RE: Caerus up another 11% today15 Jun 2021 07:45
@Johntrader, @Scott22,
I "think" the Caerus game plan will be to test & prove up tailings processing viability across as many of their 14? sites across Cyprus, and it's within Caerus interest to get good news early, though CB mentioned in a recent podcast that they want a cross section of results before leaping in with say a single JV on the first site. Having said that as these mines are old (some really old) the mining technology back then will in many cases result in good grades in the tailings.
For JLP - CB mentioned that a "central processing plant" maybe the way to go (subject to local logistics & restrictions).
This would give scale to both companies, and IF Caerus did decide to mine - minds greater than mine may see this as a longer term growth opportunity for JLP.
Clearly as you say Scott the initial SP uplift will be early days in Caerus, but you will see impacts on JLP SP through the following i believe...
1 As discoveries & JV's take real 'quantifiable' shape.
2 A decision to construct a defined centralised processing plant with capacity to expand.
3 Announcements that JLP can and will take "Jubes" brand & processing further in to Europe, and potentially other jurisdictions.
I think the last point (3) is the real game changer and whilst CB in the same podcast said it isn't easy to support wide spread geographic growth, - my view is that it would be easier with strategic partners & Leon at the helm.
Note this is not a ramping up of Caerus - i am not an investor in Caerus.
IMO ATB Shorn
