I agree Mark it is difficult to compare. I am mainly focused on Lithium, the price rise of spodumene will put an extra £500m into the company or companies involved, on top of the estimate, so our share price and profit I am not concerned about.
But Bernie's experience in gold geology is looking very interesting. I believe our deepest sample is from 26m, 86 feet, other mines are working at 210 feet. From a profitability point of view that is of interest to me. Maybe you have never been in an open cast mine, the crater difference and amount of earth moved is vast between these two scenarios. More material does not equal more money when gold is not consistent at every level and you are moving earth to access your material or it is too low to afford processing.
I am looking forward to more data to firm up these current figures.
The areas he is drilling on are enormous, if it was relatively shallow the profits could be huge.
