Vancouver, BC – December 10, 2024 – Orla Mining Ltd. (TSX: OLA; NYSE: ORLA) (“Orla” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide an update on exploration at the Camino Rojo Extension, now referred to as “Zone 22”.

/

Summary Details:

  • Expanded Resource Potential: Drilling has extended mineralization 800 metres beyond the current open-pit resource, with Zone 22 remaining open at depth and along strike.
  • Drilling Progress: Over 32,000 metres drilled in 2024, with an additional 3,000 metres planned by year-end.
  • High-Grade Intersections: Notable results include 31.5 g/t AuEq over 2.7m and 11.2 g/t AuEq over 4.5m, among others.
  • Copper-Gold Discovery: A distinct Cu-Au-Ag mineralization event was identified, with copper grades up to 4.95%.
  • Upcoming Resource Estimate: An initial underground resource estimate for the Camino Rojo Sulphides, incorporating historical and 2024 Caracol-hosted intersections as well as a portion of the newly defined Zone 22 mineralization, is expected in early 2025, supporting a Preliminary Economic Assessment.

.

Drill Highlights:

  • 31.5 g/t AuEq over 2.7m, incl. 143.4 g/t AuEq over 0.6m (Hole CRSX24-36C)
  • 11.2 g/t AuEq over 4.5m, incl. 22.4 g/t AuEq over 1.3m (Hole CRSX24-40A)
  • 11.1 g/t AuEq over 2.8m, incl. 16.9 g/t AuEq over 1.5m (Hole CRSX24-40A)
  • 5.68 g/t AuEq over 4.9m, incl. 27.8 g/t AuEq over 0.5m (Hole CRSX24-31)

.

.

.

Sylvain Guerard, Orla’s Senior Vice President, Exploration said,

“The existing mineralization in the upper Caracol-host already set a strong foundation for the initial underground sulphide resource.

 

“It is now becoming clear that the future project will be enhanced by the Zone 22 Extension, and we continue to be impressed with the drill results: high-grade, polymetallic, and favourable metallurgy.

 

“Zone 22 remains wide-spaced drilled and open down-plunge, offering significant potential for further infill and step-out drilling to contribute to both resource growth and upgrades.”

O3 Mining to be Acquired By Agnico Eagle in Friendly Transaction

O3 Mining Inc. (TSXV: OIII)

O3 Mining and  Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (NYSE: AEM) (TSX: AEM) are pleased to jointly announce that they have entered into a definitive support agreement, pursuant to which Agnico Eagle has agreed to offer to acquire, directly or indirectly, all of the outstanding common shares of O3 Mining at $1.67 per Common Share, a %8% premium.

Comment

Well this is one acquisition that doesn’t surprise me.

I met with O3 Mining’s Jose Vizquerra earler this year and it was obvious he was looking for an acquirer with a degree of urgency, and he expressed disappointment that a bid hadn’t been forthcoming.

The proximity to Agnico Eagle’s Canadian Malartic mine made it a shoe in. The only surprise is possibly why this bid took so long in coming?

O3 looked to have gone as far forward as it could, and needed someone with much deeper pockets to take it on and move the project forwards. The company had lost traction and an acquisition was the logical move to realise the potential.

Agnico Eagle is the Rolls Royce of mining companies.

If Carlsberg ran a mining company, it would be Agnico Eagle.

Agnico Eagle to Acquire O3 Mining in Friendly Transaction

 

  • All cash offer of $1.67 per share representing a 58% premium to O3 Mining’s closing price on December 11, 2024
  • Offer unanimously recommended by Board and Special Committee of O3 Mining and supported by shareholders representing 22% of outstanding shares of O3 Mining

(All amounts expressed in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted)

 

.

TORONTO,Dec. 12, 2024/CNW/ – Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (NYSE: AEM) (TSX: AEM) (“Agnico Eagle“) and O3 Mining Inc. (TSXV: OIII) (OTCQX: OIIIF)(“O3 Mining“) are pleased to jointly announce that they have entered into a definitive support agreement (the “Definitive Agreement“), pursuant to which Agnico Eagle has agreed to offer to acquire, directly or indirectly, all of the outstanding common shares of O3 Mining (the “Common Shares“) at $1.67 per Common Share in cash by way of a take-over bid (the “Offer“).

 

The Offer is valued at approximately $204 million on a fully diluted in-the-money basis.

.

