Seis,
I have just had a look at the chrome figures and agree with your margin at $23.18 for the second quarter. This is a substantial increase on the first quarter. Revenue for the second quarter was $64,637,010 ( 718189 x 90 ) minus $ 28,618,055 ( 336,683 x 85 ) = $36,018,955. Divide by 381,506 tonnes equates to $94.41 per tonne revenue. Using the same method costs were £71.23 per tonne giving a margin of $23.18 per tonne. Hence chrome earnings of $8,843,309 for the second quarter ( 23.18 x 381,506 ). On a yearly basis this is $35,373,236, a substantial difference made by the last Thutse module and contract. Add 2 such further modules and i believe chrome earnings jump over $50M, as long as chrome prices hold, especially when you look at the difference one such module has already made. The current market cap is only 3 times this figure??
