LET'S DO THE MATH!!
Assuming a 50/50 split on the dore bars
Industry standard is higher but let's keep it simple my brain is tired today
Let's use $1000 per ounce for Gold and $13 per ounce for Silver
This discount is likely because there are additional refining issues for the end user
500kg is 1100 pounds x 12 ounces per pound (troy)
So each shipment would consist of 13,200 ounces of bars
6600 ounces x $1000 per ounce gold is $6.6 million
6600 ounces x $13 per ounce Silver is $85,800
Total for each shipment (PER WEEK!) is 6,685,800!!
Yearly revenues come out to over $300 million!!
Wowsers
Even if you flip it over and say that the bars are 90% silver and 10% gold, it still comes out to around $1.5 million per week
That is still almost 80 MILLION DOLLARS on an annual basis
