RE: I''''ll buy at 4 , 5, 6 dollars.It is bad, but even at Capital Cost 5B, the numbers don't lie, it is still feasible at these metal prices.
Something bigger behind the scenes is affecting this decision, maybe the Credit Crisis underway, Teck, I don't know but can't see today's engineering teams being off by more than double on Capital costs.
See the 355 page Feasibilty Study, AU at 525, AG at 8, CU at 1.50, payback on capital 2.23B was 4 years. Todays metals 2 years less Cdn $ surge.
4, 5, 6 tomorrow will be awefully attractive on Donlin/ Ambler less Galore.
