A bit suprised at the pfs production numbers considering the current resource, looks like they went for any oversized plant, higher capex lower opex route....i like it. Would have thought peak production of ~250kozpa, but obviously management are confident of expanding resources and raising additional capital (if they are planning to do this......). I like it.
Also didnt make mention of production in gold/eq
Using ANDs assumptions of US$700/oz and US$13/oz gold silver ratio is ~53.8 giving
2011 koz Au/pa 292 koz Aueq/pa 358
2012 koz Au/pa 353 koz Aueq/pa 423
2013 koz Au/pa 350 koz Aueq/pa 404
2014 koz Au/pa 211 koz Aueq/pa 234
2015 koz Au/pa 109 koz Aueq/pa 109
2016 koz Au/pa 48 koz Aueq/pa 48
Gold eq production peaks in second year at ~420 koz based on current plan.
oz/pa/Capex produced also looks ok.
306koz/US281M capex ~ 1.08koz/US$M (actually better than this if you discount 2016/15/14)
