Agreed. They are, after all, the only ones who can answer them.

I do believe, however, that it will be difficult for them to be particularly forthcoming with the analysis. It is unlikely to benefit their efforts to increase stock valuations for them to have a public discourse on the specific technical challenges they face. From a PR perspective it seems likely that the course their advisers will recommend is to package it as routinely as possible and minimize discussion of any challenges. As a shareholder you may well advocate the same point of view. On a purely selfish level I might also, but I do think it is important to try not to be swept away by premature optimism.

Also, they may view any specific solutions to the problems they face as being valuable as trade secrets and therefore not be inclined to release them. I'm not certain whether that would be valid, but it could be as I do believe they will need to make some, perhaps slight, contribution to the art of gold processing to raise the recovery to industry norms.
