That doesn't create a lower limit, just a life expectancy. And the life expectancy is still very long — "within the lifespan of the universe" http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micro_black_hole

The lifespan of a 108,000 tonne black hole is ~350 hours. At that mass, its event horizon is .32 attometres across, and the Hawking radiation it emits is measured in gigaelectronvolts.
I assume your point is that a GeV is a minuscule amount of energy, which isn't going to push 130kT around at any speed.
you're quoting a speculative paper.
I haven't read the story extract, but I assume the plan
would be to bleed matter into the micro black hole to
maintain it.
