Yeah probably not the best article, i was simply just trying to add weight to Fatsharks brilliant post about increased EBIT....
FWIW the plants capacity changes due to the ore that it process, so with only soft oxide ore its 1.8-2.0mtpa, years 1-2 its slightly dragged down here because of the small potion of GA ore...... With very hard refractory sulphide UG ore BLK have conservatively modelled it at 800ktpa years 3 onwards...maybe it can go to 1mtpa with hard ore once they spend the $15m on upgrading the flotation as mentioned in the DFS.
All this is mentioned in the PFS and DFS, for example in the PFS they give a great example on the hardest of each ores, plant capacity etc...
