[QUOTE="hAyyoUinAU, post: 396389, member: 10637"] 3.82 Grams to the tonne is probably the lowest you would go. At $50 a gram, that would be only $200 per 1000kg of dirt. How you process that dirt will be your expenses. If you do it alone, without equipment, it would be profitable. Otherwise its not worth it. The 17.7gram a tonne figure is more reasonable. And that would probably allow you to start mining at todays gold prices. Also, samples are only an estimate obviously. So could have more or less. Would be interesting to see what other minerals they assayed, that can also help profits. All depends [/QUOTE]
