The tonnage debate

posted on Dec 21, 2007 07:07PM

I've seen estimates by some posters here and the other forum that range from 3-5 million tonnes.There have been several optimistic projections proposing a resource in the neighborhood of 10-15 million tonnes although the general concensus before today's NR was 7 m t. I've also seen a well composed estimate of the average grades before today.What is the generally accepted number that has been deemed accurate.TIA
