IMG (Iamgold):
At all locations (4 countries) :
Measured : 690,697,000 tonnes of ore at 1.0 g / t gold = 22,603,000 ounces of gold @ $ 1300/0z = $ 29,383,000,000
377 million shares for 1.5 billion of market capital
7 different sites in 4 countries mills = 7 mills @ $ 750 million each.

EGX :
On all their projects (1 country) :
606,853,000 tonnes of ore at 0.62 g / t ore (global average) = 8.432 million ounces of gold and 22,930,000 ounces of silver and 1.1 billion pounds of copper .
Gold = $ 10.961 billion ($ 1300/oz )
Ag = $ 458,600,000 ($ 20/oz )
Cu = $ 3.3 billion ($ 3/lbs )
Total = $ 14,719,000,000

215 million share for 19,370,000 of market capital
8 different sites in one place. So , only 1 mill building about $ 1.3 billion coming out gold, silver and copper all in the same process.
IMG = 7 mills at $ 750 million each = $ 5250 billion in mill costs
Total resources : $ 29.383 billion - $ 5,250 billion of mill = $ 24.13 billion in resources.
EGX = 1 mill of 1.3 billions
Total resources : $ 14.719 billion - $ 1.3 billion mill = $ 13.419 billion in resources.
It is clear that the feasibility study will be positive for me.
In my opinion , EGX should be 60 % of the price of IMG in a few years with only one mill .
