I copied this from the Telegram group from MS. He did some estimates based on the information from RNS.
Estimate of value of gold and silver we have at Mineral Jackpot:
From the RNS on 15 Oct 2020:
There are approximately 38 historic spoil heaps already identified at MJ as having the potential for secondary recovery of precious metals through cyanide leaching and/or gravity separation, about half of which have been inspected and are readily accessible.Β It has not yet been feasible to measure and evaluate all the spoil heaps but a preliminary estimate of their combined weight could be as high as 12,000 tonnes of material.Β Further sampling and testing will need to be performed before long term production volumes can be estimated.
So we have about 12,000 tonnes of material.
Assumptions:
Low case: 0.5g/tonne gold, 100g/tonne silver
Medium case: 1.0g/tonne gold, 200g/tonne silver
High case: 2.0g/tonne gold, 400g/tonne silver
Gold price assumed at $1800/oz, silver at $20/oz.
Total gold & silver estimate:
Gold:
Low case: 6,000g, 211oz, $379,800 worth
Medium case: 12,000g, 423oz, $761,400 worth
High case: 24,000g, 846oz, $1,522,800 worth
Silver:
Low case: 1,200kg, 42,328oz, $846,560 worth
Medium case: 2,400kg, 84,657oz, $1,693,140 worth
High case: 4,800kg, 169,315oz, $3,386,300 worth
Recovery:
Gravity separation recovery assumed at 30% for gold and 15% for silver. Cyanide leaching recovery assumed at 80% for gold and 40% for silver.
Recovered value with gravity separation:
Gold:
Low case: 1,800g, 63.5oz, $114,300 worth
Medium case: 3,600g, 127oz, $228,600 worth
High case: 7,200g, 254oz, $457,200 worth
Silver:
Low case: 180kg, 6,349oz, $126,980 worth
Medium case: 360kg, 12,699oz, $253,980 worth
High case: 720kg, 25,397oz, $507,940 worth
Recovered value with cyanide leaching:
Gold:
Low case: 4,800g, 169oz, $304,200 worth
Medium case: 9,600g, 338oz, $608,400 worth
High case: 19,200g, 677oz, $1,218,600 worth
Silver:
Low case: 480kg, 16,931oz, $338,620 worth
Medium case: 960kg, 33,863oz, $677,260 worth
High case: 1,920kg, 67,726oz, $1,354,520 worth
As with before, these estimates ignored capital and processing costs, just an estimate of the gold and silver that can be recovered
The above gives us some nice funds on top of the 2 million to expand the projects. Still think 6 million mcap?
