irkland Lake Gold’s (TSX: KL; NYSE: KL) proposed $4.9-billion all-share acquisition of Detour Gold (TSX: DGC) and its open-pit mine in northeastern Ontario will add 15.4 million oz. gold, or eight years, to Kirkland Lake’s mineral reserve base, and lift the company’s annual gold production to 1.5 million ounces.

Kirkland Lake Gold’s Macassa mine in northern Ontario and Fosterville mine in Australia — two of the highest-grade mines in the world — are on track to produce a total of between 950,000 and 1 million oz. gold in 2019, and the Detour Lake gold mine produces about 600,000 oz. gold a year. It has a 23-year mine life based on a revised life-of-mine plan in April 2018.

If the transaction is completed, Kirkland Lake will have net cash of US$630 million. The combined assets will generate free cash flow this year of almost US$700 million, based on analyst consensus, and Kirkland Lake says it expects to see pre-tax synergies of between US$75 million and $100 million per year.

Post-merger, Kirkland Lake and Detour Gold shareholders will own 73% and 27% of the larger company.

Under the deal, shareholders of Detour Gold will receive 0.4343 of a Kirkland Lake common share, representing a 24% premium to Detour Gold’s closing share price on Nov. 22, and a 29% premium to its 20-day volume-weighted average price.

Kirkland Lake Gold president and CEO Tony Makuch notes that the company will optimize Detour’s operations and start engineering work to evaluate expansion opportunities, which he says could lead to production growth, improved unit costs and higher levels of reserves and resources.

“We have already taken two mining operations, Macassa and Fosterville, and transformed them into high-quality assets that generate industry-leading earnings and free cash flow,” Makuch said in a statement. (During the first nine months of this year, Kirkland Lake has produced 695,000 oz. gold at

n the latest megadeal sweeping the gold sector, Zijin Mining Group is buying Continental Gold (TSX: CNL; US-OTC: CGOOF) for $1.4 billion in cash.

The Chinese gold miner is on an acquisition spree. In early November, it said it would buy coppergold assets in Serbia from Freeport McMoRan (NYSE: FCX) for up to US$390 million, and it bought Nevsun Resources for US$1.86 billion just over a year ago.

The Continental purchase will increase Zijin’s gold reserves to more than 2,000 tonnes it said.

“Continental’s 100%-owned Buritica project in Antioquia, Colombia, is one of the largest and highest See CONTINENTAL / 2

average cash costs of US$296 per oz. and all-in sustaining costs of US$584 per ounce.)

“The addition of Detour Lake provides an opportunity to add a third cornerstone asset that is located in our backyard in northern Ontario,” Makuch said, noting that exploration at Detour will be a “key component” of its corporate exploration program.

The Detour mine in the Abitibi Greenstone Belt sits on a 1,040 sq. km land position, where Kirkland Lake expects to run extensive drilling at “highly prospective exploration targets.”

Du r i ng a conference ca l l, Makuch noted that $40 million

had been spent on exploration at Detour over the last five years, and that Kirkland Lake “can see spending that amount of money every year.

“There’s potential to find new deposits in this region, and not far from the Detour mill.”

He also dismissed concerns that acquiring a higher-cost, open-pit mine would hurt Kirkland Lake’s premium multiple, which has been based on the strong margins it generates from the Fosterville and Macassa underground mines. “They all have a lot in common,” he said of the three assets. “They’re all good businesses that make money.”

Detour Gold’s CEO, Mick Mc-

PM40069240

Mullen, told analysts and investors on the call that the business combination creates “a lot of benefits that just aren’t available to us on a stand-alone basis.”

Since he joined Detour, McMullen said, he had “been out and spoken to a lot of our shareholders and asked them what they want out of the business, and it has been an almost universal view that this asset shouldn’t be sitting in a single-asset structure over the medium-term, so what this transaction does is it eliminates the single asset risk that our shareholders have been quite vocal about.”

The board of directors of each company have approved the arrangement. Shareholder meetings are planned, and the transaction could close before the end of January 2020.

The deal comes with a US$148million termination fee payable to Kirkland Lake if Detour walks away, and a US$202-million break fee payable to Detour Gold if Kirkland Lake does the same.

grade gold projects in the world, and represents a highly complementary addition to Zijin’s international asset portfolio,” Zijin chairman Chen Jinghe stated.

Buritica is expected to pour gold in the first half of 2020, with average annual production of 250,000 oz. gold over 14 years at all-in sustaining costs of US$600 per ounce.

Chen also noted that Continental “holds a sizeable and highly prospective land package in Colombia that combined with the Buritica project provides Zijin with the leading position in an emerging world-class, gold-producing region.”

Under the deal, Zijin will pay $5.50 for each share of Continental — a 29% premium over the Canadian junior’s 20-day, volume-weighted

average price.

Newmont Goldcorp (TSX: NGT; NYSE: NEM) has agreed to sell its 19.9% stake in Continental to Zijin for US$260 million.

Directors and senior management holding 1.6% of Continental’s shares have also entered into voting and support agreements with Zijin, one of China’s largest gold producers.

“It was a hard decision for us as a company, but we felt it was the right time to sell before production commences,” Ari Sussman, Continental’s CEO, tells The Northern Miner. “If you look at the list of single-asset producers over the last few years that have gone into commercial production, there are inevitable problems that occur in ramp-up that result in general dilution to shareholders.

Therefore, when the board weighed the risk and reward ratio, we did

“WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT THE LIST OF COMPANIES WITH THE ABILITY TO BID CASH WITHOUT GOING INTO DEBT YOU CAN COUNT THEM ON ONE HAND.” ARI SUSSMAN CEO, CONTINENTAL GOLD

feel it was a good time to bring in a seasoned operator with deep pockets to take over the production and advance it into the production phase.”

Sussman also said the fact that it

is an all-cash bid is attractive.

“When you think about the list of companies with the ability to bid cash without going into debt you can count them on one hand,” he says.

“So it’s superior to an all-share bid, where historically we have seen the premium quickly disintegrate in a few days after the bid is announced.”

Sussman notes that the financial risk is also low, given that Zijin recently closed an equity financing of over US$1 billion.

In addition, the mining executive pointed to Zijin’s track record at its various operations around the globe.

“My understanding is that it’s the fastest growing large-scale mining company in the world,” he noted.

“They are not looking to replace our team but rather they’re buying our team and looking to utilize the success we have had by carrying it

forward.”

A shareholder vote on the transaction will be held in January 2020.

Continental discovered Buritica next to a gold-rich mountain in the Andes, 72 km from Medellin, Colombia’s second-largest city, in 2008.

The Zijin transaction is one of many M&A deals this year, after Kirkland Lake Gold’s proposed (TSX: KL; NYSE: KL) $4.9-billion acquisition of Detour Gold (TSX: DGC) in late November and the US$6.5-billion merger of Barrick Gold (TSX: ABX; NYSE: GOLD) and Randgold Resources, and Newmont’s US$10-billion acquisition of Goldcorp.

At press time, Continental’s shares were up 10% — or 49¢ — to $5.36, with 18 million shares traded.

The company has a $1.1-billion market capitalization. TNM

Makuch said the two companies started talks in August.

Analysts expressed a mixture of views.

“While the valuation of Kirkland Lake’s offer looked reasonable based on the pre-announced price of Kirkland Lake, it would appear that Kirkland Lake shareholders are less enthusiastic about the offer than either management or the board of directors, and the effective valuation of Detour Gold in the current market is well behind our target price,” Barry Allan of Laurentian Bank Securities writes in a research note to clients. “We believe the Kirkland Lake shareholder may be having a difficult time understanding the shift of being a high-grade underground producer of gold, to now adding a large, low-grade, open-pit mine to the operating mix. The worry would be that post-merger, Kirkland Lake loses its premium valuation for being a high-grade company.”

Kerry Smith of Haywood Securities says the deal is earlier than he would have liked, as Detour “was starting to deliver on the efficiency and cost synergies and probably needs another 12 to 18 months to get the operation running close to optimal,” but recommends Detour shareholders approve the deal, and argues that Kirkland Lake can extract more value from the mine.

“We expect the Detour mine can realize 15% reductions in unit costs

“KIRKLAND LAKE ... COULD EASILY FUND ANY CONTEMPLATED MILL EXPANSION QUICKER THAN DETOUR COULD ON IT’S OWN.” KERRY SMITH ANALYST, HAYWOOD SECURITIES

and if Kirkland Lake, with its much stronger balance sheet, is able to accelerate a plant expansion, the mine could easily realize a +20% increase in throughput over time as well, leading to strong cash flow for +20 years.

“Kirkland Lake plans on evaluating possible expansion opportunities of the Detour mill that could bring value forward, something that Detour was not considering on its own as Detour was only focused on mill throughput gains from the existing plant, which minimized new capital expenditures,” Smith explains.

“Kirkland Lake does not have these capital constraints and if warranted could easily fund any contemplated mill expansion quicker than Detour could on its own.”

The analyst also notes Detour generated US$246 million in cash flow during the first nine months of 2019, while Macassa contrib-

uted US$170 million and Fosterville US$530 million.

