From the attached excerpt, 2094oz produced in Sept qtr. at 95% recovery. There's $3.5m right there.
Sydney reckons they can process 2500tpw. let's run with 2000tpw over 12 weeks or 24000t.
Let's assume grade 'only' 7.9 g/t but i'll run with 95% recoveries.
That means that could produce north of 5790oz. or $9.68m in gross revenue. if the grade is 10g/t gross revenue grows by 25% to $12.1m.
So between the Sep and Dec qtrly revenues, it appears the $9m expenditure looks easily covered.
Moreover, they anointed production costs at $4.5m. on those 5790oz = $777/oz (and lower again if the grade is circa 10 g/t). At gold AUD1672, that's a real sweet margin?!!!
I would have thought development costs would be capitalised over many more ounces than just the qtrly production?
Is there really a need for doom and gloom?
Again, their IR/PR skills leave a massive amount to be desired imo. Could do a better job blindfolded.
