" the price was alright but we weren't getting it. sempra was charging cprk for 60k worth of non-existent freight, and also charged for double treatment for smelting of the CuCon. so 600k of CuCon, we were only getting 325K, which is bull$hit cause because freight and smelting should never go above 25%, and were paying over 50%. "
i apologize for my mis-wording of the 25%, basically out of the 100% in a shipment, roughly 25% is wrote off for freight, treatment, and smelting of the CuCon.
============================================================
can you further explain what this means? Thanks.
" ...theyre a fledgling mine so when their smelter is over charging, and is writing off almost 50% of the CuCon as un-useable (which supposedly isnt the case, and industry average is about 20-25% bad con per shipment)..."
does that mean their con is no good according to the smelter standard or are they shipping concentrate that is less than 20-25 % copper?
