This mornings news releaseContract is for 26,000 tonnes. From previous news releases gross profit is US$ 90 to 100/tonne.
At $100/tonne, to make the arithmetic easy, gross profit US$ 2.6 million. This is only 2,000 tonnes/month. If they can move this number up to 10,000 tonnes per month then multiply the number by five to $US 13 million a year. (17 million canadian)
Lots of money for Phil Thomas to continue to work his magic and get up to the 40,000 tonnes per month !!!
