Ann: MAK Invests in Phosphoric Acid Production Me, page-9

re: Ann: MAK Invests in Phosphoric Acid Produ... "Initial capital cost estimates of a dry kiln plant, inclusive of crushing and grinding
circuits, and tailings storage facilities, is US$150M for a 200,000tpa plant. Current
sales price would be about US$500/t FOB Darwin."

ummmmmmmmm. so what do we assume here? is this process going to condense the product down by upto 4 times thus getting the FOB Darwin to $US500/t , up from its current price of maybe $120/t or something in this area. then assuming if this is the case a plant that can output 200K t/pa of the condensed product is equivelent to 4 times that of the normal being 800K tonnes of rock. then that being the case we'll need 4 of these plants to out put the 3million t/a that we want too. that'll be 4 X $150million.
but just assuming here
cheers PC
