RE:RE:Silver at $24
Well I asked myself also, how long it would last to produce flotation concentrate from the 400 t of sorter concentrate.
Bayhorse will produce 200 t/d ore from the mine with 20 ounces /t Silver. This are 25 t/h Ore with 500 ounces/h if one shift works for 8 hours.
The sorter produces concentrate with 200 ounces/t. The flotation produces concentrate with 600 ounces/t.
So, if the flotation plant has the aproppriate size and fits to the projected size of the mine it has to process the whole amount of concentrate that is produced from the sorter per hour.
That means the flotation plant processes 2,5 t/h sorter concentrate and produces 0,83 t flotation concentrate with 500 ounces in one hour.
In the 400 t sorter concentrate are 80000 ounces and the flotation is able to process 2,5 t/h sorter concentrate. So it lasts 400/2,5 = 160 h to or 160/8 = 20 days to process the 400 t sorter concentrate.
In my opinion not only the test run but also the processing oft he 400 t piled sorter concentrate has to be acccomplished a long time ago.
Any comments?
