli Formation and the rest from a riverside operation down the Kaka river. In the formation we used dump trucks and dug a few pits. The first year on the Kaka we used trucks to haul to a fixed washplant and the second year a floating washplant without trucks.

Not at the current POG

"if so what new methods/technology out there would you use or try"
I would try to incorporate a Knelson or Falcon concentrator into the floating plant and use a much larger hydraulic excavator. It would not be possible to use this technique to mine the chaco face.
