Yes, it depends on the thickness of the slabs, the local climate and the initial moisture content of the wood. But, that much lumber is worth a lot of money. I think most domestic hardwoods are currently in the $5-$10 range per board foot (e.g. 12"x1"x1"). And that's rough sawn, you still need to mill that into usable pieces.
