Comment

I have always though West Red Lake were a bit too promotional, and now we get the news that a newsletter writer, Gwen Preston, is joining WRLG as an IR person!

They promoted hard last year, and the stock was recently above CAD$1, but it’s slipped back to the mid 60 cent range after the recent raise and “resources not reserves” news release correction, so it looks as though they are about to start promoting hard again.

Only time will tell whether this move will pay off.

VANCOUVER, BC , May 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ – Aris Mining Corporation (Aris Mining or the Company) (TSX: ARIS) (NYSE-A: ARMN) announces that it has entered into a binding agreement with MDC Industry Holding Company LLC (Mubadala), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Abu Dhabi based investment company Mubadala Investment Company PJSC, whereby, subject to certain customary conditions, Aris Mining will acquire an additional 31% joint venture interest in the Soto Norte gold-copper project in Colombia (Soto Norte or PSN) and amend the current Joint Venture Agreement to account for this change in ownership.

Soto Norte is one of the largest undeveloped underground gold projects in South America , set to employ modern and sustainable mining practices.

  • Acquisition of 51% of PSN and Share Exchange : Aris Mining will acquire an additional 31% joint venture interest in PSN from Mubadala, bringing its total ownership to 51%. In exchange, Aris Mining will issue 15,750,000 shares to Mubadala, representing an approximate 9.9% ownership stake based on Aris Mining’s issued and outstanding shares as of March 31, 2024 , with an additional 6,000,000 shares to be issued on receipt of an environmental license for PSN.
  • New, Smaller-Scale Development Plan: Aris Mining has completed optimization studies of a smaller, more efficient development plan for PSN. Key changes include reducing the environmental footprint, building a smaller processing plant with a longer operating life, adopting a flexible mining method to target higher-grade material earlier in the mine life, and installing a paste backfill plant to minimize surface tailings storage requirements.
  • Strategic and Operational BenefitsWith a 51% controlling interest, Aris Mining will integrate the PSN development team into its management structure and procedures, enhancing operational efficiencies and creating synergies.

 

 

.

Aris Mining CEO Neil Woodyer stated:

 

“As the only mining company with operational experience to own and operate Soto Norte, we believe a new, smaller-scale development plan with a reduced environmental footprint is the right path forward.

 

“Aris Mining also plans to incorporate processing solutions for contract mining partners into the design and development of Soto Norte,  following the successful partnership model developed at our Segovia Operations in Colombia .

 

“Based on the attractive results of our preliminary work, we are initiating a Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) of the new development plan, which is expected to be complete by early 2025.

 

In support of this plan, we are delighted to become the 51% controlling shareholder of the Soto Norte joint venture at closing, enabling Aris Mining to develop this very attractive project.”

West Red Lake Gold Intersects 37.33 g/t Au over 2.79m and 5.26 g/t Au over 9.0m at North Austin Zone – Madsen Mine

 

.

.

.

West Red Lake Gold Mines Ltd.  (TSXV: WRLG)(OTCQB: WRLGF) (“West Red Lake Gold” or “WRLG” or the “Company”)  is pleased to report drill results from its 100% owned Madsen Mine located in the Red Lake Gold District of Northwestern Ontario, Canada.

This round of drill results from the Madsen Mine were all drilled from underground on theNorth Austin Zone, which represents a new area of high-grade mineralization extending the current Madsen resource to the northeast. This program was designed to expand the North Austin zone down-plunge to the northeast.

There are three main plunge lines (ore shoots) that the team is targeting at North Austin, and the results in this press release have demonstrated down-plunge continuity on the order of 30 meters (“m”) within at least one of these ore shoots.

The North Austin Zone sits adjacent to existing underground development marking it as a high caliber, near-surface target that could potentially be developed early during future mine restart and production. The North Austin Zone remains open down-plunge and along strike to the northeast and will continue to be a priority expansion target as underground drilling continues.

.

.