“Detour is a strong cash-flowgenerating mine and while some multiple erosion is likely, we think the market is overly pessimistic on this deal.”

Smith also says there is “very low probability” of a competing offer.

“Any new suitor would also likely need to put a substantial cash component into any bid, which likely eliminates Agnico Eagle given their lack of cash today and aversion to taking on significant new debt.”

Cosmos Chiu of CIBC isn’t ruling out a competing offer.

“Now that Detour is in play, we believe there is possibility of other suitors for Detour, including some Australian companies with openpit experience looking for a toehold in Canada. With that said, the $148-million termination fee could be a deterrent.”

Over the last three years, shares of Kirkland Lake have climbed more than 800%.

Kirkland Lake Gold’s shares finished the day down 17.3%, or $10.94 per share, at $52.38, with 4.9 million shares traded. Over the last year, its shares have moved within a range of $25.23 to $67.87.

The news sent shares of Detour Gold up 1.80%, or 40¢ per share, to finish the day at $22.61, on 7.6 million shares traded. Detour shares have traded in a range of $9.55 to $22.61 per share over the last 52 weeks. TNM

Newmont Goldcorp to sell Red Lake to Evolution Mining ONTARIO

| Famed asset fetches US$375 million, plus up to US$100 million more, contingent on future finds

BY TRISH SAYWELL

tsaywell@northernminer.com

ustralia’s Evolution Mining (ASX: EVN) has agreed to buy Newmont Goldcorp’s (TSX: NGT; NYSE: NEM) Red Lake complex in Ontario for US$375 million in cash and contingent payments of up to another US$100 million tied to resource discoveries.

Evolution has committed to invest US$100 million on the existing operations and another US$50 million on exploration over three years.

The underground gold mining complex in Ontario has produced over 25 million oz. gold at an average grade of more than 20 grams gold per tonne since it started commercial production in 1949.

The operation is made up of the Red Lake and Campbell complexes, which each consist of an underground mine and processing facility, and the Cochenour mine.

This year the Red Lake complex is expected to produce 150,000 to 160,000 oz. gold at an all-in sustaining cost (AISC) of US$1,600 per ounce.

Last year the complex produced 276,000 oz. gold at AISCs of US$988 per ounce.

Evolution Mining notes the drop in production and higher costs expected this year are due to Newmont

Goldcorp’s limited investment on development capital during the year “pending the outcome of the sale process.”

The company also pointed out that there was a three-month pause in operations at the Cochenour mine due to water ingress mitigation.

Evolution said its commitment to spend US$100 million on the asset over the next three years “is expected to see the operation recover from this temporary decline in production.”

The company also plans to drill 100,000 metres a year in 2020–2022.

The highest-priority targets, Evolution says, are the Upper Main zone and INCO at Cochenour, the Aviation complex at Red Lake and HG Young, which is 1 km north of Campbell.

“The small footprint of Red Lake’s historic, high-grade orebodies enhances the potential for further discoveries within the complex,” Evolution stated.

Under the US$100-million contingent payment, Evolution will pay Newmont Goldcorp US$20 million for each 1 million oz. of new gold resources it adds to the Red Lake

resource base over 15 years. The payment applies to the first 5 million oz. of new resources.

Evolution, which owns five mines in Australia, will pay for the acquisition from a new five-year, A$600million (US$400-million) term loan from a syndicate of banks.

Brian MacArthur of Raymond James says the price is “reasonable,” and the contingent payment “provides Newmont with exposure to future discoveries.”

“Over the past several years, we believe Newmont has done a good job of restructuring its portfolio and

improving its operational excellence, and offers investors exposure to gold through a lower-jurisdictional-risk, global portfolio that generates solid cash f low and is supported by a strong balance sheet,” he says. “In addition, it is the only S&P-listed gold stock.”

Jackie Przybylowski of BMO Capital Markets notes the valuation is in line with her estimates and says the sale was expected.

“It was well-telegraphed by the company,” she writes in a note. “In general, Newmont Goldcorp had indicated when the combination of these two companies was first announced in January 2019 that it would target US$1 billion to US$1.5 billion in asset divestitures over 2019 and 2020. Divestment of Red Lake specifically was also anticipated — NEM president and incoming CEO Tom Palmer noted in September that portfolio optimization would include [the] potential sale of Red Lake.”

The analyst has an “outperform” rating on Newmont Goldcorp and a one-year target price of US$50 per share.

At press time, the company was trading at US$37.83 per share within a 52-week range of US$29.77 to US$41.23.

Newmont Goldcorp has a US$31billion market capitalization. TNM

JOINT VENTURE ARTICLE

Automation yields increased productivity, safety at New Afton An automated loading solution has enabled Canada’s only block cave mine to mitigate mud rush hazards and improve productivity — and it paid for itself in less than two months.

Tonnage is tantamount to profitability at New Gold Inc.’s (TSX: NGD, NYSE: NGD) New Afton mine in south-central British Columbia.

The mine has moved and milled as much as 22,000 tonnes of ore in a single day and routinely extracts 18,500 tonnes from Canada’s only block cave mine.

Like other prolific block caves, New Afton enjoys efficiency with low operating costs. But the mine has also had to conquer one of the biggest block cave challenges: mud rush.

Mitigating mud rush hazards was the major motivation for implementing automated loading at New Afton.

As the block cave grew, more and more drawpoints became finely fragmented and wet. By 2016, one in five drawpoints were assessed as high-risk. To ensure operator safety, New Afton stopped manual mucking in those drawpoints and implemented line-of-sight teleremote loading.

“When 20% of your ore source needs to be remotely mucked, you run the risk that you can’t supply your mill with adequate tonnages,” says mine manager Peter Prochotsky, who joined New Afton in 2009 as a mining engineer and has seen the operation grow from a development project into Canada’s highest-tonnage underground mine.

“The line-of-sight systems just weren’t keeping up with the growing production demand over the years and we needed a new way

1-16_DEC9_Main .indd 3

New Afton conducted an engineering study in late 2016 to assess the potential value of implementing automated production loading to overcome the production constraint caused by line-of-sight and further improve safety. The mine trialed an AutoMine-equipped Sandvik LH514 for one month in early 2017. The 14-tonne loader ultimately proved too long for some of the cave’s tighter turns, but New Afton estimated impressive cycle times and buckets per shift using the smaller LH410.

“To transition from a line-of-sight solution to an automated solution, we calculated a 54-day payback period,” Prochotsky says. “If we continued using line-of-sight teleremotes, that production loss was, essentially over 54 days, the value of a brand new Sandvik LH410.

And we obviously made the choice pretty quickly that it was the right

way to go.”

New Afton’s existing block cave extraction level layout wasn’t optimized for automation and to ensure a successful transition a focus on change management was imperative.

Bob Garner, a technical expert with decades of block cave experience, led the operational side and trained operators on the AutoMine system. Electrical instrumentation technician TJ Williams complemented Garner’s skills with technical expertise, handling installation of all electrical systems.

“We needed to figure out the infrastructure, figure out the Wi-Fi, where we were going to put antennae points, how far apart they had to be, and then teach the loader its path and dial everything in to get it running efficiently,” Garner says.

Sandvik provided initial engineering assistance, starting system implementation in the west cave that Williams was able to replicate

himself in the east cave.

“The infrastructure is relatively simple,” he says. “Sandvik provided excellent documentation that we followed to a ‘T’ and I picked things up along the way working with their engineers. The overall process of installation was pretty straightforward.”

Within a week of commissioning in late 2017, the first of the mine’s two automated Sandvik LH410s was already proving significantly more productive than the tele-remote solution.

Williams says most of the mine’s line-of-sight operators were comfortable running AutoMine within five days.

“The Sandvik automated loaders are much more technologically advanced than the competitor loaders featuring aftermarket line-of-sight, but the learning curve wasn’t steep,” he says. “Everybody picked it up really easy.”

For New Af ton, AutoMine has proven to be the complete automation solution management assessed it to be.

“If another mine manager came to me and asked me who they should automate with, I think that Sandvik has the best system on the market, and it’s really because they have the total package,” Prochotsky says. “They’ve got field service representatives available to come to your site to help train your people, they’ve got great safety documentation that allows you to make sure there won’t be any incidents or accidents underground, and they’ve got a product that works. It’s a pretty simple solution in my mind.”

S

ince protests in Chile erupted over a subway fare increase in early October and morphed into broader demonstrations over income equality, inadequate public services and high household debt, at least 26 people have died and 13,500 have been injured.

Of those hurt, more than 220 eye injuries have been documented by Chile’s National

BY TRISH SAYWELL tsaywell@northernminer.com Human Rights Institute, an official and independent body. The main cause: pellets fired from 12-millimetre shotguns. The second cause: flying tear gas cartridges.

The Health Ministry reported on Nov. 17 that 16 people have lost eyesight in one eye and 34 others had “severe eye injuries that could result in partial or total eyesight loss,” Human Rights Watch outlined in a Nov. 26 report calling for police reform.

“For at least 12 victims, the damage to the cornea, iris and optic nerve has been so severe that doctors have had to remove the eye completely,” the New York Times reported in November. “A bandaged eye is now so common among people protesting inequality in Chile that it has become a rallying symbol.”

