BMA Gold (BMO) issued a media release last night which announced a JORC-compliant resource of 526000 tonnes @ 19.3 g/t for 327000 ounces, with more gold in the inferred category.
BMO's market cap is currently 54M shares @ 25 cents or a total of $13.2M.
Using the firgures previously mentioned in HC, from MiningNews.net, we are looking at an $8M development cost if they truck the ore, and operating costs of $100 per ounce. This sounds reasonable, given the grade of the ore. They suggest a possible mining rate of 80000 ounces per year, which would give a mine life of 4 years based only on current reserves.
Gold is currently $560 per ounce, so the operating margin per ounce would be $560 - $100 = $460, which would give a total operating profit per year of $460 x 80000 = $36.8M before tax, etc.
Over the life of the mine the pre-tax profit would be $147M.
Compare these figures with the market cap of $13.2M.
Miniing is likely to start in 2005.
Orebody is expanding and open at depth.
Sounds good to me... I'm in.
