EC, Got a question for you: Nautilus (sea floor massive sulphide miner) is estimating an operating expense of US $50 to $65 per dry tonne to get their ore from the sea floor to their stock pile on land. How does that compare to onshore mining. Seems pretty expensive to me, but what do I know?

Other info: Strip ratio is essentially zero. Typical ore is 7.5% copper, 7.2 grams/tonne gold, 37 grams/tonne silver, 0.8% zinc.
