Nadir, you hit the nail on the head here. When I have spoken with Elmer on numerous occasions about what differentiates Schaft Creek and Galore Creek, it's the economics/capex. I vividly recall the indignant tone of Elmer's voice about those who suggest the economics will be costly similar to Galore. Therein lies the difference guys.
I think the BFS is going to prove that we are way better off than Galore. It's just a short wait now.
Gold luck to all.
