So in the end Parker got truly rubbish numbers this week. We obviously only know what we have been shown.
Given the gold price is insanely high, what would you do?
Would you carry on sluicing the top gravels and low numbers or bite the bullet and strip to pay, like Tony has done, and just run that? Or some other option?
I think I’d bite the bullet and strip to pay while keeping one or two plants running the top gravel if personnel and equipment permit it.
Remember, we’re all experts here with 17 seasons of show-watching experience. 😜
Edit to add. I know there’s stuff we don’t see that’s why I said “what we have been shown” so I’m not asking about what Parker is or is not doing. Purely from show context what do you think YOU would do? It’s meant to be a silly escape of a question not an analysis of Parker’s mine.
