Message: Using Highland Valley's 2010 Cost as a Benchmark to est. Schaft Creek's Profit

The 2011's cost is not chosen due to the effect of significantly higher sales volumes and the one-time labour settlemet cost of 44 million, as well as a greater proportion of the costs were capitalizd as part of the mine life expansion program in 2010 per Teck's website.

This estimate did not consider the high grade starter pit and the silver value.

i personally think this estimate is close to the FS which will be released soon.

There is a negative cost existed.

The annual net profit after depreciation and amortization is 918,393,635 CND, 2.29 CND/share

Have fun
