Thanks for the info on costs. While there is tremendous upside if the gold price does indeed continue to rise, I don't personally think the management can afford to assume this, when the short term finances of the company are vulnerable. It would be brave to risk the company on a short term bet on the gold price, or do you know something about the financial commitment of its majority shareholders? The latest RNS only says that further funding in 2006 can not be assumed. That would certainly be necessary if costs remain at $500/oz and the gold price doesn't pick up again.
