Market Review for December 2024 has been published.

The highlighted company is Awale Resources.

Ora Banda Mining was the biggest riser of the year at 207%.

We review the top tier watchlist of producing gold miners and an average gain of 70% over 2024, whilst the gold price rose 27%.

We maintain our stance on producing gold miners as being the place to invest in 2025 given the high gold price driving additional revenue to the bottom line.

• Initial grade control drilling confirms multiple mineralised lodes per level, including highgrade lodes in addition to bulk tonnage opportunities
• Surface Diamond Drilling extends and enhances 090 lodes in northern Sand King

.
Ora Banda Mining Limited (ASX: OBM) (“Ora Banda”, “Company”) is pleased to provide an update on its Sand King Underground mine which forms part of the Davyhurst Gold Project and together with the Riverina Underground are the centrepiece of the Company’s DRIVE TO 150 Project with an annual production outlook of 140,000oz to 160,000oz in FY26.

Sand King has achieved its first major milestone, intersecting multiple ore lodes in the first crosscut on the 315 Level. This is in line with internal planning and the mine remains on track to deliver first stoping ore in the March-25 Quarter.

Steady state production of ~60kozpa is expected to commence in the June-25 Quarter.

——-

Since the establishment of the Sand King portal in late August this year, mine development has advanced on schedule and in good ground conditions with 427 decline metres and a total of 835 development metres achieved to date.

Underground diamond drilling for grade control is also underway at the mine with the rig completing 5,477 metres to date of the planned 45,400 metre program.

This initial program has confirmed multiple discrete high grade lodes and additional bulk tonnage opportunities at Sand King.

.

Significant grade control results to date include:

o 6.0m @ 9.5 g/t Inc. 3.5m @ 13.7 g/t o 1.3m @ 17.6 g/t Inc. 1.0m @ 21.9 g/t
o 2

——-

The Company also recently conducted a small surface exploration drilling program at Sand King North. This 6-hole program targeted high-grade East-West ore structures and successfully infilled and extended the known lodes along strike.

Intercepts included:

o 8.0m @ 5.4 g/t Inc. 2.7m @ 13.6 g/t o 2.4m @ 11.5 g/t Inc. 0.4m @ 48.0 g/t
o 1.0m @ 31.3 g/t Inc. 0.5m @ 61.0 g/t o 2.2m @ 10.9 g/t Inc. 1.9m @ 11.9 g/t
o 13.6m @ 2.3 g/t Inc. 0.4m @ 13.4 g/t o 8.3m @ 2.9 g/t Inc. 0.5m @ 10.7 g/t

Ora Banda’s Managing Director, Luke Creagh commented on the progress at Sand King

“Reaching first ore at the Sand King Underground mine is exciting, especially considering that this milestone has been achieved less than 4 months after establishing the portal, and 14 months after the first drill hole targeting underground was completed.

“The grade control and surface drilling has confirmed, enhanced and extended known mineralisation and we consider this to be at the early stages of unlocking the full potential of the Sand King mineralised system.

“As the ounce production from Sand King increases month-on-month, we are set up for a strong second half of the financial year. The combination of Riverina and Sand King high-grade ore delivers a step change to our production profile and cashflows, with a production outlook of 140,000oz to 160,000oz in FY26.”

Mining Review 8th September 2024

The major news this week was Ascot Resources placing their mine into care and maintenance so soon after opening the mine for production.

G Mining Ventures declared commercial production at TZ, and Westgold commenced mining at South Junction.

City Investors Circle MIning Review 8th September 2024

.

The major news this week was Ascot Resources placing their mine into care and maintenance so soon after opening the mine for production. This came as a complete shock, and I sold my shares in the company immediately.

By being in the UK I was able to steal a march on Canadian investors who woke up to the news that I had already digested, and I managed to sell at the open in the 20s before the share price crashed to 16 cents.

This is the second time Ascot has disappointed, and the last for me. They are indicating they need to raise yet more funds!  Sprott, who are a major investor, must be very disappointed.

The CEO needs to walk, and they need to bring in an experienced CEO in my opinion.

Ascot represented less than 1% of my portfolio, but a loss still hurts

——-

G Mining Ventures declared commercial production at TZ, showing how an experienced mamagement team handle a mining startup, please note Ascot!

Westgold commenced mining at South Junction in Western Australia.

Minera Alamos continue to struggle, as their latest Q2 finacial update confirms, so glad I bailed out of this when I did. I notice many newsletter writers are still onboard here, despite all the losses.

Excellent Drill Intercepts Highlight Riverina’s High-Grade and Consistency
Sand King Portal Established and Mining Underway Riverina Underground Mine
• Latest infill drilling results from Riverina underground confirm the consistency and highgrade nature of the Riverina ore lodes
• Results from 122 holes intersected significant gold intercepts above 10 gram metres on 102 occasions and included 45 intercepts over 20 gram metres
• A second underground diamond rig is scheduled to start mid-September to accelerate
resource extension and exploration drilling
• Two surface exploration rigs are scheduled to start early in the December-Quarter to
explore for southern extensions and depth extensions (Figure 5)
• Mining at Riverina remains on track with development and stoping performance in line
with expectations (See Figures 2 to 4)
• Significant intercepts from grade control infill drilling continue to demonstrate the highgrade and consistent nature of the Riverina main lodes, including:
o 2.7m @ 65.9g/t Inc. 2.1m @ 85.6g/t o 5.4m @ 6.4 g/t
o 4.4m @ 22.1 g/t Inc. 2.8m @ 33.6 g/t o 1.5m @ 23.2 g/t

The mine also continues to be the focus of increased exploration as Ora Banda seeks to test mineralisation extensions to the south-west and north-east.

Latest infill drilling up to July 2024 has provided excellent results and confirm the consistency and high-grade nature of the Riverina ore lodes. The results from 122 holes intersected significant gold intercepts above 10 gram metres on 102 occasions and included 45 intercepts over 20 gram metres.

A second underground diamond rig is scheduled to start mid-September to accelerate resource extension and exploration drilling plus two surface exploration rigs are
scheduled to start early in the December-24 Quarter to explore for southern extensions and depth extensions.

Mining operations have commenced at the Sand King underground mine with the portal
established and mine development underway. The decline is advancing well in good ground conditions and recruitment of specialty management and technical staff is well on track.

At Sand King, first development ore is expected in the December-24 quarter and first stoping ore in the March-25 Quarter with steady state of 60k ozpa commencing in the June-25 Quarter.

.
Ora Banda’s Managing Director, Luke Creagh, said:

“As mining and drilling progresses at Riverina, our confidence is growing that we are only at the very early stages in unlocking what is presenting as a large and high-grade system.

 

“The addition of a second underground diamond rig as well as two surface drill rigs in the coming months is an exciting catalyst for the next wave of drill results as we target material extensions to the current Riverina system.

 

“Commencing Sand King is also an exciting time for the Company, demonstrating commitment to our strategy and placing us on the path to deliver 140,000 to 160,000oz in FY26.”

City Investors Circle Monthly Review May 2024

The highlighted company is Ora Banda Mining, in production in Western Australia, looking ot increase gold production  from 70,000 Oz PA to 100,000 Oz PA in 2025.

Ora banda has a 110 KM trend with a “string of pearls” of targets, and are looking to pivot to underground mining for higher grades and lower costs.

AISC is around A$2,400, and the gold price in Australia is currently A$3,550, so plenty of cashflow to expand exploration and develop their other projects..