The newspaper’s reporters documented visiting the waiting room of a local hospital.

“An 18-year-old mechanics student lay on a stretcher worried whether the pellet inside her closed and swollen left eye would leave her blind,” the paper wrote. “A 46-year-old ironworker who was protesting the low minimum wage waited for an implant in his now empty right eye socket. A mother wiped a trickle of blood seeping from her son’s new prosthetic eye as he described the moment a police officer shot him.”

Human Rights Watch said the use of shotguns “that scatter pellets indiscriminately over a wide area with the potential to harm anyone in their path is of particular concern ... While initially concentrated within a small radius as they are fired, the pellets contained in the cartridges expand away from each other, to create a constellation of projectiles that can reach several decimetres in radius within a few metres of being fired.”

Often called “rubber bullets” — the pellets are actually “as hard as the wheel of a shopping cart,” HRW says.

A team of independent experts appointed by the United Nations Human Rights Council claimed on Nov. 8 that “the high number of wounded and the way in which non-lethal weapons have been used seem to indicate that the use of force was excessive and violated the requirements of necessity and proportionality.”

Chile’s police force finally suspended the use of “non-lethal” pellets on Nov. 19 — a day after a study by the mechanical engineering faculty at the University of Chile said 80% of the pellets are silica, barium sulphite and lead, and only 20% rubber.

HRW points to 442 criminal complaints through Nov. 21 that have been filed with prosecutors on behalf of victims “alleging policeinflicted injuries, cruel treatment, torture, sexual violence, attempted killings, and killings.” The Attorney General’s office is investigating 26 deaths. “There are hundreds of worrying reports of excessive force on the streets and abuse of detainees,” states Jose Miguel Vivanco, HRW’s America’s director. “This is precisely why police reforms are urgently needed.”

But police reform is just a start. Much more needs to be done.

In terms of income inequality, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development ranks Chile as the most unequal of its 36 member states. President Sebastian Pinera has promised a referendum in April 2020 on writing a new Constitution to replace the one penned more than 40 years ago under Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet (see story on Page 6). Pinochet, with input from U.S. freemarket economists from Chicago, embarked on cuts to social spending and a massive privatization spree of state businesses, many of which ended up in hands of the country’s elite. Mining giant SQM was acquired by a group of investors led by Pinochet’s former son-in-law, Julio Ponce Lerou.

“Today, the country’s wealth is largely in the hands of a few families who own mining, retail, finance, forestry, and other interests,” the Wall Street Journal reports. “Two supermarket chains account for about two-thirds of retail sales, three pharmacies have 95% of that market, and three private companies manage the pension funds of more than three-quarters of the country’s contributors.”

Pinera, whose net worth is US$2.8 billion according to Forbes, declared during a state of emergency address on Oct. 18 that the country is “at war against a powerful enemy.”

Apples & oranges: The standardization of technical reporting COMMENTARY

| New template is a key benchmark

BY KURT BREEDE

I

Special to The Northern Miner

n October, the Committee for Mineral Reserves International Reporting Standards (CRIRSCO) released the October 2019 version of the CRIRSCO template for standardized public reporting of exploration results, mineral resources and mineral reserves.

The publication marks another step forward in the harmonization of international reporting standards used in jurisdictions like Canada (CIM), Australia (JORC), South Africa (SAMREC) and the U.S. (SME), along with 10 other organizations from around the globe.

With the combined market capitalization of publicly listed mining and exploration companies in each of these 14 jurisdictions accounting for over 80% of the worldwide listed capital for mining, the standardization of definitions, language and content for publicly disclosed technical data works to the mutual interest of all parties involved, and most notably, the public investor who is often ill-equipped to compare apples to oranges when evaluating mineral projects.

Beyond the interests of those participating CRIRSCO jurisdictions in which reporting standards are already well entrenched, the template is intended as a framework that countries without reporting standards can use to develop their own mineral industry standards and codes.

The CRIRSCO template is neither a code in and of itself, nor is it a prescriptive recipe (or “howto” guide) on what constitutes industry compliant disclosure, but is rather a benchmark by which other codes and standards can be compared and developed. To facilitate this, the template includes a breakdown for each topic along with standard definitions and guidelines in the context of each topic.

Topics include competence and responsibility, reporting terminology, and reporting of exploration targets and exploration results, as well as guidelines specific to disclosure of mineral resources and reserves in public reports including but not limited to news releases, website content, and annual and quarterly company reports. And as social media grows as a platform for disseminating information and engaging stakeholders — blurring the boundaries between promotion and regulatory disclosure — so too does the need to ensure compliance with the principles of transparency, materiality and competence.

To this day, many issuers, par-

RULES GOVERNING THE DISCLOSURE OF RESULTS FOR THE UNDERLYING DATA HAVE HISTORICALLY BEEN SUBJECT TO COMPARATIVELY LITTLE OR NO CRITICAL ANALYSIS. ticularly those in the junior exploration space, fail to adhere to these governing principles, particularly at the early stages of a project’s life cycle. Often glossed over or outright ignored are modifying factors that materially impact the economic viability of projects including legal, environmental, social and governmental factors that can lay waste to the most robust engineering studies. Regrettably, these essential elements are often painted with broad-stroke assumptions based on the status quo and can even propagate into more advanced stages of project development, where the tipping point for failure can be far more severe.

Fortunately, increased public scrutiny and self-regulation is driving many issuers to adopt more proactive versus reactionary strategies to their social licence to operate. Boards are quickly realizing that the interests of shareholders and local stakeholders are less at odds than previously perceived, with project value increasing in proportion to stakeholder engagement. A 2011 study from Wharton Business School estimated the potential impact to market value to be as high as 60% when comparing issuers with ad hoc stakeholder engagement plans to those with more systematic strategies.

Canadian mining and exploration companies have notoriously been excellent advocates for their industry, and thanks to changes in public policy and perception, they are also becoming its most vocal critic.

The standardization of the reporting of exploration results, especially those used to support disclosure of mineral resources and reserves, is another area that is seeing increased scrutiny, particularly from within the industry, as practitioners work towards greater transparency. While the criteria for resource classification is relatively black and white, rules governing the disclosure of results for the underlying data have historically been subject to comparatively little or no critical analysis.

Turquoise Hill eyes legal clarity for Oyu Tolgoi expansion MONGOLIA

| Ruling favours NGO, complicates plans to expand underground mine development

BY STEVE STAKIW

I

Special to The Northern Miner

n November, Turquoise Hill Resources (TSX: TRQ; NYSE: TRQ) reported that a lawsuit previously lodged by a Mongolian non-governmental organization (NGO) group was apparently upheld by the country’s Administrative Court.

The challenge, brought by NGO group Darkhan Mongol Nogoon Negdel, alleges due process was not properly followed in 2015 when the Government of Mongolia finalized the Oyu Tolgoi underground mine development and financing plan (UDP) with partners Turquoise Hill and Rio Tinto (NYSE: RIO; LON: RIO), both of whom refute any suggestion that the UDP or any of its underlying agreements are illegal.

Rio Tinto is operator at the Oyu Tolgoi copper mine in southern Mongolia, and a majority shareholder of Turquoise Hill, holding a 50.8% interest. The Mongolian government owns 34% of the large copper operation through its stateowned Erdenes Oyu Tolgoi LLC, and Turquoise Hill owns 66%.

The reported ruling in favour of the NGO is the latest in a series of challenges faced by Turquoise Hill and its parent company Rio Tinto in the plan to expand underground mine development at the major copper and gold operation. The UDP envisions a phased ramp-up of underground production and has seen US$3.2 billion spent to date on the initiative.

However, according to the Financial Times, some optimism has emerged. Mongolia’s Minister of Mining and Heavy Industry Dolgorsurengiin Sumyaabazar confirmed in a Nov. 26 speech at the recent Mines & Money conference in London that Oyu Tolgoi’s underground expansion program will “not be stopped” and “would proceed directly forward.”

The Minister said Mongolia’s National Security Council had accepted a parliamentary resolution calling for the government to improve the UDP, but did not elaborate on what that would entail.

Turquoise Hill did not respond to a request for comment before press time.

Oyu Tolgoi began production in early 2013 as a major open-pit operation on the Oyut deposit, and is forecast to produce 125,000 to 155,000 tonnes copper and 240,000 oz. gold in 2019. In its recent thirdquarter results report, Turquoise Hill said annual C1 cost guidance is expected to come in at the US$1.50 to US$1.70 per lb. copper range — lower than the previous guidance of US$1.75 to US$1.90.

Third-quarter metal output from open-pit operations dropped quar-

ter-over-quarter in 2019, as the mine sequences through lower-grade ore, with third-quarter production of 28,400 tonnes copper and 35,400 oz. gold — a drop of 28% and 64% from the preceding second quarter.

Average mill feed grade for the third quarter was 0.37% copper versus 0.46% copper in the second quarter, and 0.57% copper in the first quarter.

Average mill throughput of 109,000 tonnes per day in the latest quarter was above the concentrator’s nameplate 100,000-tonne-per-day capacity. However, recoveries slipped to 75%, down from 80% and 84% in the first quarter and second quarter, reflecting dropping feed grades.

