Thanks for double checking my numbers Mikie. Basically you could say that each additional Thutse sized module should add about US$5.4 million in earnings (assuming costs and revenue remain constant). One other thing is, the first Thutse module has a monthly throughput capacity of 30,000 tonnes of ROM I believe:
"Jubilee expands its operational chrome footprint by a further 360 000 tonnes per annum processing capacity targeting an additional 200 000 tonnes chrome concentrate and 10 000 oz PGM feed to Inyoni, through a new partnership agreement."
So the two additional modules which are 50,000 tonnes/month processing capacity each would be more than 3 times the first Thutse module in capacity. So I would say somewhere in the region of US$50 million / year from chrome alone is very achievable is chrome price remains strong.
