Mate he hangs around like a bad smell, obviously some sort of hidden agenda.
Try have said OC is 10km from the mill, Caterpillar 775 which have a top speed of just over 40 mph or 65 kmh. Lets say average speed of 40 kph, that would be about 2 round trips per hour. Note that is top speed when fully loaded
Each load is 75 tons so over a 10 hour shift, 20 loads 1500 tons. With a grade of 5 g/t that would be 7500 grams or 241 oz, at us$400 after aisc that would be $96.4 k per day and near $3m profit per month. Know that is one truck, I would think they would have 3-4 trucks to keep the loader operator busy.
No doubt management have worked that out long ago, the important factor which is what they are working on is to get an idea of the size of the deposit and test the ore to see how best to treat it
