Financial Considerations and Upside Potential
Depending on what the JV delineates at Menzies, the ore could either be trucked and toll-treat at EGS'
Davyhurst plant or have its own plant at Menzies. IRC estimated the cost of having its own ~400ktpa hard
rock rated plant as ~$20m to $25m, so it is not justified at present, and a different size may be envisaged
by EGS when its Ida complex is included. But just how big could Menzies become? It has clearly become
forgotten. There are not many WA goldfields which had historic grades where 2oz/t to 5oz/t (~70g/t to
~170g/t) was common as visible gold in thick quartz, and I have never heard of a mine with an average
recovered grade of almost 100g/t, but yet both the aptly named Surprise and Surprise North that lay on
strike north of Selkirk did - and do not appear to have been looked at (or explored) since 1915!
Grade intersections were usually double digit, anything less than that was ignored as too low or
classified as "not typical Menzies". And despite its open-cuts typically being 50m to 100m deep and
~1moz extracted from the ~10km long goldfield, it has become forgotten. Perhaps it was also fueled by
~2.5g/t reported open-cut grades, whereas if they had been 3g/t to 4g/t, Menzies would have attracted
more interest. I recall Goldfields often stating that they wished they had gone underground at Menzies, but
didn't, & being intrigued as to why something that averaged 2.5g/t prompted such interest, (unless grades
were higher). Having now raised sufficient cash, IRC appears to be in a prime position to grow and
develop Teal and Goongarrie Lady, with the strategic JV with EGS enabling the development of the rest of
Goongarrie and Menzies (both shallowly drilled with many gaps and possibly overlooked geology).
