Lower Gold Prices could Affect the SGC Start-Up PlanI completely understand that copper and zinc prices have had a slight up-trend recently. The problem that SGC will encounter is that they have based their entire plan to jump start the mine into production by going after the high-grade near surface gold deposits. The company was expecting this to generate cash flow and help them proceed with the next step which is full-scale production on their zinc and copper deposits. This plan may need to be tweaked or altered because of the recent collapse on gold prices. With gold prices down to $1200 per ounce. This start-up plan will not generate the significant cash flow the company had originally expected. Especially when calculating the costs to begin the start up plan. The SGC three-phase start-up mining operation which would initiate production starting with high-grade gold direct shipping ore production from the Debarwa deposit and heap-leaching of near surface gold, followed by supergene copper production, then zinc and copper at a full production rate of 4 million tonnes per year.
