the transport cost to truck to BTR mill is 0.4 g/ t.
15 c t Km , 260km is $39 per tonne. so at $3000 Aus gold is equivalent to 0.4 g/t.
of which then you get all the gold recoverable and all the profit.
consider the joint venture. loosing 50 % of the profit by doing a joint venture and toll treat.
pretty easy argument why taking to own mill makes sense
