SearchWeb SiteTreeForumSEDARQuoteIPV
Sherwood, led by CEO Bruce McLeod and President Stephen Quin, operated the Minto Mine in Canada's Yukon Territory prior to its November 25, 2008 amalgamation with Capstone Mining. The agreement, where Sherwood shareholders received 1.566 Capstone shares per Sherwood share, valued Sherwood at $65 million. Sherwood's flagship Minto project had resources of 900 million copper pounds in all categories, with an additional 400,000 gold ounces and 4.6 million silver ounces.

Key to Understanding IPV Charts and Spec Value Hunter Tables
An IPV Chart is a graphical presentation of a Spec Value Hunter table that has been constructed according to the Rational Speculation Model developed by John Kaiser. The IPV Chart allows speculators to identify which projects offer poor, fair or good speculative value in both absolute and relative terms. The speculative value depends on the project stage, the project's implied value as calculated by the company's fully diluted capitalization, stock price and net project interest, and the dream target deemed appropriate for the project. A dream target is what a project would be worth in discounted cash flow terms once in production.
Green background indicates the dream target judged appropriate for this play by John Kaiser - otherwise unranked.
Poor Speculative Value - Fair Speculative Value - Good Speculative Value -
Note: narrow arrows indicate IPV is outside the fair value channel but within 25% of the fair value limits

The comparative NPV calculations assume constant annual cash flow based on the life of mine average annual payable production and CapEx spent in year one. The operating cost includes the LOM sustaining capital. Due to details such as ore scheduling these NPV figures may differ from those of the 43-101 economic study.
