copper still 346 a pound, page-7

bonza boy even though I agree with you about buying all new stuff for a mine would be expensive. I think there would be a geat deal of second hand equipment out now with zinc mines closing down, orders of new stuff being deffered.
There would be a great saving by an astute company who wanted to buy second hand equipment to start mining, which would lower the capex have seen a few of the auction houses slowly putting up more equipment and it going for a big discount as no one seems to want it at the moment.
