RE:Thanks, Yes, but has WAY more upside than Dynacor.
They were on my radar, but I've since put them aside.
Last I checked (so may not be accurate anymore) Dynacor lives off a late mine/restart. I believe they are based on 1 location for now but have hinted at increasing throughput and maybe getting control of other locations. But thier potential seemed rather capped and degrading, they only had upside as they were getting the mill up to full power For the most part they just live on how much they can put through one plant and it's likely that the grade decreases as time goes on at the location. Big miners run their own material as long as it's nicely feisable then they throw it away, then Dynacor just runs the mill while someone else throws the garbage material in it.
Newlox for the most part is getting either lightly worked tailings that only had the chunky easy to get gold removed from small miners using thier limited processes, or they are getting freshly dug out dirt. The idea being, you dig it and just send it to us and not waist your time trying to run it yourself, less labour intensive and more cost efficient for the local miners and as a result it's also cleaner for everyone involved especially ecologically. Also the larger system is more effective at getting the fine gold that the miners may miss in thier own processes.
Similar base ideas but much different outlooks and targets.
Because Dynacor basically had a turn key operation, just having to fix up and upgrade the mill, they have the dividend running that grew as thier throughput increased. If they make the plant bigger they maybe able to grow it more but they will have the capital costs on a decreasing resource base.
Hopefully Newlox gets there eventually when they have enough locations set up to cover unit capital costs and have free cash flow in access, which should be larger as thier units are less capital intensive, the question is how many units have to be running before they have enough cash flow to send back to us... 4-7 units maybe... They say that unit 2 and others going forward should be able to payback themselves in about 2 years, after that they are just cash machines with limited maintainace and worker cost. (If all goes as planned)