The company posted third-quarter net income of US$45.1 million on revenues of US$209.2 million, with a metal value split of 73% copper, 25% gold and 2% silver. C1 cash costs for the third quarter came in at US$2.14 per lb. copper, and all-in sustaining costs were US$2.84 per lb. copper.

Turquoise Hill recently completed and is commissioning the second of

five major planned shafts for Oyu Tolgoi underground operations.

Shaft 2 sports the world’s largest production hoist motor, with the ability to lift 35,000 tonnes of material to the surface daily at maximum capacity. The company says the 10-metre-diameter, 1.3 km deep Shaft 2 service hoist could move 300 people per cage cycle, versus 60 people per cage cycle through its Shaft 1.

In mid-year, Turquoise Hill provided a preliminary status update on its phase-two underground program at Oyu Tolgoi that tabled projected cost overruns and delays to initial production due to geotechnical issues and ground conditions at the planned block-caving operation on the Hugo North (Lift 1) deposit. The company flagged that development capital expenses for the project could increase US$1.2 billion to US$1.9 billion over the previously estimated US$5.3 billion, and initial production delayed 16 to 30 months to between mid-2022 and mid-2023.

Market reaction to the cost es-

ample where the simple disclosure of results can be perceived to imply positive project viability where none may exist. Vital to any form of disclosure is the provision of context, as well as appropriate cautionary language about the various risks to the project’s success. Even the simple act of rounding of significant figures can help manage the perceptions and expectations of the reader. In other words, it’s incumbent on the practitioner to document as much about what they don’t know as what they do know, so as not to mislead the reader.

Rubicon’s Phoenix gold project

and Guyana Goldfields’ Aurora gold project are just two examples of the dire consequences of failing to address risks (in these examples, geological risk) early in the project’s life.

The complexity of mineral resource and reserve estimates will only continue to escalate as ever more geologically complex deposits are matched by newer and more advanced estimation methods.

While the underlying principles could stay the same, the onus is on practitioners to adhere to standards and guidelines as those proposed by CRIRSCO and its member organiza-

tions to help ensure that projects are measured with a similar yard stick.

While no two projects will ever be alike, the common thread that unites them is the means by which they are compared. In so doing, mining investors can be confident that any project, be it an apple or an orange, can be seen through the same lens.

calation and forecast production delay was harsh, with Turquoise Hill shares shedding as much as 45% of their value to close at 79¢ on July 16 after the news. Investors were spooked by the capex overrun and its implications on the company’s liquidity and ability to fully fund the phase-two underground development program.

In his Nov. 12 research note, Scotiabank base metals analyst Orest Wowkodaw reiterated liquidity concerns for the company with its stated US$2.7 billion of available liquidity, commenting: “Based on the recent project delay, the company believes it currently has sufficient liquidity until first-quarter 2021. Given the significant medium-term funding uncertainty, our estimates continue to assume $3 billion of additional financing in 2021, comprising $1.5 billion of new debt and $1.5 billion of new equity.”

In its third-quarter results presentation, the company acknowledges financing will be needed beyond its existing liquidity to sustain un-

derground and power development funding at Oyu Tolgoi. A mine optimization study is in progress to provide greater clarity on the additional funding requirements, and Turquoise Hill has provided a proposal to its major shareholder Rio Tinto regarding funding sources.

Based on current development plans, Turquoise Hill says that Oyu Tolgoi will be the world’s third-largest copper producer at peak metal production in 2025, and expects average annual production from 2025 to 2030 to be more than 550,000 tonnes copper and over 450,000 oz. gold from the combined open-pit and underground operation. The mine is one of the largest contributors to Mongolia’s economy and has a 14,500-person workforce — 92% of which are Mongolian.

Turquoise Hill shares closed at 59¢ at press time, near the bottom of its 52-week trading range of 53¢ to $2.84, and at historic lows, giving the company a $1.2-billion market capitalization. TNM

Protests in Chile drive government to propose new constitution POLITICS

BY TOM AZZOPARDI

I

Special to The Northern Miner

n a bid to end weeks of antigovernment protests and riots that have left at least 26 people dead and 13,500 injured, Chile’s political parties have agreed on a process to design a new constitution.

The deal, reached in the early hours of Nov. 15, strives to resolve Chile’s worst political crisis since its return to democracy a generation ago and marks a step into the unknown for a country long lauded as the most stable and business friendly in the region.

At a referendum in April next year, Chileans will be asked whether they want a new constitution, and if so, whether the document should be written by a constitutional convention consisting of elected citizens, or one in which half will be elected citizens and the other half elected officials from the country’s current Congress.

The elections to the constitutional convention would be held in October 2020, and the convention would then have nine months (which can be extended by another three months) to come up with a text that is approved by two-thirds of its members. If successful, the document will be put to a second referendum in late 2021 or early 2022.

Chile’s current constitution, designed 40 years ago under former dictator Augusto Pinochet’s rule by U.S.-trained economists, refashioned the economy along free-market principles.

Since then, it has been championed by business leaders as underpinning much of the country’s economic success. But critics have said for decades that it doesn’t enshrine social rights or offer any kind of a safety net for the poor. Some of

| Change could affect landscape for mineral development

its more unpopular tenets include a ban on strikes by workers in the public sector and protections for private property that even extend to private ownership of water from rivers and other waterways.

While the process for writing a new constitution now looks clear, however, the new constitution’s impact on the mining sector is “a big ‘if,’” says Marco Zavala, a mining lawyer at Santiago law firm Guerrero Olivos.

“No one knows what it will look like,” he says.

Chile has received more than US$90 billion of foreign investment over the last 40 years, half of it into the mining industry, transforming it into the world’s largest copper producer, as well as a major exporter of molybdenum, precious metals, and more recently, lithium.

Decades later, mining companies are still lining up to invest.

Last year, the Chilean Copper Commission identified US$65.7billion worth of mining projects that could be developed over the next decade.

This is possible, advocates argue, thanks to the constitution’s emphasis on property rights and rules prohibiting any government to expropriate natural resources.

These cast-iron guarantees — together with the 1983 Mining Code and foreign investor contracts, which ensured stable tax rates and access to foreign capital — allowed Chile to lure back investors just a decade after the nationalizations of the 1970s.

Although nationalization of the country’s copper mines is still raised by occasional firebrands, the view is not widely shared.

“I have not heard anyone significant calling for expropriation,” says Pablo Mir, a mining lawyer in Santiago. “The overwhelming ma-

“I HAVE NOT HEARD ANYONE SIGNIFICANT CALLING FOR EXPROPRIATION. THE OVERWHELMING MAJORITY UNDERSTANDS THE IMPORTANCE OF MINING FOR DEVELOPMENT, AND THIS HAS TO BE DONE WITH PRIVATE CAPITAL.” PABLO MIR MINING LAWYER IN SANTIAGO

jority understand the importance of mining for development, and this has to be done with private capital.”

The two-thirds majority required to approve the new constitution should ensure that moderate views prevail, some observers say, and most protesters appear more concerned with day-to-day issues such as low pensions and wages and the state of public healthcare.

Chile’s multiple bilateral investment treaties also mean that constitutional safeguards are no longer as necessary, some say. Foreign investment contracts are already being phased out.

Furthermore, a new constitution proposed in 2017 by former president Michelle Bachelet (but dropped by President Sebastian Pinera when he took office last year) made no changes to Chile’s mining laws, notes Cristian Quinzio, former chief counsel at state copper company Codelco.

Still, there could be significant changes in some areas.

A new constitution would likely give more prominence to Indigenous minorities. The number of Chileans claiming an Indigenous identity has tripled over the last 20 years, according to a recent census, and the multicoloured banner of the Mapuche people (Chile’s largest Indigenous minority) has been as

visible as the Chilean flag during the protests.

Such groups could be granted greater control over their traditional lands and what activities may be undertaken there.

Similarly, with the effects of climate change becoming palpable in Chile, the new constitution is likely to put greater emphasis on environmental protection.

The country’s unique system of private property rights over water, enshrined in the constitution, is unlikely to survive unscathed, especially as water resources grow scarce. Most new mining projects already must use desalinated water in their operations because of the lack of alternatives.

Public consultation over new investment projects could be made binding while special protections could extend to glaciers and coastal areas and other sensitive but strategic phenomenon.

“My fear is that it is going to become much more difficult to develop new projects,” Quinzio said.

But changing the constitution could also bring opportunities.

Geologists have complained about an antiquated and cumbersome claims system, which has allowed a handful of companies to tie up huge areas of northern Chile. Under the current rules, companies

can stake as much land as they want for a minimal fee and hold it indefinitely with no obligation to drill or mine it. Critics say this encourages speculation and hoarding, and means fewer areas are left for juniors who want to explore in the country.

It could also loosen Cold War-era regulations over lithium resources, which have hindered investment in recent years.

But for now the biggest impact of a new constitution will be uncertainty, experts suggest.

“While there is no clarity about the contents of a new constitution, there is going to be an impact on investment decisions,” says Juan Carlos Guajardo, executive director of consultancy firm PlusMining.

