Agreed, we need news. Even the recent news, as good as it was, lacked specifics (where have I heard that before?) and was nothing unexpected. We knew they have boatloads of concentrate, because they sent some to a smelter before. Smelting a small amount is not a big deal, though if they do it repeatedly it adds up. But we still have no idea how much there is to smelt, how much was smelted to get the dore, or what "super concentrate" is (is it the stuff they have tons of, or did they put the "concentrate" through another step?). They have a "conditional" permit for the on site smelter complex, but no signs in Bobby Joe's pictures of building construction other than grading an area. The contract with the refiner is straightforward, there are any number of refiners that will give you 95+% of the metal value.

So how much concentrate, what are the grades (in other words, how much gold and silver do they have stockpiled for smelting), how much and how often are they smelting, what is the mill throughput rate, what grades are they processing (weren't they supposed to switch to the pre-assayed ore by now?)? What is the status of the Sinker (permits, rehab), when do they start drilling (or how soon after permitting)? Where are those "regular assays" we were told we would be getting?

As usual, the PRs are more poorly worded tease than hard useful information. We had a couple of slightly better ones (RS, I assume), but the last two reeked of RK.
