Option is 60c, he exercises and sells for $1.10
The difference is 50c does he not pay a fixed "capital gain" of 40% on the difference?

Nice try, you clowns are clueless - top marginal tax rate in Ontario for 2015 is approximately 50%.
So it doesn't matter what his income was.
He made just shy of $80,000 profit on the exercise of the options.
50% x $80,000 = $40,000

Looks like he has at least $10,000 in his jeans for a nice vacation next winter.

All the clowns who recommended your post are just as clueless.
You guys don't know metallurgy,
don't know mining,
don't know financial statements,
don't know taxes,
