RE: RIO agreement20 Oct 2019 22:13
4unme, thanks but my angle here is this SP has rarely reflected the value of the asset and there isn't any revenue. So my question to you is if you were a Rio, based on what data is available today to us what methodology would you use to work out a realistic valuation of JAY on the assumption you were looking to do a deal off take or outright bid? I have asked this as it is easy for shareholders to get excited about possible valuation numbers but the limiting factor will be what someone is prepared to pay for it just like when you buy a house. Unless there are multiple bids I can't see them over paying for the sake of it (ie for undefined resources yet at JORC status) so I go back to my question what is the methodology you would use if in their shoes to determine a valuation and a price you would be prepared to pay for it. For example X million JORC resource tonnes times by Y price for the resource still in the ground and before costs less a % discount? I'm just curious to see what peoples expectations are here as then an indicative SP can be calculated based on a more likely conservative approach looking from the RIO perspective. Hopefully more positive news on the way. I liked the Disko update and the point made around engagement with 3 parties for strategic partnerships. Time will tell.
