RE:RE:Salman: "we will not have any zinc shortages until 2019."Well this confirms that this Salman guy is an idiot. The calculations are actually right, but the numbers must be wrong.
Their max mill throughput is 1700 tpd: https://www.yukonzinc.com/en/operations_index.cfm
Their Zn grade is about 10%: https://miningyukon.com/Documents/Why%20Yukon/Mineral%20Property%20Profiles/Wolverine%20Property.pdf
So, (at 100% recovery, 100% availability... which is ridiculous), their max zinc production per year is:
1700 * 365 * 0.1 = 62,050 t Zn
Worldwide Zn production for 2013 was 13,190,000 t Zn source: https://www.ilzsg.org/static/statistics.aspx?from=1
62,050 / 13,190,000 ~= 0.0047 or .47% of world Zn production.
Not even close to what Salman is saying. I wish these analysts would give sources when they spout out this jibberish. I bet Wolverine had a bunch of con stockpiled then sold it all in a quarter and he used that as their production number
