approve the placement i say, page-4

Lets see- hypothetically speaking

230 million invested
ramp up to 500,000 oz per annum @$2000 ounce (average) in 2013, 14 and 15 =1 Billion revenue per annum double the issued script to 9 billion (with possible consolidation) in 12 months or less

Reduce Opex from $1200 oz to $800 oz by improving economies of scale

We have a back of envelope of:

assume $900/oz x $500,000= $450,000 operating profit /30% tax depreciation amortization etc....

$300,000 NPAT Per annum so their payback is less than 12 months once they got to 500,000 oz/annum

Now i havent taken into consideration hedging so if we hedged 30% at $1700/oz (135,000 ounces at 1700 would be less 40 million per annum

What is wrong with those numbers compared to what we are doing today

Even with 9 billion shares o issue post placement its still around 15 times more profit for only 2 x amount of shares on issue

Therefore a NPAT of around $230 million per annum (SHANDONG INITIAL INVESTMENT)

230m divided by 9billion shares gives us an EPS of 2.4c x P.E multiple of 10 = 24c share so while the chinese are building their gold inventory the share price will slowly appreciate anyway - so at current levels you would be a fool to think the share-price would decrease so thats why i think its a screaming buy- the catch is how long will it take to get to 500,000 production per annum?? but at least we would have the cash to get there

SCREAMING BUY FOR ME!!!
