Magna Mining (NICU) – Market Leading High Grade Nickel Results
Crux interview (Must listen):
Notes
- FNX Mining was the best performing stock between 2000-2010 on the TSX
- Went from $0.25/share to a high of $39/share
- Bringing on second drill rig sometime in the next couple of months
- Footwall deposits are Copper + PGM rich and can have appreciable nickel
- Flexible metals mix in one mine
- Copper PGM mine
- Nickel mine
- Both footwall zones are in Sudbury breccia, one being nickel rich and other nickel poor
- Sees production as low risk and does not want to take on debt before being an established cash flower
- Toll milling means in theory having a flexible mill with 0-7,000 tpd capacity
- Expecting to prove up more Contact Style mineralization and find Footwall deposits at Crean hill
- Selective mining
- Doubling of grade example: C$1,452/t (~4% NiEq)
- 50,000 bulk sample = C$72.6 M
- 1,000 tpd * 350 days = 1,000 * 350 * $1,452 = C$508 M/year
- 500 tpd = C$254 M/year
