How do we try and value Red Setter (RS)
π Majors will pay between$US 50-$150 per ounce of AuEq IN THE GROUND (depending on grade, LOCATION, SYNERGIES and depending on CAPEX costs to get it to production).
πSince RS is located about 10miles from the Telfor facilty (Mill + Flotation + Gravity Circuits) and the ore is similar - then the ore could slot into the existing Telfor mine. (Telfor has capacity as its own reserves have been declining). Telfor has also set a presedent in taking 3rd party ore in recent years from further afield. Trucking the Ore to Telfor is probably the most efficient and least costly path production.
So what size is RS
π2m oz AuEq (a relatively modest find) value based on the above would be $100-300m)
π5m oz AuEq (equivalent to Haveiron Style footprint, value $250-700million).
π10m oz AuEq (classed as a Teir 1 Company maker, $500m - $1.5billion).
πDue to the location (strategically truckable to the Telfor Mill, relatively small Opex to develop and simulator ore) - then $125-150 oz Au in ground is achievable. Maybe more given the rise in gold prices.
π Do your own research guys - but I see this to have a 10 - 50 bag potential here. π€π€π
DL taking this placing is a master stroke, as it means that they still hold on to 100% RS footprint with a fully funded drill campaign - the longer they hold on to 100% and prove it up, the better
Greatland who own and operate Telfor will already be keeping a close interest in developments at Red Setter as will other major players.
βοΈSo what have we found so far :
They will already have a good idea what they are looking at by carrying out Gravity Surveys, Magnetics, IP and resistivity testing etc, step out holes will confirm.
I think the giveaway here though is that they have decided to drill the original deeper - they would only drill deeper for the following reasons:
π To test the feeder zone (engine)
π Breccia formations are verticle conduits.
π Feeper levels are closer to the Hyrothermal Source.
π The Deeper zones have far better grades - more sulphides, more gold-copper.
π Drilling deeper tells you if you are neer the core of the system (where the big prize is) or just the upper halo.
π You don't go back and drill deeper if the first drill didn't show hugely positive initial drill bits, backed up by all the clever stuff above surface.
π so basically they know they have hit a Breccia Chiney system - by drilling deeper, combined with possibly a couple of step out drills - they will find out if they have just found a stand alone breccia chimney (amazing on uts own) or part of a gold-copper system like Havieron or Telfor. Either are company makers- if it ms the latter we could be looking at acerage literally worth billions.
πGoogle Havieron and Telfor Mines to see what we are potentially sitting on. Havieron starts about 500m below surface and continues to 1200m. Telfor is shallo
