Hotmuck, There are a lot of us that are in need of some education when it comes to mining. That is why we are here and post comments, as we are looking for explanations from some of the more knowledgeable investors. I must say I have learned a lot about mining and investing through participation. Your post today brought to my attention something that is obvious to miners, however I had never considered and that is all of the drilling and examining of cores merely for the purpose of being able to follow the veins accurately. I have come to the realization that a company like SGR that is trying to find, assess, develope and mine gold simultaneously with a relatively new crew is going to be subject to rationing of manpower. There will come a time in the growth of SanGold that all fronts will be fully staffed and us " faithful followers" will see the results we are anticipating.