HIGHLIGHTS:

  • Hole MM24X-03-5127-010 Intersected 2.79m @ 37.33 grams per tonne gold (“g/t Au”), from 124.21m to 127m, Including 1.0m @ 88.06 g/t Au, from 125.21m to 126.21m.
  • Hole MM24X-03-5127-011 Intersected9.02m @ 5.26 g/t Au, from 53.06m to 62.08m, Including 0.88m @ 22.34 g/t Au, from 58m to 58.88m, also Including 0.5m @ 26.18 g/t Au, from 61.08m to 61.58m; And 2.54m @ 5.21 g/t Au, from 118.46m to 121m; Including 0.61m @ 16.60 g/t Au, from 118.96m to 119.57m.
  • Hole MM24X-03-5127-007 Intersected 1.57m @ 25.12 g/t Au, from 128m to 129.57m, Including1.0m @ 31.47 g/t Au, from 128m to 129m.
  • Hole MM24X-03-5127-001 Intersected 2m @ 9.5 g/t Au, from 72m to 74m, Including 1.0m @ 17.94 g/t Au, from 73m to 74m.

.

.

.

Shane Williams, President & CEO, stated,

“It’s very encouraging to see the North Austin drilling beginning to deliver on expectations.

 

“Defining new areas of mineralization outside of, but adjacent to, the known deposit will continue to be a priority at Madsen and further solidifies our strategy with continuing to de-risk the asset while also taking full advantage of high-grade, near-mine organic growth opportunities.”

Gold Road Rises on Potential Bid Target Rumours

Gold Road Resources (ASX: GOR)

Comments in the Australian media are suggesting Gold Road may have appointed a capital advisor, possibly McQuarie Capital, as a defence advisor, to defend a possible bid for the company.

Gold Road Rises on Potential Bid Target Rumours

 

Gold Road Resources (ASX: GOR) has become the subject of speculation in the Australian media, where The Australian is suggesting that it may have appointed a capital advisor, possibly Macquarie Capital, as a defence advisor, to defend a possible bid for the company.

The share price rose over 5% in trading on the ASX on Monday as investors reacted to the speculation.

Given the success of Gold Road’s JV with Gold Fields at Gruyere, their significant cash holding, plus a 17% shareholding in De Grey Mining, and another in IGO, it is not a surprise to me that it may be a potential bid target. The only surprise for me is that it has not happened before.

The most obvious suitor would be, in my opinion, Gold Fields themselves, as it would give them 100% ownership of Gruyere, plus the large exploration package surrounding the mine currently owned 100% by Gold Road.

There could of course be others enviously looking at the attractive package of cash in the bank, the free cashflow being generated from Gruyere, plus the value of their shareholdings in De Grey and IGO.

Interestingly Gold Road was involved in a bid to purchase 40% of the Greenstone Mine in Canada very recently, and one wonders whether that may have been an attempt to deter a bid for themselves?

 

——-

 

There is clearly a lag between the rising price of gold and the value of the gold producers themselves, which seems to have given some urgency to companies in a position to make opportunistic bids before the gold producers’ valuations start to catch up.

The rumours regarding a potential bid for Gold Road seem to fall into that category, in my opinion.

The next few weeks may be interesting.

Mining Review 19th May 2024

Mining Review 19th May 2024

Gold recorded its highest ever (nominal) price this week, $2,413!  Silver also shot up, outpacing gold in percentage terms, and closed at $31.46.

Cornish Metals’ share price was pummelled, forcing a “we know of no reason” RNS from the company, which hardly helped.

City Investors Circle Mining Review 19th May 2024

Gold recorded its highest ever (nominal) price this week, $2,413!  This needs to be compared to the inflation adjusted record price for gold, which is equal to over US$3,300, so we still have a way to go to reach that high point.

Silver also shot up, outpacing gold in percentage terms, and closed at $31.46.

The gold silver ratio fell over 8% during the week.

Base metals are also strongly up with a “copper squeeze” taking place at the NY Comex, forcing traders to desperately look for scarce physical supply for delivery, forcing the price higher.

The disconnect or “gap” between the London LME copper price and the Comex price was over $1,000 earlier this week, and is still around half that, which is without precedent.

The price of manganese is soaring, up around 25% last week, after a rail incident in Gabon temporaily prevented exports from their port, and a cyclone incident in Australia preventing exports at the same time.

——-

Cornish Metals’ share price was pummelled, forcing a “ we know of no reason” RNS from the company which hardly helped in the UK, but did in Canada after the UK closed, trading over 28 million shares, or around C$2.8 million in a single trading day! Normal daily volumes are a fraction of that.

I strongly suspect that there is some bad news lurking somewhere, or the company are trying to raise funds, and the book building has not gone well.

Having announced they know of no reason, management cannot now release bad news straight away of course, but there is clearly a reason why the stock has sold off so dramatically in recent days. I suspect the market will remain spooked until the reason for the fall becomes apparent.

