Payback two years
Production:
1,000 tonne per day
320 days a year
= 320,000 tonne a year
Grades:
Palladium 4 g/t
Output:
Palladium 320,000 * 4 / 31.1 * 35% (Sandstorms share) = 14,400 ounces
Current prices:
Palladium $ 675
Ongoing payment:
Palladium $ 100
Revenue stream per year:
Palladium 14,400 * (675 - 100) = $ 8,3 million
Total Sandstorm Metals & Energy $ 8,3 million (payback two years)

I ran the same calculation and got similar numbers. I used 350 operating days and 3 g/t. Anyway, our methodology is correct. CSI will buy back 50% of the SND stream, almost guaranteed. Still, that leaves us with a $5.25 million investment that could earn $4 million / year for over 10 years.
