For nickel juniors, there is also DNI.V, CRO.V, JNI.V, CML.V, UMJ.V, even RNG.TO.

Sounds like someone should start a nickel thread on SI.

At what point does a low base case become false and misleading?

A company would risk law suits if it used outrageously high base case price data.

CZZ uses such low prices that even the +20% case fails to do justice to the actual situation.

Base case assumptions: Nickel price: US$5.00; copper price: US$1.25

Using a base case of prices 50% lower than actual would result in a base case for Ni of $6.625 and for Cu of $1.75.

True that when the IRR was calculated actual prices may have been lower but my point is, is it normal practice to use base case price that are less than 50% of actual prices?

Would it not make more sense to start the base near actual prices and show how price drops of up to 75% would impact a project? A range showing impacts fro 25%, 50% and 75% would be much more informative than using ultra low base case numbers.

CZZ news today.

Canadian Royalties Inc.: Bankable Engineering Feasibility Study and Environmental and Social Impact Assessment Study Awarded

Waitng for trading to see if anyone cares.

Very interesting article yesterday in WSJ on POSCO's nickel problems and vertical integration comeback, especially in metals sector.

BTW I realize that no one can predict the future price of any product but using a downside range to understand the impact of volatility provides more information than phony low base cases. The bank or lenders can always choose to use the 50% or even 75% worst cases as a basis for provision of funds.
