2017-3-29 The carbothermic sinter cost is based on the cost of the sinter installed for Kalagadi mine in 2012. The 2.4 Mt sinter/annum plant was bought for R 1.4 billion [7]. Sinter costs are assumed to be linear based on the hourly production rate. The hourly production rate was calculated for each process and is given in Table 4.
