Das ist der Hintergrund:
themarketherald.com.au/...-drilling-at-santa-ines-2022-04-13/Günstiger finde ich allerdings GME Resources. Die können ja schon einiges nachweisen und wollen bald ein Update der Machbarkeitsstudie geben!
Market cap aktuell: 64,5 Mio USD und das war die letzte PFS:
Base project parameters
Maiden NiWest Ore Reserve estimate of 64.9Mt at 0.91% Ni and 0.06% Co (for 592kt contained nickel and 38kt contained cobalt). Conventional open pit mining at a low projected strip ratio of 2.0:1.
Head grades average 1.05% Ni and 0.07% Co for the first 15 years.
Selected processing route of heap leaching followed by highly efficient Direct Solvent Extraction (DSX) to produce low-cost nickel and cobalt sulphate products.
Initial 27-year operating life at a nameplate processing capacity of 2.4Mtpa. Projected steady-state nickel and cobalt recoveries of 79% and 85% respectively.
Total production of 456kt nickel (in nickel sulphate) and 31.4kt cobalt (in cobalt sulphate). Average annual production of 19.2kt nickel and 1.4kt cobalt over the first 15 years.
Project construction period of 24 months from Final Investment Decision (FID). Forecast commissioning and plant ramp-up phase of approximately 20 months.
Key economic assumptions and outcomes
Life-of-mine metal price estimates of US$8.00/lb nickel (includes US$0.75/lb sulphate premium) and US$25/lb cobalt (zero sulphate premium). A$/US$ assumption of 0.75.
Ungeared post-tax NPV8% of A$791M and internal rate of return (IRR) of 16.2% (equivalent pre-tax values of A$1,390M and 21.2%, respectively). Payback period (pre-tax) of 4.4 years.
Average cash unit operating cost (post royalties and cobalt credits) of US$3.24/lb contained nickel (US$3.00/lb for the first 15 years).
Forecast pre-production capital expenditure of A$966M, representing a globally attractive pre-production capital intensity of sub-US$20 per pound of average annual nickel production.
Projected free cashflow (post all capital expenditure and tax) of A$3,342M.