Nobody is pulling out of Chile yet.

Projects already under construction will go ahead.

Teck Resources (TSX: TECK.B; NYSE: TECK) is in the midst of a US$4.7-billion project to expand its Quebraba Blanca operation into one of the world’s largest copper mines.

In November, Ricardo Ramos, the CEO of Sociedad Quimica y Minera de Chile (NYSE: SQM), said that the lithium producer is committed to its plan to quadruple production from its operations on the Salar de Atacama over the next four years.

But it’s possible that companies with projects at earlier stages of development will hold off.

In November, private consultancy Corporacion de Desarrollo Tecnologico de Bienes de Capital cut its estimate for investment into major projects in all industries over the next five years to US$63 billion, down 7% from three months earlier, largely as a result of the recent protests.

Further cuts seem likely as Chile debates its future. TNM

Mining waste for key metals RECYCLING

| Steady REE supply at home could mean less reliance on Chinese mines

BY DENISE HECKBERT Special to The Northern Miner

A

pple is using recycled rare earth elements (REE) in a key component of its newest iPhone 11 models, which hit the market in September.

The recycled REEs are employed in a part called the Taptic Engine, which allows the iPhone to mimic a physical button click. The part represents one-quarter of the REEs in an iPhone.

The move will enable Apple to secure a steady supply of the needed REEs, rather than rely on Chinese mines, which produced 70% of REE ore in 2018, according to the United States Geological Survey. A greater focus on recycling could also help protect Apple from REE price fluctuations, due to their relatively small volumes.

For now, Apple is getting the REEs from an unnamed outside supplier that retrieves them from manufacturing waste, not recycled devices. But the electronics giant is also experimenting with its own robot called Daisy, which it claims can disassemble 200 iPhones in an hour, enabling it to recover REEs and cobalt from old iPhones.

The manufacturer is one of many betting on recycling as a source of rare earth elements, and other metals like cobalt and lithium.

Mining companies that have not owned recycling operations in the past, or have focused on largervolume metals, have also started to tap into the expected glut of these materials in waste products.

Montreal-based Geomega Resources (TSXV: GMA) secured a $1.2-million equity investment midyear for its planned REE recycling plant. Earlier this year the junior mining company said it needed $2 million to build the plant but now targets $2.6 million, based on its front end engineering and design study. It claims that the study confirmed its in-situ recovery process — developed by its subsidiary Innord — is technically feasible and uses off-the-shelf equipment to enable scaling. Geomega said the study also confirms that its planned plant will be able to process 1.5 tons (1.4 tonnes) per shift, which could scale up to 24 hours per day, making the plant 4.5 times the scale it outlined in May 2019.

Canadian Li-Cycle, which received $2.7 million from the Canadian government in 2018, claims it can extract 80–100% of the materials from lithium ion batteries at its 5,000-ton-per-year (4,500-tonneper-year) plant in Mississauga. It is now looking to build a second plant in New York State, and recently signed a memorandum of understanding with metals recycler Sungho Group, under which it plans to build a plant in South Korea.

Right on its heels, manganese mining company turned recycler American Manganese (CNSX: AMY) said in November that it had achieved a 99.98% nickel-cobalt hydroxide from the nickel-cobaltaluminum scrap material it received from a lithium ion battery maker at its pilot project. The company has tested its pilot project and aims to begin engineering design and economic analysis of a 3- to 5-tonper-day (2.7- 4.5-tonne-per-day) commercial demonstration plant next year.

On the other side of the world, Japan’s Sumitomo Metal Mining announced in March that it had developed a process to recover and recycle cobalt from lithium ion batteries. It had previously developed a process to recover copper and nickel

1-16_DEC9_Main .indd 7

Apple’s Daisy robot, which can disassemble 200 devices per hour, removes and sorts components to facilitate recycling. APPLE

from the batteries but the technical challenges of extracting the cobalt meant that this much more valuable metal was wasted in the process.

Sumitomo uses a pyrometallurgical process independent of the existing process to remove impurities and uses a hydrometallurgical process to recycle the cobalt, along with nickel and copper. It has built a pilot plant using these processes in Niihama in Japan’s Ehime Prefecture to study the process.

It’s not difficult to understand why these companies are betting on recycling. The processes have worked well for other metals like aluminum and iron, so it’s logical to hope recycling could mean less mining.

The financial and resource supply benefits are considerable.

Cobalt is mined primarily in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), which holds most

THE PERFECT

GIFT

reserves. Recently, the government imposed higher taxes and domestic ownership rules there that have cooled investments. Major cobalt producer Glencore (LON: GLEN) mothballed its Mutanda plant earlier this year, which was responsible for 20% of the world’s production in 2018. The DRC may back off its position but has not yet indicated a willingness to do so. The price of cobalt increased to $35,000 per ton in response, and cobalt continues to be the most expensive input in lithium ion batteries, despite the small volume required.

At the same time, most REEs come from China, which holds much of the reserves and nearly all of the global refining capacity. China imposed quotas in 2010 as part of a dispute with Japan and has hinted as recently as this year that it could do so again as part of its trade war with the United States. In both cases,

REE prices climbed.

Considering that resources like cobalt and REEs are mined in relatively small volumes, are often difficult or impossible to substitute in end-uses, and come from politically sensitive regions, it may seem strange that companies are only now turning to recycling.

However, as expensive as these inputs are, the cost of recycling them, where recycling is technically feasible, could be greater.

A December 2018 report commissioned by the Government of the Netherlands to consider whether the country could access critical metals noted that recycling rates are below 1% for REEs (from all sources).

At the same time, only 5% of lithium ion batteries are recycled due to the complexity of the recycling process.

Lithium’s flammability has proven a frustrating challenge when recycling lithium ion batteries. Canadian think tank the International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD) said in its March 2019 report on cobalt and lithium recycling that, while 99% of lead-based car batteries are collected and recycled in North America and Europe, less than 5% of lithium ion batteries are recycled.

The pilot and demonstration projects underway in the industry could help improve the processing economics. Similar studies for REEs could help make recycling technically and financially viable.

The U.S. Department of Energy’s Ames Laboratory has a couple such projects underway, as part of the government’s effort to secure its access to critical metals. The first process works to separate REEs in permanent magnets from the iron and boron. The second separates the REEs themselves.

However, once the technical challenges are overcome, recyclers face the problem of collecting useable waste materials. The World Economic Forum (WEF) said in a September insight report on battery value chains that the equivalent of

10 billion cell phone lithium ion batteries [and the related cell phones] will reach the end-of-life in 2030. In the same year, IISD estimated that 1.2-million electric vehicle lithium ion batteries will reach their end of life in 2030. The permanent magnets in wind turbines will eventually become a major source of waste REEs, but turbines have a long life (at least 25 years, according to the Netherlands’ report) and efforts are underway to extend those turbines’ lives.

A massive supply of waste cobalt, lithium, and REEs will exist in 2030, but collection of the waste material will be a challenge. IISD and WEF anticipate that waste smartphones will be kept from recycling streams by users who hold onto the phones for nostalgic reasons, by third-party retailers who redirect used cellphones to developing nations, and by phones ending up in the garbage, either in the country of original use, or in a secondary country. The same is true for car batteries, according to IISD and WEF. There does not appear to be any meaningful way to address the collection challenge at this time. Most European and North American governments have regulations to encourage collection of valuable waste for recycling, but the targets have been soft, according to IISD — likely because of the technological challenges faced in recycling certain materials.

It may be that as the technology improves and demand for rare critical materials booms — with the expected increase in mobile wireless technology, electric vehicle sales and adoption of wind energy — regulations could tighten, or private companies could find the economics of recycling so favourable that they themselves incentivize and prioritize recycling. For now, however, the unreliable supply of waste material and the price volatility of these critical elements and metals could make development of large-scale facilities challenging, according to IISD.

Velocity Minerals eyes ‘hub and spoke’ production in Bulgaria GOLD

| Partnership with private Bulgarian company offers multiple benefits

BY STEVE STAKIW Special to The Northern Miner

A

spiring precious metals developer Velocity Minerals (TSXV: VLC) recently tabled engineering study results and the latest drill assays from its 70%-owned Rozino gold deposit in southeastern Bulgaria.

Rozino, the most advanced of Velocity’s four Bulgarian gold projects, is advancing to the prefeasibility study (PFS) level.

A 2018 preliminary economic assessment (PEA) modelled an openpit operation with a six-year mine life centred on an inferred mineral resource of 573,000 contained oz. gold within 13 million tonnes grading 1.37 grams gold per tonne (using a cut-off grade of 0.6 gram gold per tonne). The study projected a $129-million after-tax net present value (at a 5% discount rate) and a 33% after-tax internal rate of return.

All-in sustaining costs were pegged at US$543 per oz. gold and the study forecast steady gold production of 65,000 oz. annually. The PEA sees development capital requirements of $97.3 million for the mine and concentrate production plant.

