Project financials

According to Hastings’ quarterly report, the capex increased to A$503 mio.

In the time-honored tradition of Hastings mathematical acrobatics, Lew has a fantasticnew financial model, under which he only needs to achieve US$10.63/kg for a 29% concentrate.

Even if 100% the 29% concentrate contents were NdPr (it is 12%) and there were zero deductibles, this price would not be possible.

The whole Hastings story would be mildly amusing, if it was not so sad, even tragic, that one person is wasting so many people’s time and money.

Will it be over soon?
