Juk, would you (or others) kindly assist to clarify my wooly thinking please?
I have been trying to reason why the present lack of buying interest and hence a drifting SP lately. It occurs to me that one of the POSSIBLE causes COULD be unknowns and uncertainties associated with getting a mine working efficiently when the feedstock is a mix of various elements each with a different process requirement - and possible interactions to make matters even more complicated.
Not being a mining man I am unable to get a handle on how these challenges are usually tackled. ( maybe I am overstating the situation)
To make the picture even more cloudy I find it difficult to get a picture on the various Studies which are regularly mentioned in Corporate releases.
I can imagine the homework process is in at least two categories basically:
Technical Processing and Beaurocratic Licencing
Technical Studies. These would include:
Resource Studies, Metallurgical processing, Ore winning, Operational and Layouts, Costings and profitability etc.
These results would then feed into Scoping Studies - preliminary and final - which in turn provide a Definitive Feasability Study (bankable not needed in this case)
-And other things also I guess ?
Beauocratic Licences. Environmental Impact, Native Title (not needed here ?) Mining licence and safeguards
etc and no doubt there are lots more!
I wont mention our management/ PAWA stuff ups getting a grid power supply to the site.
It is not easy for "lay" people to properly understand what goes on in the mining game preparatory to getting a mine up and running and making money. (Two years ago I was apprehensive this project would not start up last Febuary as was mooted then.)
Have I been even roughly close with the foregoing ?
I would be very interested to hear a voice of experience to correct me if you will oblige.
