    Hi rocksinhead,
    Thanks for your efforts here. Just a few comments. I come at it a bit differently but same-ish result.

    Its nice to also see someone who recognises that there was an $8m shortfall in the last raising. I agree that they may not need the full extra $8m but they did state that these funds were for the drilling/expansion of Bullant and to drill/progress Kempfield. "working capital and admin"

    Kempfield (we will have 70% come production). So far = "a project to produce 12 million ounces of payable silver, 15,000 ounces of gold and 42,000 tonnes of payable lead and zinc in concentrates over a 10.5 year mine life."

    Now, using figures from a recent YTC presentation.
    Ag = A$240m
    Au = A19.8m
    Pb+Zn = A$84,000
    T = $344m / 10.5 yr mine life
    = $32m pa gross
    say half that after Capex and Opex
    = $16m profit pa. X 70%
    = $11.2m pa From kempfield

    Bullant right now has 110k ozs and say a 5 1/2 yr life @ 20,000ozs pa.

    Bullant is to be contract mined and ore toll treated. So i'm guessing around $400 oz profit
    = $8m pa.

    total income from both say $20m pa for min 5 years.

    Obviously, you can get out of the above whatever you like. Using 10% discount over just 5 years (ignoring further out years)
    then PV income to ARD will be $82m

    Im guessing that they will raise another $4m @ 16c. Fully diluted = approx 170m shares.

    this = about 48c per share.
    with lots of wobbly assumptions including steady state production and no resource increases.

    This is for discussion only is not scientific, economic and probably not rational
