Isilinganiso seminyaka engama-21 yokuphila kwemayini silinganiselwa ezigidini ezingu-6.2 zamathani ensimbi ngonyaka ngesilinganiso esimaphakathi. izinga lethusi elingu-1.2%.Le nkampani ilindele ukukhiqizwa kwaminyaka yonke kwamaphawundi ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingu-3 (1.36Mt) zethusi, ama-ounces ayizigidi ezingu-1.5 egolide kanye nama-ounces ayizigidi ezingu-21 esiliva esikhathini sokuphila kwemayini.
