RE:RE:RE:RE:Big RocksA simple revenue comparison is revealing.
Karowe gets $650 per carat average.
At 12 cpht that gives us $7800 per hundred tonnes revenue of ore mined.
ie $78 per tonne
The new discovery is 550cpht.
Worst case: They are crappy stones and only get $15 per carat average.
At 550 cpht that yields $8,250
$82.50 per tonne