I still wonder about the reason for the sudden resignation of CEO Richard Williams in March?

——-

Looking at the news generated from our watchlist this week, it was mainly Q1 reporting, but the main story was that West Red Lake Gold Mines had to clarify they have resources and not reserves at Madsen, a very embarrassing thing to have to admit.

The price, recently over C$1, is now back in the mid 60 cent range, and you wonder how much confidence has been lost in management? I still haven’t bought despite intending to, as I don’t like chasing a share price, and I’m relieved I didn’t now!

This was on the back of the Red Pine scandal where the former CEO has been accused of “manipulating drill results before updating the company database“, see HERE.

This is similar to Bre-X, and I’m shocked this can still occur after all the checks that were supposed to be in place post that scandal. Surely the geologists should also have received the results and scrutinised them at the same time as the CEO?

I’m surprised this has not attracted more media attention, I guess the exchange doesn’t want this destrying confidence in the market and 43-101 process.

CORNISH METALS’ RESPONSE TO SHARE PRICE MOVEMENT

Vancouver, May 16, 2024

Cornish Metals Inc.(AIM/TSX-V: CUSN)(“Cornish Metals” or the “Company”) notes the recent decline in its share price and confirms it is unaware of any operational or corporate reason for the price movement.

OnApril 30, 2024the Company reported a positive independent Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) for its 100% owned South Crofty tin project located in Cornwall, United Kingdom.

The PEA validates South Crofty’s economic viability, producing a base case after-tax Net Present Value (“NPV”) of US$201 million and Internal Rate of Return (“IRR”) of 29.8%, and confirms the Project’s potential to be a low-cost and long-life tin mining operation with a current 14-year life of mine (“LOM”). A recording of management’s May 1, 2024 detailed presentation of the PEA can be found on the Cornish Metals website or by following thislink.

A technical report documenting the PEA and prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 is well underway and will be filed on SEDAR+ within 45 days of the April 30th2024 news release.

As noted onApril 16, 2024, ongoing project activities at South Crofty include refurbishment of New Cook’s Kitchen (“NCK”) mine shaft, mine dewatering, treatment of mine water through the Water Treatment Plant (“WTP”), and exploration drilling of the Wide Formation.

The Company will release its unaudited financial statements and management discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) for the three months ended March 31, 2024 by May 23, 2024.

.

 

Ken Armstrong, Interim CEO of Cornish Metals, commented:

“The Company is unaware of any reason for the selling pressure on the Cornish Metals share price this week.

 

“We believe the PEA reported on April 30, 2024 is robust and represents a strong foundation for further evaluation of the South Crofty tin project.

 

“South Crofty is fully permitted for mining through to 2071 and has planning permission in place to construct a process plant and other surface facilities on Company owned land adjacent to New Cook’s Kitchen shaft. South Crofty is a strategic high-grade tin asset that is well positioned to take advantage of the strong demand for tin, which we believe due to its critical nature and continued supply uncertainty, is likely to continue to trade above the PEA tin price assumption of US$31,000 per tonne.”

CALIBRE CONTINUES STRONG PROGRESS AT THE FULLY FUNDED VALENTINE GOLD MINE; CONSTRUCTION 64% COMPLETE, ENGINEERING 98% COMPLETE, OPERATIONAL LEADERSHIP HIRED, PRE-COMMISSIONING UNDERWAY, ON TRACK FOR Q2 2025 GOLD PRODUCTION

 

/

May 14, 2024

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, May 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Calibre Mining Corp. (TSX: CXB; OTCQX: CXBMF) (“Calibre” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce a construction and capital cost update on the Valentine Gold Mine (“Valentine” or “VGM”), located in the central region of Newfoundland & Labrador, Canada. All figures in Canadian Dollars (“C$”) unless otherwise stated.

.

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

“I am pleased to announce that construction of our fully funded Valentine Gold Mine is 64% complete and we have progressed detailed engineering to 98% from 60%, with the later having formed the basis of the previously disclosed Marathon Gold capital estimates.

“With the first gold pour scheduled in Q2 2025, the delivery of Valentine is a paradigm shift for Calibre as we transition to a quality mid-tier gold producer unlocking significant value for all stakeholders.

“Since acquiring Valentine in January 2024 we have re-baselined the project schedule, significantly progressed detailed engineering, awarded all major contracts, connected site to permanent power, delivered critical path items including mills and motors, employed the operations leadership team, and commenced pre-commissioning and commissioning activities.

