ramu comparison

  1. 755 Posts.
    Ramu has very similar total Ni Resource at about US$25 billion assuming Ni Price $8/pound.

    However average grades are higher at 1% with higher Cobalt as well.

    Ramu is all systems go with Chinese backing.

    Similar distance from the coast and terrain as far as I can see.

    Highlands Pacific has sold it off but still retains 8.56% with clawback provisions.

    HIG market cap $224 million.

    Obviously everyone involved thinks Ramu is feasible. The question is - is the Wowo feasible at 0.8% Nickel? I guess this is why RMI has a market cap at present of only $10 million.

    Add to the picture the fact that there is likely to be a resource extension of similar grades - they are still drilling.

    If you believe Nickel prices will go higher - then yes, Wowo is definitely feasible.

    There is already a model to work off - ramu.

    Ramu fact sheet:


    The Ramu Project, located 75 km south west of the provincial capital of Madang in PNG,
    contains an estimated resource of 143 million tonnes at 1.01% nickel and 0.1% cobalt. The
    project is currently in development with commissioning of the mine site to be completed in
    early 2009 and commissioning of the process plant to be completed in late 2009.
    The project will have annual output of 31,150 tonnes of nickel and 3,300 tonnes of cobalt
    contained in a high grade intermediate product over a 20-year plus mine life. Resources not
    yet converted to reserves have the potential to increase mine life by a further 15-20 years.
    Ore will be beneciated at the mine site with the upgraded ore pumped through a 134 km
    slurry pipeline to the renery at Basamuk Bay from where the nished product will be
    exported.
