RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Updated Feasibility Study and Gold Price Assumptions

According to the most recent slide presentations on their websites:

MOZ Slide Presentation - July 2022

SBB Slide Presentation - June 2022

Estimated Cost of Initial Mine Build:
MOZ $305M CDN
SBB $610M CDN

Estimated All-In Sustaining Costs (AISC):
MOZ $833/oz USD
SBB $775/oz USD

My guess is both projects will end up over-budget upon completion if inflation continues to be an issue.

SBB's location is an obvious disadvantage - likely one of the main factors as to why its initial cost estimate is twice as much as MOZ as they will have to spend much more on infrastructure and transportation of equipment and materials. However, according to page 4 of SBB's presentation, SBB's M&I+I Resource Estimate and grade is far superior to MOZ's (MOZ is just above and to the left of the intersection of the vertical and horizontal broken lines).

Will be interesting to see how these two projects progress and how their respective share prices perform during the builds.
