The KWR resources is 500kOz at 1.3g/t. Hauling 250km equates to expenditure of 0.4g/t dropping the effective grade to 0.9g/t.
The Brightstar mill is then so small that the processing cost is about the same as toll treating at one if the nearby mills that are doing toll treatment. Plus it’s not in operating condition.
