Roundtable Discussion; The Future of Mineral Sands. Watch the video here.
Those are the figures I came up with several months ago so the exchange rate has changed slightly in our favour, cjen the 5% figure was a rough figure found online for average sale price of a mine based on in ground value. I think this is a conservative figure. We still have a few hurdles before a possible sale but this gives us an idea of the asset value. Also as stated by Sheds I think there will be a large discount for the (hopefully) new owner to carry out a PFS. How much of a discount is anyone's guess. Fingers crossed for future of EUZ. GLA
The below was based on rough 5 year average prices of zinc, lead and silver as follows;
Potential Sale Value
Zinc (tonnes) = 830,000
Zinc price per tonne = $2500
830000 X 2500 = $2,075,000,000
Lead (tonnes) = 570,000
Lead price per tonne = $2000
570000 X 2000 = $1,140,000,000
Silver (ounces) = 14,000,000
Silver price per oz = $17
14,000,000 X 17 = $238,000,000
Zinc, Lead & Silver in ground value combined = $3,453,000,000
5% (I think this is reasonable for a guesstimate) of $3,453,000,00 would give us a value of $172,650,000
Converted to GBP would be £133,972,221
133,972,221 divided by 16,720,000,0000 (number of shares in issue) would give us a share price of £0.008012
I.e. 0.80 pence per share.
The 5% figure I have used is from researching online and this seems to be the rough figure used on in ground value for a sale price of a mine but this can obviously differ so if we were to use a 4% figure with the same values as above we would get 0.64 pps. Using 3% would give us 0.48 pps
I know this an ideal scenario to get 0.8 pps this but i think it helps to show the true value of this asset. These are only my calculations and I’m certainly no expert.
Extremely under valued imho, If you look at the risk/reward then this is a great opportunity I believe. If I’m wrong on any of the above let me know. Gla dyor
Only just had a proper read of the RNS due to work, I have to say it's excellent. Brilliant results but can't say I'm surprised at the share price with the current climate. Would really like to do a little top up but I have a lack of funds atm.
I posted a few days ago about potential sale value, I’ve updated my calculations from 3 year average prices of zinc,lead and silver to 5 years as follows;
Potential Sale Value
Zinc (tonnes) = 830,000
Zinc price per tonne = $2500
830000 X 2500 = $2,075,000,000
Lead (tonnes) = 570,000
Lead price per tonne = $2000
570000 X 2000 = $1,140,000,000
Silver (ounces) = 14,000,000
Silver price per oz = $17
14,000,000 X 17 = $238,000,000
Zinc, Lead & Silver in ground value combined = $3,453,000,000

I.e. 0.80 pence per share (current share price 0.024 pps so this would be 33 X current share price)

Looking through last years annual report I came across this “Over a longer time horizon, I am also interested to see copper again being identified from drilling activity, but this time at depth. With a resource open at around 1,000-1,200 metres depth, future exploration outside of the existing resource area would potentially seek to understand if thickening of mineralisation occurs and whether there is a significant copper presence in the deposit from a separate thermal event” I wonder if this was the reason for the additional wedge being drilled as per last RNS?