The Premium Cash Offer

The offer price of $1.67 per Common Share represents a premium of 57% to the volume weighted average price of the Common Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange for the 20-day period ended December 11, 2024 (the last trading day prior to announcement of the Offer).

O3 Mining’s primary asset is its 100%-owned Marban Alliance property located near Val d’Or, in the Abitibi region of Québec, and is adjacent to Agnico Eagle’s Canadian Malartic complex.

The Marban Alliance property includes the Marban deposit, which is an advanced exploration project that could support an open pit mining operation similar to Agnico Eagle’s Barnat open pit operations at the Canadian Malartic complex.

O3 Mining has estimated that the Marban pit contains 52.4 million tonnes of indicated mineral resources grading 1.03 g/t gold for 1.7 million ounces of gold and 1.0 million tonnes of inferred mineral resources grading 0.97 g/t gold for 32 thousand ounces of gold (effective date of February 27, 2022).

O3 Mining also owns 100% of the Alpha property and 100% of the Kinebik property.

The potential integration of the Marban Alliance property to the Canadian Malartic land package will create significant and unique synergies by leveraging Agnico Eagle’s regional operational expertise and existing infrastructure, including the Canadian Malartic mill and existing open pit workforce and equipment fleet.

 

.

 

O3 Mining’s President and CEO, Mr. José Vizquerra commented:

“The all-cash offer at a significant premium to market is an excellent outcome for our shareholders and is validation of the efforts made by the O3 Mining team.

 

“Having diligently advanced the Marban Alliance project over the past five years, the timing is right for O3 Mining to sell to a more experienced operator that can efficiently navigate the project through permitting and construction.

 

“This represents a substantial non-dilutive alternative to shareholders. We believe Agnico Eagle is the gold standard in the precious metals space – it not only has the financial strength and the mining expertise to advance the Marban Alliance project, but shares our commitment to work in partnership with stakeholders in a socially responsible manner.

 

“Today’s Offer represents a significant milestone for O3 Mining, and I would like to thank our employees, shareholders, First Nations partners, community partners and the Province of Québec for their support over the years.”

Uranium Energy Corp Completes Acquisition of Rio Tinto’s Sweetwater Plant and Wyoming Uranium Assets

.
.

Casper, WY, December 6, 2024Uranium Energy Corp. (NYSE American: UEC), the “Company” or “UEC”) is pleased to announce the completion of the previously announced (September 23, 2024) agreement with Rio Tinto America Inc. (“Rio Tinto”) to acquire 100% of Rio Tinto’s Wyoming assets, comprised of the wholly-owned and fully-licensed Sweetwater Plant  and a portfolio of uranium mining properties, including the Red Desert Project and the Green Mountain Project, with approximately 175 million pounds of historic resources(1)(the “Transaction”).

 

The purchase price paid was approximately $175.4 million in cash and was funded with UEC’s available liquidity.

 

 

.

Amir Adnani, President and CEO, stated:

“The Transaction presents a rare opportunity to acquire U.S. licensed facilities and uranium mining properties from a leading global miner.

 

“These assets will significantly enhance and accelerate UEC’s production capabilities in Wyoming’s Great Divide Basin.

 

“The Sweetwater Plant, a 3,000-ton-per-day processing mill with a licensed capacity of 4.1 million pounds U3O8annually, can also be adapted to recover uranium from loaded resins produced by In-Situ-Recovery (“ISR”) operations, offering UEC the flexibility to support both ISR and conventional mining.

 

“With the addition of the Sweetwater Plant, UEC has the largest licensed production capacity in the U.S.

 

“The recent investments in nuclear power by Big Tech companies, including Microsoft, Amazon, Google and Meta, demonstrates unprecedented interest from several of the world’s largest and most sophisticated companies in expanding America’s nuclear energy baseload capacity.

 

“These companies fully realize nuclear power is a key source of highly reliable, clean and safe energy to power the increased energy demands required by AI computing.

 

“As the largest U.S.-based uranium company, UEC will play a critical role in supplying the fuel required for today and the future – a point further underscored by Russia’s recently announced uranium export restrictions.”

/

.

Transaction Highlights:

  • Creates UEC’s Third U.S. Hub-and-Spoke Production Platform;
  • Acquisition of a Highly Invested Asset Base with Operating Synergies;
  • Combined U.S. licensed production capacity of 12.1 million pounds of U3O8per year;
  • Drives Sizeable and Accretive Resource Growth; 
  • Unlocks Significant Scarcity Value and Production Optionality; and

West Red Lake Gold Mines Madsen Mine Update

 

.

