Most recent quarterley estimates for production costs as researched by Diggers and Drillers are:
PAN $4.69/lb MCR $6.12/lb WSA $$.23/lb MRE $5.03/lb IGO $4.15/lb FXR $5.93/lb
Mirrrabella not in production yet, but in their May presentation they estimated $2.77/lb
Fuel, especially for those mines with their own power generation is actually quite a large expense for U/G mines, especially as they get deeper. More fans, more pumps means more gensets, plus there's longer hauls for the trucks and boggers.
