RE: Pretty encouraging
RE: Pretty encouragingWould someone please help me out with some number crunching? Specifically, what kind of grades are going to be enough for an economic deposit? And what is a typical processing cost per tonne?
As far as I can figure, the 0.3 pounds per tonne, which is apparently what the Rössing pit ore is, gives $100/lb $30 a tonne... What sort of processing cost would you expect in an open pit? I read in an article about Uracan (lost the link) that less than $25 is possible, but that's not exactly an attractive margin... any help? Thanks.