West Red Lake Gold Mines Ltd. (“West Red Lake Gold” or the “Company”) (TSXV: WRLG) is pleased to provide an operations update on restart readiness activities at its 100% owned Madsen Mine project in the Red Lake Gold District of Northwestern Ontario, Canada.

 

 

.

Shane Williams, President and CEO said,

“As we push towards our goal of restarting the Madsen Mine next year, the team continues to make great progress on achieving key operational readiness milestones.

 

“Access development for test mining has been underway since late summer, putting us on the edge of mining. The bulk samples generated through the test mining program will be stockpiled on surface and then batch processed.

 

“Meanwhile the Connection Drift, primary crusher, and camp projects are being completed on schedule while definition drilling and mine planning and optimization continue.

 

“The entire WRLG team has been collectively working towards a successful restart of the Madsen mine. We are now approaching the finish line on many of the fundamental pieces that support this goal, including final optimization on the pre-feasibility study, completing key capital projects, mining our first underground stopes, and starting up the mill.

 

“It is a very exciting time for WRLG as we make the transition from developer to producer.”

 

.

Connection Drift 50% Complete

The Connection Drift, the largest of the capital projects supporting restart of the Madsen Mine, is 50% complete and is on track for completion by the end of March 2025.

The Connection Drift is a 1.2-km haulage way connecting the historic West Portal, which through extensive underground workings provides access to most parts of the Madsen mine including the Austin, South Austin, and McVeigh zones, and the East Portal, a modern portal from which development only extends a modest distance into the North Austin area.

The prior operator developed the East Portal and workings early in its construction effort but soon shifted to the less capital-intensive approach of using the historic West Portal.

.

West Red Lake Gold found notable inefficiencies in using the West Portal for moving mined material, including:

  • The portal is relatively small, limiting hauling to 30-tonne trucks.
  • The haulage ways descending from the West Portal were developed over many years of historic operations; an array of steep sections and sharp corners make the route relatively inefficient for trucking.
  • The route from the portal to the mill crosses two public roads and goes past the town of Madsen. Material must be dumped out of underground haul truck and reloaded into surface-insured trucks and only hauled during daylight hours (because of noise restrictions) to use this route.
  • Much of the resource at Madsen sits spatially under the mill. Moving it west to bring it up through the West Portal and then driving it back east to the mill adds kilometres of trucking distance.

.

The East Portal, by contrast, is a large portal with modern workings. It can accommodate 60-tonne trucks, the haulage route within the mine was designed with efficiency in mind, and the East Portal is beside the primary crusher, which is close to the mill.

The Connection Drift will allow West Red Lake Gold to move all mined material out through the East Portal, eliminating the inefficiencies of the West Portal (which will remain open for ventilation and emergency access).

West Red Lake Gold raised $10 million in Canadian Development Expense flow through funds to finance this major project. Work started in August 2024.

Mines and Money Day 2 Review

Mines and Money London Day 2

The conference seemed busier today, maybe less people watching keynote speakers and circulating around the booth area?

I met six companies today and there are two that I might invest in as a result. Further  research to be done first of course.

Mines and Money London Day 2

The conference seemed busier today, maybe less people watching keynote speakers and circulating around the booth area?

I met six companies today and there are two that I might invest in as a result. Further  research needs to be done first of course, and the current tax loss selling may mean a bit of patience might create a better buyng opportunity.

I always assume all the good news has come out before the conference where you meet a company, so its unlikely for something significant to be released before the first week in January, so there’s no rush to making a decision.

If something is released and the price pops, I don’t like chasing a price up, so will leave, watch, and wait to see if it comes back. There are always other opportuities elsewhere.

 

 

I met a few interesting companies including a couple I may invest in.

Scottie Resources (TSX.V: SCOT)

I have loosely followed the Scottie story for a couple of years because it’s in the Golden Triangle area of British Columbia, and near to the Premier mine of Ascot Resources.

Scottie holds three prospects, Blueberry, Domino, and the past producing Scottie mine zones of the project by the same name. It also holds a couple of other early stage prospects in B.C.

With Ascot having problems filling their mill, Scottie’s projects start to look a whole lot more interesting, as trucking ore to the mill would be both easy and economical.

I am considering investing here.

 

Awale Resources (TSX.V: ARIC)

Is exploring a copper-gold district in the Ivory Coast, one of the few investable jurisidictions remaining in West Africa in my opinion.

Awale has some high-grade gold intercepts including 45.7 gpt Au over 32m! A Maiden resource is expacted in H2 2025.

