[QUOTE="rios, post: 314306, member: 9558"] Hope eternal Urmm cost per pop isnt 20k as such as that 20k included capital equipment like compressor and jackhammers and water pump and enviromental impact assessment certificate, eg I bought a kaeser 185 cfm for 8k pre-owned 2015 compressor, wilden diaphragm pump for 2,3k new The cost of sinking a shaft would be about 5k, labour being cheap, timber freely available. Explosives would be the major operating cost driver. I am placing a bet here. Its 1. i spend 12k maybe for two 60m core holes and either get good samples or not get, with the chance that the drill can miss the target anyway 2. I sink a shaft for 5k or so and explore the underground as i go and either score or fail to score [/QUOTE]
