0.127% MoS2 = 2.54 lbs of MoS2, but only (2.54 x 60%) 1.52 lbs of Mo. Mo at $25 per lb makes your 1.52 lbs worth $38.10. If you get 85% recovery (88% in the mill and 97% in the roaster) you have $32.39 per ton. 40 million tons for an open pit op with .127% MoS2 or 0.076% Mo is not spectacular, but has possibilities. You use "could be" a couple of times. There are lots of deposits double and triple this size, already drilled off that are a long ways from production decisions because of permitting and financing hurdles. Location is important.