Newmont is a jv partner and funding exploration on the JV claims, which is something I like as it limits dilution and minimises risk.  Awale is well funded with CAD$10 million in treasury.

I really liked this story and is the other company I am conidering an investment in.

 

Stakeholder Gold (TSX.V: SRC)

Stakeholder is an unusual company in that it owns a traditional gold exploration project in the Yukon, Ballarat Creek, south of Dawson City, but is partially funded by an operating blue quartzite quarry it owns in Brazil.

Our old friend Chris Berlet is the CEO, and his different approach is to minimise dilution by owning an operating company to fund the operating costs of the exploration company, limiting dilution.

This is what he also does in his other company, Canuc Resources, where operating costs are funded by income from Texan gas wells.

I am watching Stakeholder for further news and also how much income is being generated from their Brazilian mines.

 

Stellar Resources (ASX: SRZ)

An Australian tin story, Stellar are developing the Heemskirk Tin Project in Tasmania.

This is the third highest undeveloped tin project globally.

The company are currently at the prefeasability stage, and have A$11 million in cash.

The market cap is only A$43 million at 2.079 billion shares, but there are another 305 million options and performance rights to add to this total, so around 2.4 billion in total.

One for the watchlist, I don’t see any urgency to invest here currently, a long way to go before we get to the exiting bit on the lassonde curve.

 

Cornish Tin (Private)

An interesting meeting about a private tin company with a lithium component, exploring the Wheal Vor Project in Cornwall, UK.

This company now qualify for EIS tax relief on investments into it.

A bit too early stage for me, they predicted some impressive numbers for lithium on their spreadsheet, but that was using a US$20,000 lithium price, around double today’s price.

I prefer companies to use prudent pricing so that didn’t impress me.

Otherwise an interesting company, founder Sally Norcross-Webb in a passionate CEO, and the company are currently running a raise of £3 million, which will be difficult in this environment I think.

Until then no new drilling will take place of course. I want to see them succeed but not sure I will take part in this financing, I fear newsfow will be slow in coming.

 

=======

 

Conclusion.

This year’s Mines and Money was unexciting for me, maybe I’ve attended too many conferences now and they’ve all become too similar?

Over the years I’ve learned to quickly destinguish an exciting company from a greenfield early stage explorer in moose pasture in the backwaters of the Yukon, and sadly conferences seem to attract the latter in much greater numbers then the former.

Although considered a tradeshow, the traditional booth with a table at the front where you could casually engage with the CEO of a company has been replaced with a table and chairs inside the booth, copying Denver Gold and 121’s formats.

The downside of that is you miss the opportunity to engage with a possible gem that you overlooked whilst reviewing participating companies. I have often found a good company with a casual comment at the table, which lead to a more meaningful discussion, and an investment being made.

It’s lost the uniqueness of the show, PDAC is the last man standing of the traditional trade shows, and long may it continue.

Westgold Doubles Bluebird – South Junction Ore Reserve 107% increase in South Junction Ore Reserve to 7.2Mt at 2.5g/t Au for 573koz.

 

.
Perth, Western Australia, 4 December 2024: Westgold Resources Limited (ASX: WGX, TSX: WGX, OTCQX: WGXRF – Westgold or the Company) is pleased to report a 107% increase in the Ore Reserve to 7.2Mtpa at 2.5g/t for 573koz at its Bluebird – South Junction mine near Meekatharra, Western Australia.

 

.
Highlights

Bluebird – South Junction Ore Reserve doubles to 7.2Mt at 2.5g/t Au for 573koz

.■ 107% increase (+296koz) from the August 2024 Ore Reserve – post mining
depletion, demonstrates value enhancement from drilling.
■ Ore Reserve underwritten by updated Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) of 15Mt
at 2.9g/t Au for 1.4Moz – featuring a Measured and Indicated component of 8.7Mt
at 2.9g/t Au for 814koz Au (refer ASX release: “Bluebird – South Junction Mineral
Resource Grows to 1.4Moz”).

.

.

Drilling programmes to be expanded across Bluebird-South Junction mining complex

.■ Surface and underground drill rigs focussed on infill and extension of the
Bluebird – South Junction Mineral Resource. This system remains open at depth,
along strike and down plunge.
■ New drill targets within 2km of Bluebird mill now being sequenced – including
Great Northern Highway (0.4km), Romsey (1.5km) and Ironbark (2.0km).
Mining studies focussed on maximising orebody extraction underway
■ Widths of +20m at South Junction enables Westgold to move to a highly
productive, high tonnage transverse stoping method – the benefits of which will
see production lift during H2 FY25.

