Good stuff! I think this part could be a strong signal that the deal is coming together well behind the scenes:

"Notices have been sent to mine staff. Similar notices of recall will be sent to hourly-paid workers in mid-December."

My guess is that they likely wouldn't have sent notices out of mine staff if there were any major (deal breaking) issues they were dealing with at this particular moment in time, with regards to the deal closing. Hopefully it continues to come together smoothly. Our timing is looking good also, with the gold price being US$1,165.

The Russians are freaks for gold right now, lead by the Russian Central Bank itself.

It would be nice also if they were able to release some drill results and some Vulcan Model results over the next few weeks.

The bolded part is what I liked about his post, makes alot of sense...hopefully, it makes dollars as well!