Results from Velocity’s latest infill and target drilling returned multiple surface and near-surface gold mineralized intervals on the 160 sq. km property package. Several holes — including hole 138 with 25 metres of 1.49 grams gold from 103 metres’ depth — returned significant mineralization below and outside of conceptual pit designs in the PEA study. Based on these results, the company says there could be potential to combine the main and north open pits defined in its 2018 study.

Additionally, multiple engineering studies have been undertaken en route to the company’s planned completion of the Rozino PFS in mid-2020, including geotechnical studies for both pit and infrastructure design, hydrogeology, processing and metallurgy test work, and an updated mineral resource estimate.

Velocity is also studying potential haul road routes and electrical transmission supply and routing.

Velocity describes its planned production strategy as a “hub and

spoke” model, envisioning staged open-pit mining of satellite deposits with centralized processing at the nearby carbon-in-leach (CIL) plant operated by its Bulgarian partner Gorubso-Kardzhali. It is the only permitted CIL plant in the country.

Velocity entered an exploration and mining alliance with the privately owned Gorubso in early 2018. The alliance encompasses the CIL plant and all existing and future Gorubso and Velocity projects in a 10,400 sq. km area of the Eastern Rhodope gold mining district.

“The most important and valuable aspect of the Gorubso partnership, from our perspective, is that they have an operating CIL plant,” Velocity’s president and CEO Keith Henderson said in an interview.

“Permitting CIL plants in Europe these days, or anywhere in the world, is not particularly easy. Permitting these kinds of projects when you’re a small junior company can be extremely challenging and take a very long time, so having that partner and having access to a plant that has been operating for 10 years is

a huge advantage for us.

“The partnership also gives us access to a pipeline of projects and we’re systematically earning a 70% interest in all these projects, and each of them could be a satellite that could ultimately be capable of feeding mineralization into the CIL plant,” Henderson continued.

Rozino, which is 30% held by Gorubso, is 85 km southeast of the CIL plant and situated along road transport corridors. The deposit is also 20 km east of Dundee Precious Metals’ (TSX: DPM) recently commissioned, 2,500-tonne-per-day Ada Tepe gold mine.

Velocity’s other joint-venture projects in the area include Obichnik, Makedontsi and Sedefche, and are all located between 10 and 35 km south of the CIL plant. The company is earning a 70% interest in these projects from Gorubso and has undertaken advanced drill programs aiming to deliver initial resource estimates over the next year.

After a recent analyst site visit to Velocity’s projects, Beacon Securities mining analyst Michael Curran

“THE MOST IMPORTANT AND VALUABLE ASPECT OF THE GORUBSO PARTNERSHIP, FROM OUR PERSPECTIVE, IS THAT THEY HAVE AN OPERATING CIL PLANT.” KEITH HENDERSON PRESIDENT AND CEO, VELOCITY MINERALS

is upbeat about the project. “We expect the next [Rozino] resource update will successfully convert the majority of existing inferred resources to indicated, and maintain our view that resources could ultimately be plus-1 million ounces.

Additional PFS work should see improvements to gold recoveries and changes to the processing plans [semi-autogenous grinding vs. ball mill, adding a gravity circuit, etc.] could also yield improvements to overall project economics.”

Earlier this year, Velocity attracted the attention of Canadian gold miner Atlantic Gold, which was operating its Moose River Consolidated mine complex in Nova Scotia. Atlantic

Gold developed a centralized processing plant plan at Moose River and was mining its Touquoy open-pit operation, with three other deposits and projects in a planned production pipeline.

“Velocity’s strategy is similar to what Atlantic Gold did and led to a situation where they wanted to invest in our company,” Henderson said. “Atlantic, having got to the stage where they were generating significant revenue, were looking very hard around the world for opportunities and ultimately decided Velocity was a project they wanted to invest in. They gave us $9 million in March of this year that we have been deploying into exploration programs on our four projects.”

Subsequent to Atlantic’s investment in Velocity, the Nova Scotia gold producer was acquired by Australia’s St Barbara (ASX: SBM) in a deal valued at $802 million.

Atlantic’s investment in Velocity was placed in a subsidiary company, Artemis Gold (TSXV: ARTG), which was distributed to Atlantic shareholders upon the closure of its takeover. Artemis holds a 19% interest in Velocity.

Although not a well-known mining jurisdiction, Bulgaria is the thirdlargest copper producer and fourthlargest gold producer in Europe, and its mineral industry constitutes 5% of the country’s gross domestic product. It has been a member of the European Union since 2007.

The main western mining company active in the country is Dundee Precious Metals (TSX: DPM), which operates its Chelopech gold-copper mine and the Ada Tepe gold mine.

As of Sept. 30, Velocity had $5.3 million in its treasury and a $4.8-million working capital position.

Shares in the company closed at 44¢ at press time, in the upper range of its 52-week 56¢ to 16¢ trading range, giving it a $43-million market capitalization. TNM

Aurania finds ancient Spanish road at Lost Cities–Cutucu ECUADOR

| Remnants found 60 km from Aurania’s Yawi target

tsaywell@northernminer.com

or almost 20 years, Keith Barron has been hunting for two famous gold-mining centres in Ecuador that historic Spanish manuscripts and maps from the 16th and 17th centuries refer to as Sevilla del Oro and Logrono de los Caballeros.

In late November, the chairman and CEO of Aurania Resources (TSXV: ARU) announced that field teams had found an old road in the central part of the company’s Lost Cities–Cutucu project that he believes linked the two mining centres from 1565 until 1606.

The remnants of the road, 60 km from where Aurania is drilling its Yawi target, were found in heavy vegetation over 2.5 km, and run north–south along Aurania’s concession block in the eastern foothills of the Andes mountain range of southeastern Ecuador.

“In the historical records they call them cities, but they were never cities, they were gold settlements of a maximum of probably 20 to 30 Spaniards and a number of Indigenous people made to work in the mines,” Barron says on a conference call.

At their peak around 2,000 people would have worked at these mines, he says, but the numbers dwindled to the hundreds, as the areas were depopulated by diseases like influenza and smallpox.

“We know from the archives that there were requests to the Spanish crown to purchase African slaves and send them from west Africa over to Ecuador and work in the mines, but by the time this happened, it was a bit too late because the Spanish crown was bankrupt — after the Spanish armada it lost everything — so these places were reclaimed by the jungle and lost.”

“THIS ISN’T A TALE OUT OF TREASURE ISLAND, THIS IS SOMETHING VERY REAL. PEOPLE LIVED AND DIED HERE ...

AND WE ARE VERY MUCH HOT ON THE TRAIL.” KEITH BARRON CHAIRMAN AND CEO, AURANIA RESOURCES

The next steps include a LIDAR survey over the area that may detect extensions of the road, which historic documents suggest joined Sevilla del Oro and Logrono de los Caballeros by a hard day’s march.

“I would like to see the LIDAR survey zero in on both ends of the road and try to pick up vestiges of the mining activity,” Barron told analysts and investors on the call.

“We are not going to find any buildings, or anything of archaeological significance. What it will be is a trench, a pit, a rock dump, something like that, but we’re not going to be finding any heaps of gold or silver.”

Baron notes that the LIDAR survey can “really leapfrog things ahead” now that they have found the road, and says: “hopefully one end is going to terminate in the old mine workings.

“This is a very significant discovery,” he says. “We know from the documentation that we have — and we’re talking about hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of historic documents and maps — that this isn’t a tale out of Treasure Island, this is something very real. People lived and died here ... and we are

very much hot on the trail.”

Aurania describes the road in a press release as “engineered” and says it is “cut into embankments, and its downslope edges are lined with blocks of shale that have prevented erosion.”

Two rectangular blocks of dressed sandstone lie at a junction in the road and are estimated to weigh between 900 and 1,000 pounds.

Currently Aurania is drilling its Yawi gold target, where it just finished its second hole, and the drill is moving to a second target. It has found six so far.

“We’re dealing with an extensive mineralized system,” Aurania’s president, Richard Spencer, said on the call. “What we plan to do is drill one to two holes in each of the four target areas, and the fifth target is being defined. Once we’ve got a picture of the bigger part of the system, then we’ll decide where we’re going to start homing in.”

Aurania has also come across two types of copper at surface: porphyryrelated copper and sedimentary copper, where the copper exists in specific sedimentary horizons.

These findings are exciting, Barron and Spencer explain, because the copper would be cheaper and easier to extract.

“We stumbled over the copper and silver in sediments when we were looking for gold,” Barron says. “It’s like God kissed us on the forehead.

“This is really quite incredible.

Remember it’s oxide copper, it’s not sulphide, so it doesn’t require a mill to grind it into a paste and then flotation cells to produce concentrate that needs to be shipped ... this would be easy to crush and it could potentially be heap leached.”

Barron also notes that one of the most interesting things about the

HP Billiton (NYSE: BHP) is spending US$22 million to boost its stake in SolGold (TSX: SOLG; LON: SOLG) to 14.7% from 11.1%, making it one of the two largest shareholders in the Ecuador-focused junior exploration company. Newcrest Mining (ASX: NCM) owns 14.8%.

BHP is acquiring 77 million shares at 22.15 pence per share — a 13% premium to SolGold’s closing share price on Nov. 22.