.

.
Westgold Managing Director and CEO Wayne Bramwell commented:

“Westgold has delivered a circa 400% increase in the Ore Reserve at Bluebird – South Junction over the past year.

.

“Drilling continues to transform our business, and across the Bluebird-South Junction mining complex we have not yet defined the limits of this ever-expanding system.

.

“Project economics and free cash flow is enhanced by a large, productive underground mine feeding a large processing plant.

 

.

“We have all these ingredients at Meekatharra as the Bluebird South Junction underground mine is the primary ore source feeding the 1.4-1.8M tpa Bluebird processing plant that sits 0.5 km from the portal.

 

.
“With scale comes the opportunity to reduce costs with mine studies to-date showing that the South Junction deposit lends itself to a lower-cost, bulk extraction mining method that will deliver higher ounces-per-vertical metre – underpinning its potential to be a highly effective mining operation on the doorstep of our Meekatharra process plant.

 

.
“Importantly the mineralisation at South Junction remaining open at depth, along strike and down plunge.

 

.
“With multiple surface and underground drill rigs operating, Westgold is confident we will continue to extend and infill the Mineral Resource to further increase the life and expand the scale of this key growth driver in the Murchison.

 

.

“We look forward to providing updates on this work, as well as the ongoing mining studies at Bluebird – South Junction as we further increase outputs to >1.2Mtpa during H2, FY25.”

Mines and Money Day 1 Review

Mines and Money Day 1 Review

The show seemed quiet but the orgaisers claim 2,000 delegates attended, which seems high to me. I cannot see how this number is possibly accurate, there weren’t that many people milling around, and even allowing for a couple of hundred people in the theatre upstairs, many booths were empty as I walked around.

.

I met a few interesting companies including a couple I may invest in.

Impact Minerals (ASX: IPT)

I met Dr. Mike Jones again and it was good to catch up. IPT’s focus now is advancing the Lake Hope High Purity Alumina (HPA) project. Once in production it will probably be the cheapest producer in the world, due to its high purity mot requiring high energy cost processing.

Mining is simple and cheap, requiring literally  an excavator and trock rucks . Mineralisation is from surface.

Catalysts in 2025 include completing a PFS and a pilot plant. I am going to add to my holding.

.

Great Boulder Resources  (ASX: GBR)

GBR typify the problems of the juior miners at the moment. It has a good project in a tier 1 jurisdiction, yet it’s at such an early stage there is little liquidity nor investor interest.

I’ll keep an eye on it but I won’t be investing now due to the reasons stated above.

I feel for CEOs trying in vain to promote good stories such as this to creat market interest, and I’m not sure what the solution is.

.

Exploits Discovery Corp. (CSE: NFLD)

I really like this story, despite the CSE listing. Exploits are focused on their exploration projects which adjoin New Found Gold’s prolific gold belt in Newfoundland Canada. To see the proximity to New Found Gold’s project, please see slide 6 here.

They are well financed, and Eric Sprott is a 15% shareholder. Management are experienced. Sprott is also heavily invested in New Found Gold so it’s easy to see how this may play out in the event Exploits make a significant discovery.

I see a lot to like here, and the full presentation can be found here.  Any familiar with New Found Gold’s story will probably find this of interest.  I am going to review the presentation and my notes again before making a final investment decision.

.

US Gold Corp.  (NASDAQ: USUA)

USUA is listed on the NASDAQ. It has 3 projects in Idaho, Wyoming, and Nevada.

An interesting company and inventive in that they are looking to sell off their waste rock for aggregate, a useful piece of extra revenue generated from what would just be waste rock in other mines.

The share price has been rising for the last year, so I am considering adding to the watchlist.

.

Cornwall Resources (Private)

Cornwall Resources Limited is a wholly owned subsidiary of Strategic Minerals Limited  (AIM: SML) focussed on advancing the high-grade, underground Redmoor Tungsten-Tin-Copper Project, in Cornwall.
 
CRL are currently undertaking a relogging and sampling campaign of historic Redmoor drill core, whilst also working towards securing further funding to advance Redmoor.
It’s the ownership structure I can’t get my head around, wholly owned by SML, but you can also invest in the private company, how does that work? The presenters couldn’t explain it in terms I can understand, even after a couple of attempts. I’m not sure he understood the structure well enough himself to be able to explain it simply.
.
.

