The cyanide facility will reduce the cost per ounce by $1.
The company describes this $1/oz reduction as "critical" in achieving a C1 cost of $15.42/oz.
Production cash costs for the last four quarters (from the quarterly cash flow reports) were
Sept: $24.2
Dec: $28.34
March: $48.33
Jun: 38.21
So at best AYN needs another eight steps as "critical" as the cyanide facility.
