I suppose the nice thing here..is that we're at least tied to gold also. 30000 oz for 2009 is the expectation from Minto?
If gold holds, we'll have numbers as follows for gold alone.
30k x 585USD (885.00 spot today - 300.00 to cs per oz) = 17,550,000 x 1.15 (give the USD 1.15 on the year) nearly a cool 20 million profit on the gold from Minto alone. Then you still have all the remaining silver. Possibilities exist for more gold also.
Starting to get excited about this one. The gold purchase might look really really smart if gold breaks over 1000.00
