The main risks associated with the project are
related to:
|
• |
The construction and operation of the mine access
road, which must traverse rugged mountainous terrain. |
• |
A lack of continuity in the workforce due
to the seasonal operation. |
• |
Project economics requiring a higher gold price
than currently exists. |
• |
The tailings facility, which must retain a
water cover on the tailings in perpetuity. |
|
With follow up work, these opportunities could prove beneficial to the project:
|
• |
Exploration to increase the potentially
economic mineralization. |
• |
A revised design for the cirque tailings
facility to reduce its capital cost and its long-term costs after closure. |
