No, no need to rely on me to connect the dots: just do the reading, listen to the interviews and have a memory a bit longer than a goldfish.
The RNS says this, "announces an update to the announcement of 18 August in relation to the Company's operations,". What that means is that the two RNSs are linked. AB did an interview post that RNS that I posted on here earlier: he quite clearly states why they are doing the sampling. No where in any RNS does RRR state that ALR intends to procure a JORC.
If ALR was being listed or sold or it needed bank finance then maybe a JORC report would be needed but one was not needed for its initial plan or for its new plan.
Any offtake agreement will probably involve some sort of advance payment from the offtaker.
For instance, if you look at the FEQ report from January, it is based on 60,000 tonnes pa and producing $10.7mil pa. Divide $10.7mil by 60,000 tonnes and you will see that FEQ was using a price of $178 per tonne. Lets assume nothing else changes and we just use a likely price for 4%+ grade, say $1.000/tonne then we get $60mil pa. You can play around with the numbers as much as you like. The FEQ report says that it values Tin Hill at $39.2mil based on $178/tonne. So if the price for 4%+ grade is $1,000/tonne we should multiply out $39.2mil x 5.6 =$219.52mil.
The above doesn't include anything for the fact the pegmatite PEG 1 goes into the hill and continues to depth and so has greater volume that previously thought or the other two pegmatites discovered on site or the possible 4th pegmatite or any of the other sites ALR has. It also doesn't include anything for the tin, tantalum, berylium or other minerals on site.
It looks to me like my slice of the middle of a doughnut might be worth some serious money.
NB I don't think we would have anyone willing to write a cheque for $200mil plus before you all start hyperventilating. This is about order of magnitude. Tin Hill/ALR is worth a multiple of RRR's market capitalisation.
