If everything goes to plan and we have a couple of million tonnes of our ore passing through Telfer in the future then what do you guys think the plan will be?
If Newcrest take the option to buy the final 5% at market value then that should give us a nice old war chest going forward and we could possibly be looking at profits from the toll treatment of somewhere between $10-$20 million per year.
Would GH's plan be to start paying divi's out to the shareholders?? It would make GGP even more desirable to people looking at a nice steady income over the next 15-20 years - 25% of the profit from the toll treatment without any outlay.
Here's some ideas that I have been mulling over -
Say 200,000 Oz @ an AISC of $800 @ todays gold prices of $1,400 leaves a profit of 200,000 x $600 = $120,000,000
GGP share @ 25% = $30,000,000.
Subtract $5,000,000 for GGP expenses/war chest
Profit = $25,000,000
Shares in issue (assuming no more dilution) = 3,323,420,145
Profit / Share = 0.77c or 0.59p @ todays exchange rate - for someone with 3.5M shares in their ISA (me) that would be a nice 20K per year tax free.
I know these are simplistic calculations so if any or all of my ideas are c**p then feel free to shoot them down but in a nice gentle manner