“Our project optimization and derisking efforts, combined with accelerating a portion of Phase 2 expansion capital, results in an initial capital cost of C$653 million, a C$145 million increase over Marathon Gold’s Q3 2023 update.

“With a C$279 million cost to complete as of April 30, 2024 and approximately C$400 million of cash and restricted cash, we are fully funded. In addition, the Company has substantial cash flows from operations.

“I am confident the Valentine gold property has district-scale potential, and we anticipate accelerating our exploration efforts in the near term. The Valentine Gold Mine and surrounding property offers a robust resource base and significant discovery opportunities with an extremely prospective array of exploration targets with similar geology to the prolific Val-d’Or and Timmins camps in the Abitibi gold belt.”

.

.

Initial Capital Cost Update

  • First gold production scheduled for Q2 2025;
  • Updated initial capital cost estimate of C$653 million, an increase of C$145 million versus last reported C$508 million by Marathon Gold Corporation (“Marathon”) in Q3 2023;
  • The updated estimate is consistent with Calibre’s pre-acquisition due diligence and consists of three primary components:
    • Marathon’s Schedule and Cost Underestimation of C$70 million;
    • Calibre’s Project Optimization & Derisking of C$40 million; and
    • Calibre Advancing Operations & Phase 2 Expansion Capital of C$35 million
  • With a C$279 million cost to complete as of April 30, 2024 and approximately C$400 million of cash and restricted cash, we are fully funded. In addition, the company has substantial cash flows from operations.

FIRST QUARTER 2024 HIGHLIGHTS

.

GOLD PRODUCTION AND SALES

  • Pre reported Q1 2024 production of 36,147 gold ounces decreased 9% from 39,827 ounces in the first quarter of 2023, and 10% compared to production of 40,295 ounces in the fourth quarter of 2023 (“the previous quarter”). Production was negatively impacted by wet weather experienced across all three operating sites during the quarter and a regional interruption to state grid power impacting the Lakewood mill and Beta Hunt mine, affecting gold ounces produced. Gold sales for Q1 2024 were strong at 40,343 ounces, an increase of 12% compared to Q1 2023 and 8% higher than the previous quarter.

.

COSTS ON TRACK TO ACHEIVE WITH 2024 GUIDANCE

  • Cash operating costs1 and AISC1 per ounce sold for Q1 2024 averaged US$1,193 and US$1,285, respectively, versus US$1,272 and US$1,435, respectively, for Q4 2023. The lower costs compared to the prior quarter primarily reflects the impact of higher nickel by-product credits ($2.91 million or US$54/oz nickel by-product credits in the current quarter compared to $0.3 million US$5/oz for the final quarter of 2023). The higher by-product credits reflect recommencement of nickel sales in the first quarter.

.

  • Revenue in Q1 2024 totaled $115.5 million, a new quarterly record for the Company and 19% higher than the first quarter of 2023 and 14% from the previous quarter. The increase compared to both prior quarters reflected higher realized gold price and higher sales volumes.

SOLID OPERATING CASH FLOW GENERATION

  • Q1 2024 cash flow provided by operating activities of $42.6 million versus $20.9 million in the first quarter of 2023 and $32.1 million the previous quarter, driven by the improved gold sales volume and realized price.
  • Cash at March 31, 2024 of $87.3 million was an increase of $4.8 million or 6% from $82.5 million at December 31, 2023.

.

  • Net earnings for Q1 2024 of $2.1 million ($0.01 per share) compared to net loss of $2.9 million ($0.02 per share) for the same period in 2023 and net loss of $1.7 million ($0.01 per share) in the fourth quarter of 2023.

Gold Road Lowers De Grey Mining percentage Stake

 

/Gold Road Resources (ASX: GOR) has announced its intention to participate in the De Grey Mining A$600 million financing announced recently.

But, It will participate for only A$50.8, million, which will dilute its percentage holding by around 2.9% to just over 17%.

Although Gold Road boasts a treasury of some A$146 million, it would have needed to invest A$119 million to maintain its 19.9% stake in De Grey.

This suggests they might possibly have another investment in mind, as they recently failed to purchase a 40% stake in the Greenstone Gold Mine in Canada, and may already have a plan B.

At the current price of Gold, the De Grey Hemi mine will repaid in around two years.

Hemi, once built, will be in the top 5 largest Australian gold mines.
