Provisional Valuation of Murchison
Karora ( KRR..$3.90 ) acquired its Higginsville Mine in Murchison and plant from WestGold in late 2019.
It is currently producing 95,000 ounces per year and has 1.3 m ounces in 2P and 2.5 M ounces in M & I.
Its current market cap is $550 million.
That is about $220 per M & I Ounce and about $475 per ounce of 2 P reserves.
In addition, it is valued at about $600 per produced ounce of gold.
Lets assume Murchison begins producing at 30,000 ounces per year which is quite reasonable expectation.
This would give Murchison a valuation of about $180 million cad or about $0.55 per share.
Murchison has about 550,000 ounces of M & I.
That would value Murchison at about $115 million cad or about $0.37 per share.
As previously posted, our Murchison tenements are quite large and offer significant exploration upside on a spatial basis, and ona depth basis, almost certainly beneath the 10-12 open pit mines contained therein.
Anyway, that gives us some perspective as to what we can expect in terms of market cap, once we begin exploration and development programs for Murchison and production resumes at 30,000 ounces per year

My one question - we know Dato is onboard. Do we have the team take Western Australia to the next level?

I have a feeling "Dato" is on the BoD's because of the Mengapur property, which by the last NR, MMY wants to now dispose of.... Maybe the "Letter of Interest" is all about Mengapur. From the last NR " Since 2008 Dato’ Sia Hok Kiang has been the Executive Chairman of Malaco Mining Sdn Bhd, one of the major shareholders of Monument." ........ Richard

I would think that DATO would have sufficient connections to put a mining team in place with minimal delay. The more I think about this and the news release that came out stating that they are moving their focusion to the Western Australia Region. The more it make sense.

I will 2nd this - I am prepared to wait this out for a couple of months as I feel we could be giving away a gold mine. We just need a team to lead us.

The one news release we need right now is that we sold Megapur and we will use all the funds to start production on Murchison.
