"The key point is that you can value 70% of Havieron and all of Telfer using half a dozen different methods, and Greatland has acquired the assets for tens of millions of dollars less than the lowest possible valuation, provided by Samuel Grant. IT’S A FOOKINGG STEAL."
"GGP has also executed a Bank Debt Letter of Support for AU$750 million in proposed banking facilities for the development of Havieron, with Tier-1 lenders ANZ, HSBC and ING Bank."
"GGP currently holds 30% of Havieron and 0% of Telfer and is ‘worth’ £350 million. This would make just 60% of Havieron ‘worth’ £700 million. GGP is buying 70% of Havieron and 100% of Telfer for £363 million, but is paying much of this in shares in itself, and then cash at some later date. MAKE IT MAKE SENSE."
"Havieron with its 8.4 Moz resource is estimated to sustain a:
‘2.8Mtpa mining operation with average annual production of 258koz gold equivalent at a lowest quartile all-in sustaining cost (AISC) globally of US$818/oz in steady state (first 15 years), with a 20-year total mine life.’ AISC of $818 and a gold price of $2,500+ and rising is some profit margin. Let’s say for safety, you’re making $1,500 an ounce in profit and generating 258,000 ounces a year. Anyone got a calculator? THAT IS $387,000,000 A YEAR. "
"...this includes a high confidence 15-month initial Telfer mine plan:
‘total estimated production of 426koz gold equivalent at an estimated AISC of US$1,454/oz from the restart of processing operations at Telfer (expected to occur in late September or October), which has the potential to generate significant near-term cash flow for the Company from Acquisition Completion.’ Let’s say you’re walking away with $1,000 per oz (yes taxes, royalties, blah blah).
426,000 x 1000 = $426,000,000/15 months = $28,400,000 per month of profit — and we all know Havieron is the real prize."
"Just hope Shaun Day gets this over the line quickly, because Newmont investors are going to have questions."
SO IN SUMMARY... INSTANT CASHFLOW FROM TELFER AT SAY USD$28MILL PER MONTH ON AVERAGE.
AND WHEN HAVIERON IS RUNNING WE COULD SEE CASHFLOW OF USD$387MILL PER ANNUM.
