Good Evening, moneyhawk. Good job on those figures and they are probably quite accurate. Just a few things to take into consideration though..
The plant is likely to be scaled up after about 6 months or so to 10-15tph, so those figures could be multiplied by 3. The price you quoted for Zinc will be quite a bit higher as we will be selling Zinc Sulphate Heptahydrate, which commands a higher premium per tonne than standard zinc cathode. It's also worth noting that you can make 5 tonnes of ZSH by using only one tonne of Zinc.
Also you forgot about the Vanadium! Once we get permission to sell it (possibly early next year) it will increase revenues significantly. I estimated it would add �7m per year just based on the 5tph plant, now imagine a 15tph plant and we are talking revenues of over �20m a year just from the V alone! The sooner this comes online, the sooner we all start to benefit.
