Shanghai tin market is still very soggy. Simply cannot get itself above the CNY200k/t level. Think that's what's really weighing down on the market and MLX. So, my simple back-of-the-envelope calculation for MLX sees tin @ US$25k/t (that is about A$36.5k/t at current FX) and eventually AISC @ A$20k/t. At 5,500t a year that generates about A$90mn. If you want to be really pessimistic you can do the same calc with tin @ US$20k/t. That gets you about A$52mn a year, and arguably that is what the market is pricing in now if you apply a 6x P/E multiple. Medium to long term I don't think this is right, but then we could be facing a very difficult 12 months in the global economy. Some form of a recession is almost a certainty. And this time policy makers are out of bullets to engineer a quick turnaround.

All I'm hoping for is that management is prudent, keeps most of the cash in reserve and uses some to buy back, say, 10% of outstanding shares. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like it.

For AISC to be 20k/t or in that area I believe we need 4 milestones completed.
1. Paste plant completed and commissioned.
2. Raise bore and additional vent rises completed with surface fan.
3. Switch yard power upgrade completed.
4. Mill upgrades and Underground fixed plant upgrades completed.
IMO hopefully most of these can be achieved this year.

I'll go into more details with a few things when the quarterly comes out if anyone has questions.
GLTAH and hopefully a recovery in tin price.
