Geologists estimated that 320,000 tons of ore would be extracted. After the ore is removed, the land will have a resale value of $100,000.

The structures cannot be moved after the ore has been removed and will be left at the site. In addition, new equipment costing $55,200 was purchased and installed at the site.