Hall of shame   –   Borealis Mining

Kept me waiting for a meeting in the Connect lounge for 30 minutes as a no-show.
Totally wasted my time and not even the courtesy of an apology.
Mines and Money then accused me of missing the meeting, so I corrected them,  and they then offered to re-arrange the meeting for me!
I politely declined, fool me once etc.
As a Nevada based project I would have had a strong interest, but not when management act unprofessionally.
——-
.
.
In conclusion, a decent day for me, and I connected with some interesting investors and had some decent conversations.
I am looking to add to my Impact Minerals holding, and considering an initial investment into Exploits Discovery Corp.

Mines and Money – London

The Resourcing Tomorrow conference as it’s now called begins this morning at the normal venue of the Design Centre at Islington.

 

Due to it’s height, It’s generally a cold walk from Angel tube station, and this year looks like it will be the same. To avoid the registration queues I don’t arrange any early meetings,

 

Looking at the lineup of companies I am struggling to find many I want to meet and consider investing in, so I’ll only be staying for two days.

 

Today I’m only meeting one company from our watchlist, Impact Minerals Ltd. I’m looking forward to connecting with Dr. Mike Jones again, and I’m anxious to learn about the next steps in Impact’s Lake Hope HPA project in Western Australia.

 

Other compoanies I have a meeting with today include Borealis Mining, Cornwall Resources (Private), Exploits Discovery, Great Boulder Resources, and US Gold Corp.

 

So a small, select list, as I just don’t see the point of making meetings for the sake of it just to fill out the day. I also like to have no more then two meetings in a row before having an empty slot to write notes up, have a coffee etc.

 

I’ll write a summary of the first day later.

Gold Road to Benefit from Northern Star Acquisition of De Grey Mining

Comment

This news looks very positive for Gold Road, as a 20% owner of De Grey Mining.

Their stake has just risen by 36%, to around A$1 billion.

This may well allow Gold Road to go on the acquisition trail themselves with this war chest, or will they retain their take in the new company?

Either way I intend to retain my holding.

Gold Road Resources (ASX: GOR) Northern Star has just announced the acquisition of De Grey Mining for A$5 billion, representing a premium of 36% to Friday’s closing price.

Gold Road hold a 20% stake in De Grey Mining.

It will be interesting to see what Gold Road do with their stake in De Grey when it converts to shares in Northern Star, will it sell?  And if so, with 20% of A$5 billion, (A$1 billion), what will they do with the funds?

This looks very positive for Gold Road in my opinion.

We await further developments and announcements with interest.

City Investors Circle Market Review 30th November 2024

 

 

This month’s  highlighted company is G2 Goldfields, whom I met at the SMI Conference in Zurich, after having met them before in London.

The attraction is the high-grade gold on their property, which abuts G Mining Venture’s G4 property, in Guyana.

I feel there is a strong possibility of corporate action with G2, AngloGold have just taken a stake, and G Mining must be a candidate if a takeover battle ensues.

——-

The Trump election victory ended gold’s positive run and mining stocks have fallen back as a result.

The company watchlists had a poor month, with virtually all share prices falling from a month ago, although most have rallied and recovered some of the loss.

Only a few companies remained in positive territory, notably Colonial Coal, Capricorn Metals, and UEC.

G2 Goldfields Provides Update on G3 Spin-Out and Shareholder Meeting Date

 

.

TORONTO, Nov. 29, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — G2 Goldfields Inc. (“G2” or the “Company”) (TSX:GTWO, OTCQX:GUYGF) is pleased to announce that it has filed the requisite notice setting the record and meeting date in respect of an annual and special meeting (the “Meeting”) of shareholders of G2 (the “Shareholders”).

The record date for the determination of Shareholders eligible to attend and vote at the Meeting has been set as December 17, 2024, and the Meeting will be held on January 28, 2025.

.

.

The Proposed Spin-Out

G2 intends to undertake a reorganization transaction (the “Proposed Spin-Out”) whereby it would, among other things, spin-out its non-core assets (the “Non-Core Assets”) into a new wholly owned subsidiary, to be named G3 Goldfields Inc. (“G3”).

The Proposed Spin-Out will be completed by way of a plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement”) under theCanada Business Corporations Actand subject to the terms and conditions of an arrangement agreement (the “Arrangement Agreement”) to be entered into by the Company and G3.

