    Wanted to start a thread dedicated to discussing the DSO operation.
    The current rc drill program is infill drilling the 4100 zone to establish a Jorc compliant resource base.

    If a viable DSO op gets up it funds expansion drilling across the broader tenement ( and that is a huge Cu rich are). It also funds drilling deep for the mother ship.... and if the resource is big enough it funds a highly profitable business in and of itself

    Oh and it would clearly help fund West Desert and Copper Warrior

    So..... a whole lot riding on a viable DSO operation

    I will start the conversation with my estimate of what $ a DSO operation might generate

    Say 3 sorting machines @ 2000 t/day
    1.5% cu/t ore = 6000 t/ore @ 1.5
    90t contained Cu
    54t/ day recovered at 60% DSO recovery
    54t/ day at AUD $12,446 per ton
    $672,212 / day DSO operation
    Circa 41m ton ore in 4100 zone
    Sorting circa 2.2m tpa
    Circa 20 year 4100 zone mine life
    Annual revenue $245m
    Critical global Cu shortage within 5 year
    DSO expanded to 5 sorters within 3 years
    Resource expanded 5x across tenements within 3 with expanded exploration
    Within 3 years a $1.2B annual Cu operation

    The ore is there ... it's being proved out as we speak ... that's the whole reason for the current highly successful infill drilling program

    Thoughts?
