Yes I know they have had a fund raising....but still scratching my head over the value, market has placed on 30,000 tons of high grade surface copper.....(about nett $16 million-post raising) ------------------------------------------ Most of that copper is JORC compliant..(check out some of the drills, at bottom of post) The Company prepared a project feasibility statement in January....(see copy below). They say toal revenues of $120m...in actual fact, since Jan its closer to double ie $240m. Refer spot copper price Kitco.
Absolute little dream of a stock. ________________________________________________________
