2 PHASE MAGNETIC EXPLOIT
Crush and Mill Ores.
Create Bulk Con.
M AG PHASE 1
100% Mass
Targets magnetite
25% Mass extracted
30% - 40% PGE's also removed
25% mass along with upto 40% PGE's moves to the " demagnify circut "
Roast = demagnifies allowing better extraction in flotation
Two end Products
- Higher Iron percentage CON created ( stand alone )
- Multi mineral CON created ( Ni, Cu, Pl, Pt, Au )
MAG PHASE 2
Remaing 75% Mass ( from first phase )
Sees an initial roast
Thus, magnifying the irons ( exploiting magnetism to aide in recovery )
Irons pilled
Other minerals pulled with iron due to - iron bonds - minerals attached to iron
Once irons and attached minerals pulled
Ores are reheated to demagnify
Float and separate irom from other minerals
Mag # 1 Circut Mag # 2 Circut
100% Mass 75% Mass
Crush Crush
Mill Mill
Pull 25% Mag + PGE Roast ( convert to magnetic )
Roast Pull Remaining Irons + other minerals
Float 2 payables Reheat ores to demagnify
Float and create 2 payables
Using the laws of magnetism to assist in extraction..
Exploiting magnetism to aide in removal of other minerals.
( 2018 43 101 report ) stated PGE's clung to magnetite
Roasting to magnify or demagnify ( dependent on iron phase )
Demagifying to aide in flotation / separation
Extraction model above...
Creates an iron vantage ( payable credit - stand alone )
With a multi concentrate stand alone ( Cu, Co, Au, Ni, Pl, Pt )
More Profitable
Iron = $125/tonne
Multi Con - $ ??? tonne
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Based on internet search
9% Nickel + 47% iron fetches
$45/tonne usd
If Nickel is $9 / lb
2200 lbs ( tonne ) x 9% Ni con
198 lbs of nickel concentrate
$45 ( 9% Ni Con ) ~ 198 lbs
= $0.23 cents per pound
= and 47% iron given away
= Bad economics
VERSUS
Bump the iron percentages up
Make Iron a stand alone
Iron payable
$125/tonne
Pl, Pt, Cu, Ni, Co, Au - separate concentrate.
$ Far higher $$$$ value per concentrate tonne
Present PFS Model
Mixing iron and Nickel ( con )
Mixing iron Cu ( con )
= Destroys value - iron given away
Present PFS ( all mineral spot prices inflated )
If current spot prices were used with engineers extraction model
would there be any profit for junior and shareholder ?
No.... Pitful, PFS. Worst i've ever seen.
Here is the PFS Con costs per tonne
Process and G&A costs:
Bulk con – C$17.30/t; Split con = C$17.61/t
Run these PFS numbers with
$45/tonne = 9% Ni with 47% ( iron ) Concentrate
One would go broke trying to achieve 9% grade
0.25% nickel into 9% = 36 tonnes mined ( @ no loss )
Versus
One can achieve 60% iron in less than 6 tonnes mined
Creating a 60% iron payable @ $125/tonne usd.
Wink.
Run the same bulk tonnage (( highlighted above) costs with my extraction version.
Separating ores into a stand alone iron with a second multi concentrate
Fetches far more profits.
