Me too. Good news on RIC below is an email response to my inquiry:

Subject: RIC and Island

Good Morning Jennifer,

I was curious if RIC ever chose to do so would they be able to "easily" add a grinding circuit at Island to in theory double production some time in the future?

I think capacity now is about 650 tons per day?

Thank you,
Tom

Good afternoon Tom,

We have actually begun the process of increasing the rated production capacity at Island Gold.

Currently, we have 2 ball mills with capacities of 150 tonnes and 500 tonnes per day, respectively.

We have ordered a 500 tonne per day ball mill to replace the 150 tonne per day ball mill currently being used.

This will increase our daily rated capacity to 1,000 tonnes per day.

Kind regards,

Jennifer