Under the deal, BHP agreed not to acquire more shares in the company over the next two years without SolGold’s consent. But the investment does give it options for 19.25 million shares at a price of 37 pence through Nov. 25, 2024.

The transaction underscores the attractiveness of copper assets, as mines age and appetite for the metal grows with rising demand for renewable energy and the electrification of the transportation sector.

Aurania finds ancient Spanish road at Lost Cities–Cutucu “WE STUMBLED OVER THE COPPER AND SILVER IN SEDIMENTS WHEN WE WERE LOOKING FOR GOLD. IT’S LIKE GOD KISSED US ON THE FOREHEAD.”

AURANIA From 9

copper at the Lost Cities–Cutucu project is that both the porphyry copper and sedimentary copper is in the same place — something “not seen anywhere else in the world.”

Aurania has only explored 55– 60% of its concessions so far and still has a “boatload of targets — well beyond what a typical junior mining company would have.”

This year, the company expects to spend US$10 million on exploration — at least 60% of that on gold targets and most of that on drilling.

But shareholders have to be patient, Barron says, pointing out that it took a long time for his team at Aurelian Resources to find the Fruta del Norte gold deposit in 2006 in the Cordillera del Condor — the adjacent and contiguous mineral belt to Aurania’s Lost Cities–Cutucu project. That project, now owned by Lundin Gold (TSX: LUG), poured its first gold on Nov. 18.

“Fruta del Norte was maybe the tenth or twelfth prospect we had drilled starting from 2001 right up until 2006 when the discovery was made,” he says. “We are better funded than that company was back then, but if it was easy to find gold it wouldn’t be precious.”

As for the copper, it opens up more funding and joint-venture opportunities with larger companies.

“The major copper companies that have signed joint ventures in

Ecuador will typically sign for many tens of millions of dollars, in the range of US$50 million to US$60 million per target or per group of concessions,” Spencer says. “And then the original company, Aurania

in our case, would get to keep a 30% free-carried interest right up to the definition of a feasibility study … these major companies know what they’re doing, they have experience, they have money, and can do things

quicker than we can because they can afford helicopters and those things, so we look forward to advancing those copper targets to the point where the majors come in and put their horsepower behind them.”

But Barron notes that Aurania won’t repeat what happened with Fruta del Norte, which was only one of 34 gold occurrences they found and 12 porphyry targets, only two of which it drilled in a preliminary way.

“We were scooped up by Kinross and they got that whole package,” he says. “Everything else came for free. Now it’s in the hands of Lundin Gold and it has joint ventured with Newcrest on the peripheral concessions that contain some of the gold and copper targets ... They’re close to drilling one of the copper porphyry targets we didn’t get a chance to explore. So it’s a disservice to our shareholders if we sit on our laurels and concentrate on only one commodity and give the rest for free ... I’m not going to let that happen.” TNM

of 2020.

A preliminary economic assessment in May 2019 outlined preproduction capex of between US$2.4 billion and US$2.8 billion, and total capex — including life-of-mine sustaining capex — of US$10.1 billion to US$10.5 billion, depending on the production rate scenario.

The study envisioned a 50-milliontonne-per-year operation producing 456 million lb. copper and 438,000 oz. gold per year over 25 years.

The study favoured block-cave, underground mass mining over several caves designed on two vertically extensive lifts.

According to SolGold, Alpala has produced some of the best drill hole intercepts in porphyry copper-gold exploration history, including one intersection of more than 1,000 metres grading 0.74% copper and 0.54 gram gold per tonne.

The deposit is the main target on SolGold’s Cascabel concession, which sits on the northern section of the Andean copper belt.

Matthew O’Keefe of Cantor Fitzgerald says the investment puts BHP “on par with SolGold’s other major shareholder, Newcrest Mining, supporting competitive tension.”

He also points to SolGold’s enormous land position in the country.

“With a first-mover advantage in Ecuador, SolGold has amassed 3,200 sq. km of concessions, and is well-positioned for additional large-scale discoveries,” he writes in a research note.

“SolGold has significantly greater leverage to copper than gold and with copper at multi-year lows, we see this as a good time to buy SolGold, particularly for the investment horizons over the medium-term,” he adds. “As copper prices improve, and as the project advances through permitting and feasibility, we expect the stock to move up towards our target price.”

The analyst has a one-year target price on the stock of $1, or 60 pence, per share. TNM

Continental expects all-in sustaining costs (AISCs) at Buritica of US$600 per ounce. The company anticipates producing up to 300,000 oz. per year at the mine, with an updated mine plan for the first three years expected before commercial production starts.

COMPASS GOLD Compass Gold (TSXV: CVB; USOTC: COGDF) is focused on the Farabakoura gold discovery in southern Mali.

The company wholly owns the 850 sq. km Sikasso project consisting of nine permits within the Birimian gold belt.

Farabakoura is a 15 km long target area that traverses the company’s Faraba–Coura, Ouassada and Sankarani permits.

In September, Compass released results of drilling completed at the Ouassada permit, along a 200-metre high-grade section of the Farabakoura trend, known as the Creek zone. Reported intercepts include 6 metres of 65.6 grams gold per tonne starting at 20 metres and 13 metres of 9.25 grams gold starting at 21 metres.

The Creek zone extends an estimated 750 metres. Most of the drilling so far has been completed on the southern part of the Farabakoura target area.

Gold mineralization at Farabakoura

Mineralization at Buritica is most extensive within the Yaragua and Veta Sur areas, with each system traced over 1,300 metres of strike and over 1,800 vertical metres.

In August, the company identified three gold zones, up to 1 km long, over 4.8 km at the Faraba–Coura permit, north of the Ouassada permit. Follow-up drilling is planned with more than 20 drill targets over the 15 km Farabakoura trend.

A total of over 40 targets have been found across the company’s holdings in Mali.

Compass plans to drill-test additional targets at Farabakoura and drill on other priority areas.

Work is expected to start in January 2020.

In November, Compass announced a private placement with proceeds of $5.5 million, with Semafo (TSX: SMF) subscribing for $2 million.

Semafo could own 10% of the outstanding shares of Compass upon completion. Proceeds are expected to fund exploration efforts in Mali until the end of 2020.

Compass Gold has a $16.3-million market capitalization.

ancouver-based Awalé Resources (TSXV: ARIC) has intercepted near-surface, high-grade gold at its Empire prospect, part of its 90%-owned Odienné project in northwestern Côte d’Ivoire, close to the country’s borders with Mali and Guinea.

ANGET-CI, a local company, holds the other 10%.

T he compa ny k icked of f a 3,000-metre drill program at Odienné with 2,500 metres drilled at Empire in October. Recently, Awalé released results from three drill holes that the company says surpassed expectations, finding high-grade intervals and visible gold in unweathered rock.

All three holes intercepted coarse, fine-grained free gold, with the first two holes returning high-grade intercepts. Assays from the third

hole are pending.

Hole 1 returned 4.9 grams gold per tonne over 18 metres, including 7.9 grams gold over 10 metres, from 40 metres downhole, and hole 2 intercepted 3.1 grams gold over 27 metres, including 5.3 grams gold over 9 metres, from 43 metres downhole.

The two holes, which tested the core area of the Empire prospect, contained visible gold in extensional quartz veins hosted within a brittle ductile deformation zone in a diorite body that intruded a preexisting west- to northwest-trending, mylonite-bearing structure. All reported intervals occur beneath the oxidation zone and within sulphidebearing vein assemblages.

The third hole, drilled 80 metres downdip of the first two holes, cut a similar gold-bearing brittle ductile zone. Assays for the hole are pending.

Parsons says the company’s systematic exploration methods over the last year have given the team

the moment,” Parsons says.

The company aims to find at least 1 million oz. at Odienné, he says, so that options become available — such as finding a joint-venture partner for the project, or attracting interest as a takeover target.

“We are active explorers who have been successful in the past and have no ambition of becoming miners,” Parsons says.

The CEO notes that Côte d’Ivoire is underexplored when compared to other countries in West Africa such as Ghana, Mali and Burkina Faso, and describes the country as a “good jurisdiction.”

“We are an up-and-coming region,” he continues, noting the government strongly supports development of the industry.

“The ministry is extremely positive toward miners and wants to progress mining,” he says. “They know they have been sitting behind Ghana, Burkina and Mali, and are certainly encouraging investment.”

Awalé’s other projects include Bondoukou in northwestern Côte d’Ivoire and Abengourou in the Comoé region in the eastern part of the country.

Bondoukou, its f lagship asset, spans 1,190 square kilometres. In July, the company announced results from the other five trenches of a 10-trench, 883-metre program at Bondoukou’s Fako prospect, which delineated a mineralized system similar to the previously defined Locality A. Highlights include Trench 5, which returned 21 metres grading 2 grams gold, including 1 metre grading 11.5 grams gold from 36 metres, and 1-metre intercepts grading 5.5 grams gold from 43 metres and 5.4 grams gold from 45 metres.

Trench 3 returned one-metre intercepts grading 10.5 grams gold from 63 metres, 11.5 grams gold from 65 metres and 4.8 grams gold from 73 metres.