Following completion of the Proposed Spin-out, the Non-Core Assets to be held by G3 will include:

  1. The Tiger Creek Property, Puruni District, Guyana (3,685 acres)
  2. The Peters Mine Property, Puruni District, Guyana (8,316 acres)
  3. The Aremu Mine Property, Cuyuni District, Guyana (8,811 acres)
  4. The Amsterdam Option, Cuyuni District, Guyana (7,148 acres)
  5. The Aremu Partnership (including the historic Wariri Mine), Cuyuni District, Guyana (32,340 acres)

.

G2 believes that its current share price does not fully recognize the value of the Non-Core Assets, and that by completing the Proposed Spin-Out, Shareholders will benefit from unlocking the value of the Non-Core Assets.

Additionally, the Proposed Spin-Out will allow the Company to concentrate its efforts on its OKO project in Guyana, while G3 focuses on the advancement of the Non-Core Assets.

It is intended that, pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions of the Arrangement Agreement, each Shareholder will receive one G3 Share (as defined below) for every two shares of G2 held as of the effective date of the Arrangement.

Only Shareholders as of the close of business on the effective date of the Arrangement will be entitled to shares of G3 (“G3 Shares”) upon closing of the Arrangement.

The Proposed Spin-Out will be subject to G2 entering into the Arrangement Agreement and the Arrangement being approved by Shareholders at the Meeting.

Completion of the Arrangement will also be conditional on the receipt of regulatory and court approval, including, without limitation, the approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange.

It is intended that the G3 Shares will be listed on a recognized Canadian stock exchange and such listing will be subject to G3 fulfilling all of the requirements of such stock exchange.

Initiating coverage – G2 Goldfields (TSX: GTWO)

Following  a recent meeting with management, we are initiating coverage of G2 Goldfields.

G2 has a series of projects in a prolific high-grade gold trend in Guyana, some bordering G Mining Ventures’ project.

Anglogold Ashanti became a shareholder in a recent financing, and I imagine that’s with a view to being at the table when the anticipated bidding war starts.

G2 are preparing a spin-out of G3 Goldfields, so that suggests to me G2 may be the subject of some corporate action in the near term.

G Mining Ventures look to be the most likely suitor so maybe that’s why Anglogold took their stake?

If they take out G2 Anglogold would then be in a position to bid for G Mining and consolidate their projects.

All to play for here, I feel this may be a play in 2025.

Calibre Discovers Significant Gold Mineralization 1,000 metres Beyond the Valentine Gold Mine Resource, Newfoundland & Labrador, Canada; Drilling Intercepts Include 2.43 g/t Gold over 172.8 metres, 2.12 g/t Gold over 95.4 metres and 2.26 g/t Gold over 78.3 metres

 

.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Nov. 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) –  Calibre Mining Corp.(TSX: CXB; OTCQX: CXBMF) (the “Company” or “Calibre”) is pleased to announce initial discovery and resource expansion diamond drill results from its Valentine Gold Mine (“Valentine”) located in Newfoundland & Labrador, Canada.

The program, part of the expanded 100,000 metre drilling initiative (see News Release dated July 15, 2024), is focused on discovering new gold mineralization beyond the known resources on the 250 km2property.

Launched earlier this year, the drilling highlights (see News Release dated June 5, 2024) the vast potential that exists outside of the three pit 2022 Feasibility Studyi, which includes a total of 64.6 Mt grading 1.90 g/t gold containing 3.95 Moz of Measured and Indicated Resources and 20.7 Mt grading 1.65 g/t gold containing 1.10 Moz of Inferred Resources.

These resources are hosted across only 8 km of the highly prospective 32 km long main Valentine Lake Shear Zone (VLSZ).

Drill results include numerous intercepts with visible gold and both high grade intersections and broad zones of continuous mineralization have been identified in several holes, all of which are located outside of known mineral resources.

/

Highlights from the Frank Zone drill program southwest of the Leprechaun pit include:

  • 2.43g/t Au over172.8 metres Estimated True Width (“ETW”) including 3.84g/t Au over 90.9 metres ETW in Hole FZ-24-048;
  • 2.12g/t Au over 95.4 metres ETW in Hole FZ-24-046;
  • 2.26g/t Au over78.3 metres ETW in Hole FZ-24-040;

 

/

Darren Hall, President and Chief Executive Officer of Calibre, stated:

“We acquired the 5-million-ounce Valentine Gold Mine in Canada primarily for its near-term production of approximately 200,000 ounces per year for the first 12 years of its 14-year reserve life.

