“It took a little time arranging the backhoe delivery, but it’s exciting to see the quick progress we are making  in an effort to getting this operation back in action,” says Vaughan.  “We are advancing moving the wash plant and sluice boxes up above the original site to provide us with more room and more capacity.”
