        Speak to Clough Engineering in Perth, they are the people 
doing the engineering on the job. Just out of interest, where did you 
get the info in PNG reserves? I was in PNG in the mid eighties and 
was told that up in the highlands, just about every rock you turned 
over had gold/oil/gas/copper under it. When I was up there, the 
highlands, it was like a scene out of Apocolypse Now, with the 
number of heavy lift helicopters moving exploration stuff around.

        Regards,
                Andrew
