There are no costs to jlp for cobalt production, you guys really need to wake up and learn the actual processes involved.
The entirety of the processing costs at sable is to copper.
They process ****, with CIL a method then refine the concentrate to copper cathode... The refining process to cathode is so hot it super heats the metal and releases the impurities (cobalt) as a gas. As the gas cools it condenses and can be collected as cobalt and sold. The copper cathode is then sold which covers the processing costs (just about).
The earner is in how much of the gas they can actually condense and collect.
