They're still pouring money into the 2ktpa to get it up to scratch, with now additional things that need fixing or 'optimising'. Noting the plant has been fully constructed for a while now - the $436,000 they spent this last quarter was on improving performance and increasing production. Staff and administration of $313,000 needs be added as you have to include those essential costs.

It's fair to say they'll be spending at absolute minimum $1m the next quarter. That's just operational - it will likely a lot more, as it's not accounting for anything other than staff/wages and running/fixing/optimising costs, which are still on-going (and as mentioned above, additional things need fixing/optimising).

On top of that, every quarter they've been required to pay Puna Mining ($4.3m, $2.8m, $3.9m respectively in the last 3 quarters). The coming quarters will see no different in payments to Puna Mining.

Blind freddy roaming around somewhere here can even see they have 2-3 quarters left of funding.

Completely agree. It amazes me that there are still long term holders who can't wrap their head around this very simple concept. The estimated quarters of funding available figure is specific to AGY, not the Puna JV. It means the AGY office in Perth with a couple of people in it (and nothing more) could sustain operations for 44 quarters. It completely ignores any outgoings to the JV, which AGY is contractually obligated to finance. Combined funds were $9.83m as at 31 Mar 24. It's probably closer to $8m now that we're a third of the way through Q2. They've been burning roughly $4.5m per quarter, which means the current cash balance runs dry around the end of Q3.

It's absolutely mental that this still needs to be explained.