/

“With construction 85% complete, the funded project remains on schedule for first gold in Q2 2025.

.

“Successfully delivering Valentine will transform Calibre into a mid-tier gold producer with annual production of 450,000 to 500,000 ounces.

.

“Since our initial due diligence in 2024, the team has been extremely excited by the highly prospective district potential of the Valentine Gold Mine property, which has a similar geologic setting to the prolific Val d’Or and Timmins camps in the Abitibi gold belt.

.

“These initial drill results highlight the significant upside potential for further discoveries and resource expansion. Holes FZ-24-048, 2.43 g/t gold over 172.8 metres, and FZ-24-046, 2.12 g/t gold over 95.4 metres, are very encouraging given the grades and widths, with mineralization importantly remaining open laterally, vertically and up-dip.

.

“In just a few months, we’ve discovered broad zones of gold mineralization up to 1,000 metres southwest of the Leprechaun open pit with grades more than 40% above-reserve-grade.

..

“These results are located proximal to the mill, and outside of the mineral resource, which strengthens our confidence that Valentine’s 250 km2land package represents a new gold district.

.

“Furthermore, ongoing drilling northeast of our Marathon deposit is uncovering promising opportunities and identifying several new, high priority targets for exploration.

.

“We are excited about what lies ahead and look forward to sharing more information as we continue the expanded multi-rig drill program and progress construction completion.”

.

.

Tom Gallo, Senior Vice President Strategy and Growth of Calibre, stated:

“The anticipated discovery potential of the orogenic gold setting of the Valentine Gold Mine property is highlighted by today’s drill results.

“Hole FZ-24-040 sits approximately 400 metres along strike to the southwest of the Leprechaun open pit followed by another 450 metre step out in Hole FZ-24-046 and a further 150 metres in Hole FZ-24-048.

“These three intercepts define a 1,000- metre corridor outside of our present mineral resource which is now being defined for future delineation drilling.”

Impact Announces a Maiden Measured Resource for the Lake Hope High Purity Alumina(HPA)Project, WA

 

 

,

Impact Minerals Limited (ASX:IPT). Is pleased to announce a substantial and highgrade maiden Measured Resource estimate for its flagship Lake Hope High Purity Alumina (HPA) Project, located about 500 km east of Perth in Western Australia.
Impact has the right to earn an 80% interest in Playa One Pty Ltd, owner of the Lake Hope project, via an incorporated joint venture by completing a PreFeasibility Study (PFS) currently in progress.
The Measured Resource comprises 730,000 tonnes of lake clay at a grade of 25.8% alumina (aluminium oxide, Al2O3) for a contained 189,000 tonnes of alumina).
A maiden Measured Resource of 730,000 tonnes at 25.8% alumina (Al2O3) for acontained189,000 tonnes of alumina has been defined at the Lake Hope HPA Projectin Western Australia.The Measured Resource supports the first 15 years or more of proposed HPAproduction from Lake Hope. It will underpin a maiden Probable or Proven Reserve,subject to ongoing mining studies, test work, and economic studies to be completedas part of the PreFeasibility Study on Lake Hope.Impact aims to bring Lake Hope into production to deliver lowcost, highmargin endproducts to a rapidly expanding global market. Current prices for benchmark 4N HPA(99.99% Al2O3) and related products are more than US$20,000 per tonne.The PreFeasibility Study will be completed in Q1 2025 after the final reports fromvarious contractors and consultants are received, which are expected in Decemberand January.Following an agreement with the Federal government, the first monies from therecent$2.87 million grant for the CRCP research and development project with CPCEngineering and Edith Cowan University to construct a pilot plant for Lake Hope willbe received by the end of November, a few months ahead of schedule. This willaccelerate the construction of the pilot plant.
The Measured Resource will underpin a maiden Probable or Proven Reserve Statement for an initial mine life of at least 15 years at the proposed benchmark production rate of 10,000 tonnes per annum of High Purity Alumina.
The Reserve Statement is subject to further mining, metallurgical test work and economic studies that are part of the ongoing PFS (ASX Release October 9th 2024).
The larger resource underpins a potentially much longer mine life of at least 25 years, as reported in the Scoping Study on Lake Hope. The study showed that the project had very robust economics, with an aftertax Net Present Value (NPV8) of A$1.3 billion and one of the lowest operating costs per tonne of HPA globally (ASX Release November 9th, 2023).
Impact confirms that all material assumptions underpinning the production target and forecast financial information in the Scoping Study continue to apply.
