RE: RE: RE: indian 63.5% ore offers @$188-$190/tYes that's the idea; but a great deal depends on how
skilled and dedicated the work force is in the milling
and refining process. A combination of lack luster mill
operators, faked hourly feed assays and final tails; com-
biined with power failers etc , etc down time due to
mechcanical failures, etc, etc, all cuts into the rcovery.
That's why the full potential of a possible 85-90% rate
of recovery is never reached and a high % of valuable ore
ends up in the tailings pond ; (to be re-cycled by future
generation of miners). That's what is happening to the old
gold mine tailings.
As the price value of the end product increase and technology
gets better, the recover rate of any mining operation will
improve and become more profitable.
A lot depends on the work force and how they are choosen
and trained. That's why contractors work out so well. No politics.
Just plain old honest pay for a day's honest work.
I'm okay now Deluca, sorry I got so defensive.
