Kinross Gold

DELIVERING DISCIPLINED GROWTH Third largest primary Gold Producer in North America
in response to cedartree's message

The economics for Kinross to buy out their Fort Knox Gil joint venture with Teryl (20% Teryl) would be ridiculously good.

Buying out Teryl even at $1.00/share would be $59 million one time. Kinross would likely profit from the closer-by (about 3 miles each way less hauling) and higher-grade (roughly 4-8 times higher grade depending on pit design) Gil Venture ore to blend in with Forst Knox ore, net of costs ($250/oz for the Fort Knox heap leach) and net of hauling less low-grade from the Fort Knox pit (limited trucks, can't haul everything at once) by roughly $165-$235 million/year for 5-8 years. Will post better figures when I have them (probably on Agoracom's Teryl hub at http://agoracom.com/ir/TerylResources/forums/discussion , but maybe here as well).
