Millan--
Here is a draft Metropolitan mine tour itinerary for Mr. Pruitt. We project five hours including travel from Sydney --leaving at 8:30 and returning by 1:00 pm.
This involves a surface tour only and a brief presentation highlighting the story about a mine in the outskirts of Sydney that coexists with the local community. We think it will be an interesting perspective to show Mr Pruitt.
If Mr Pruitt is interested in an underground visit, it can be accomplished but will add considerable time (3 hours). We are happy to accommodate an underground visit if this is important to Mr Pruitt.
Let me know what you think. Many thanks
