RE:RE:Still trying to work out a fair comparison

RE:RE:Still trying to work out a fair comparisonOops... sorry. I made a mistake. I sed 50 cents as an all in cost per pound fro KK copper but it turns out that that is your mine site cost and the "all in" cost is more like $1.00 to $1.10 or so

I will adjust this on the chart when I get a better picture of the risk discount to apply

My next question is to adjust for political risk of DRC vs USA for expropriation, warfare etc. What is a fair 30 year investment return risk factor?
  • 0%   to 10%
  • 10% to 20%
  • 20% to 30% 
  • 40% to 50% etc
My goal is to adjust for E/V (enterprise value); project pecentage ownership; risk adjustment; all in cost to produce copper; and then add in any other more minor variables (or major.) 

So far, without risk adjustment and looking at long term cash-flow, they seem rather equal.

Cheers,
Notgnu
