Test Mining Musings
Thoughts of sugar plums dancing in my head so I ran some random and conservative? numbers for discussion.
This is for entertainment purposes only:
Assumed- test mining for 180 days at 16/hrs- day = 2,880 production hours
Assumed 75 tons/hr- current previously stated capability as of the October corp. Presentation.= 216,000 tons run.
Assumed the meager .3g/ton = 64,800 g and round it up to 65,000 - divide by 30g/oz = 2,166 oz Au
Assumed $1500/oz (ok that one is high but what the heck- it's a nice round number) and I posit the potential that we could have produced and sold near $3.25mm worth of our testing effort to date.
Scaling up from there and first formal quarter of production pending, that'd be a fine sweetener just to kick this baby off. Merry Christmas to all!

So then...and once again...another year has passed. We are still here...I am predicting light snow on Christmas Eve in the DC metro region this year...May happiness, health, and fortune favor all of us this coming year. My personal belief lends me to say Merry Christmas to all. Happy Holidays and best wishes to all.Traveller180
