Donald,

No doubt this is a tough business ... there are so many things one has to consider .... off of the top of my head:

1) Grades of ore
2) Nature of mineralization
3) Political concerns
4) Recovery rates
5) Geography
6) Location of infrastructure
7) Financing
8) Capabilities of management
9) Market conditions
10) New technology
11) Stripping ratios
12) Labour
13) Water availability
14) The weather

It is a wonder anybody goes into this biz ... or invests in it for that matter<G>
