PROJECT PROFITABILITY

 

 

INVESTMENT INDICATORS

 

 

The entire project is based on the mining capacity of 3 million tons of nodules per year, including further hydrometallurgical processing of the raw materials, making it possible to procure independent supplies of the following strategic metals:

870,000 tons of electrolytic manganese,
35,000 tons of metallic nickel,
26,000 tons of cathode copper,
6,000 tons of metallic cobalt.

The Annual Net Profit upon attainment of the project capacity will make $1,164 Mio.
