And you have the staged purchase price to consider for the deposit if it comes through. My eyes nearly glazed over doing the strange formula, but essentially I came up with about $7 /oz (two thirds after feasibility and the rest as a royalty) to buy in for their 80% of the deposit (assumes 1.6 million of 2 million oz). That adds a good chunk to exploration expense.

Here it is from the IR:

The company can earn its interest by paying (all US$) $1.15million, with $200,000 payable on signing; and conducting $2.25 million in exploration over four years, completing a feasibility study, and purchasing economically recoverable ounces of gold as defined by the study. The Company will initially earn a 50% interest by completing the above payments and work expenditure, and purchasing 30% of the defined gold ounces at $10.00/ounce. It can increase its interest to 80% by arranging financing for the project and by purchasing an additional 25% of the defined gold ounces at $8.00/ounce based on a $300 gold price, payable out of cash flow from any mining operation. NDT will receive preferential payback until all capital costs have been repaid, with Minera Solimana then receiving 20% of cash flow.

Unless this comes in well under $145 cash cost (??) why not just buy an advanced stage deposit like Minefinders four and half million ounces ($145 cash cost) at two bucks (ten million mkt cap, EV) an ounce already proven up. A lot cheaper.
