rrman,

I was not in the engineering dept. but I do think we were happy to get 1/2 of one percent. The last few years I worked I saw some seven tenths of 1% and as low as three tenths of 1%. Anything lower was not ore, just rock. To make a profit with this low ore grade they had to run between 90k and 100k tons through the mill, shooting for about an 87% recovery. U.S. CU. doesn't look good.

Good investing all.