In September, the company raised $1.7 million through a non-brokered private placement of 19.2 million common shares at 9¢ apiece. The proceeds will help exploration at Odienné and Bondoukou, as well as cover general overhead and operating expenses.

Awalé’s assets originally belonged to Mariana Resources. But after Sandstorm Gold (TSX: SSL; NYSEAM: SAND) acquired Mariana in July 2017, the company spun the company out into Awalé, which listed in December 2017. Most of Awalé’s team, like Parsons, came from Mariana. Parsons served as Mariana’s CEO from 2010 to 2017.

“Sandstorm are not explorers and early operational exploration assets don’t make sense,” Parsons says. “When they purchased us we agreed to spin these out.”

The company’s shareholders include Sandstorm Gold (17.21%) and Capital Drilling (12.18%).

At press time, Awalé’s shares traded at 19¢ apiece in a 52-week range of 6¢ to 26¢. The company has 68.4 million shares outstanding for a $13.7-million market capitalization. TNM

jlian@northernminer.com

un Metals (TSXV: SUNM) has completed the final tranche of a $6.2-million bought-deal financing that will help it advance exploration at its wholly owned Stardust project, 250 km northwest of Prince George in British Columbia.

Steve Robertson, the company’s president and CEO, says the equity financing will help the company advance exploration of the 421 zone — an area of extensive skarn alteration hosting high-grade copper-gold mineralization.

New drill results from six holes extend the 421 zone to more than 160 metres and show that it is open to the north and south. High-grade copper-gold mineralization has been intercepted in several holes.

“The strength and tenor of mineralization that we are seeing so far would indicate that we have got a very substantial project on our hands,” Robertson says. “So we are very excited and quite bullish that this is going to become something that the industry is going to be talking about.”

Hole 436D intersected 46 metres grading 1.44% copper, 1.18 grams gold per tonne and 27 grams silver per tonne for 2.44% copper equivalent from 502 metres, and 25 metres grading 3.13% copper, 4.85 grams gold and 93.5 grams silver for 7.12% copper equivalent.

Hole 440M returned 16 metres grading 2.38% copper, 2.68 grams gold and 66.6 grams silver for 4.71% copper equivalent from 709 metres.

Other highlights include hole 441M, which cut 11 metres grading 3.35% copper, 3.88 grams gold and 60.7 grams silver for 6.39% copper equivalent from 609 metres, and 11 metres grading 3.94% copper, 4.58 grams gold and 79.2 grams silver for 7.58% copper equivalent.

Robertson says the company has seen “a tremendous amount of success” since it was granted an option in September 2017 to acquire full interest in the project from Lorraine Copper (TSXV: LLC: US-OTC: LRCPF). Rather than completing

1-16_DEC9_Main .indd 13

the earn-in on the option agreement, however, Sun Metals decided earlier this year to acquire the entire company.

Stardust is a project “that has got it all,” Robertson says. “We seem to have all the boxes checked regarding jurisdiction, infrastructure, community, and of course, geologic endowment.”

Step-out drilling along strike and down-plunge of the 421 zone shows lateral continuity of the mineralized system, which the company says was generated from a porphyry-copper style intrusive to the north. A pervasive skarn alteration envelope surrounds the copper-gold mineralization, suggesting that drilling could find the more proximal part of the system, the company says.

Ian Neill, Sun Metals’ vice-president of exploration, says the alteration found in the drilling to date shows that they are still distant from the heart of the system, but suggests there is more mineralization north of the zone, which trends 2,220 metres

SUN METALS

northwest. Increased consistency in grades from hole to hole is expected as they track the mineralizing fluids

to their source, Neill says.

The project hosts at least one mineralized carbonate-replacement system identified as the Canyon Creek copper-gold deposit, Neill says. The Canyon Creek zone is a skarn-hosted mineral occurrence within the Permian Cache Creek group sediments located next to the Glover Stock, a composite intrusive centre and linear dike array in the middle of the property.

A 2018 technical report that Sun Metals and Lorraine Copper commissioned based on the Canyon Creek copper-gold skarn zone states that Stardust has an indicated mineral resource of 985,000 tonnes grading 1.34% copper, 0.62% zinc, 1.59 grams gold and 36.8 grams silver for 2.92% copper equivalent.

Inferred resources add 1.98 million tonnes averaging 1.24% copper, 0.14% zinc, 1.72 grams gold and 30.5 grams silver for 2.65% copper equivalent.

The company has drilled 8,860 metres in 19 holes since May. A recently added third drill will focus on the south end of the zone.

Drilling will focus on defining the egg-shaped 421 zone, which plunges north–northwest.

“One of the most promising

things about working towards the mineralization source is that we expect the sulphide replacement of the skarn alteration to be more complete closer to the high-energy heat source, theoretically resulting in even higher-grade material,” Robertson says. “This is what drives us to continue our focus on the trend to the north.”

The company has winterized the exploration camp and equipment so that drilling can continue when temperatures fall below freezing — sometimes as low as -30°C. “We have a very unique opportunity, because there are not a lot of good exploration-stage copper projects out there with recent discoveries,” Robertson says. “We will continue to work to build up the tonnage in this zone and hopefully get to the point where we feel we have got an economic zone that will justify moving the project forward.”

Teck Resources (TSX: TECK.B; NYSE: TECK) and insiders own 9% and 24% of the company.

At press time, Sun Metals shares were trading at 19¢ apiece within a 52-week range of 17¢ to 65¢. The company has 126 million shares outstanding for a $24-million market capitalization. TNM

EXPLORATION PROJECTS TO WATCH

WWW.NORTHERNMINER.COM

EXPLORATION PROJECTS TO WATCH SNAPSHOT the Monique property adjoining the Val-d’Or East project.

SNAPSHOT From 11 km of the Buritica mine. At Electra South, high-grade veins have been traced over a 500- by 2,000-metre area, whereas at Orion, high-grade mineralization has been found over a 500- by 1,500-metre area.

The Sleepy deposit at Cadillac Break East hosts an inferred resource of 167,900 oz. gold with another 396,800 oz. inferred at Monique, based on a 100% Probe ownership.

Between May 2017 and July 2019, Newmont Goldcorp (TSX: NGT; NYSE: NEM) invested a total of US$109 million in Continental. It holds 19.9% of the company. On Dec. 2, China’s Zijin Mining offered $1.4 billion in cash to acquire Continental at a price of $5.50 per share. Newmont Goldcorp entered into voting support agreements to support the transaction. A shareholder vote will be held in January 2020.

Probe is completing baseline environmental and engineering studies on the Val-d’Or East project, with more mining and metallurgical studies upcoming as the company looks to find the optimal development scenario.

Probe’s CEO, David Palmer, was the president and CEO of Probe Mines, which grew the Borden gold project in Ontario and was acquired in January 2015 by Goldcorp for $526 million.

Continental Gold has an $855-million market capitalization.

In November, Probe announced a $17-million bought-deal private placement.

ENDEAVOUR MINING Endeavour Mining (TSX: EDV) is a West African-focused gold producer with operations in Mali, Burkina Faso and Côte d’Ivoire.

The company expects to produce 650,000 to 695,000 oz. gold in 2019 at AISCs of US$795 to US$845 per ounce.

The Houndé mine in Burkina Faso was commissioned in 2017 and production guidance for 2019 is 230,000 to 250,000 ounces. In November, Endeavour announced a 1 million oz. increase in indicated resources at Houndé.

At the Ity mine in Côte d’Ivoire, more than 1.2 million oz. gold has been produced over the past 20 years through heap leaching.

Earlier this year, Endeavour built a carbon-in-leach plant at the site.

In 2019, the operation is expected to produce 160,000 to 200,000 oz. gold. The company expects to start a plant expansion to 5 million tonnes per year (from 4 million tonnes per year) at Ity in the fourth quarter of 2019. A resource and reserve release for Ity is also expected in the first quarter of 2020.

The company expects another 120,000 to 130,000 oz. this year from its Agbaou project in Côte d’Ivoire, and 105,000 to 115,000 oz. from its Karma mine in Burkina Faso.

Beyond its operations, Endeavour has a pipeline of development and exploration projects. The company has 10,090 sq. km of exploration holdings in West Africa that host over 200 exploration targets.

Between 2016 and 2018, Endeavour added 4.2 million oz. to its resource inventory, with over half of the mineralization hosted in oxide material.

A feasibility study on its Kalana project in Mali is expected by yearend.

La Mancha, a private investment company, holds 30% of Endeavour’s common shares outstanding.

Endeavour Mining has a $2.65-billion market capitalization.

GREAT BEAR RESOURCES Great Bear Resources (TSXV: GBR) wholly owns the Dixie project in Ontario’s Red Lake district. The company has traced a high-grade gold system over a 23 km stretch of the project, with eight gold zones found in the last two years.

Seven of these discoveries are located within a 4 km stretch of the LP fault, an 18.5 km target at

A drill at Great Bear Resources’ Dixie gold project in Ontario’s Red Lake district. GREAT BEAR RESOURCES Dixie. Another zone was recently intercepted across the parallel North fault. Drilling is planned for this target, with mineralized quartz vein intercepts similar to those found at the Hinge zone along the LP fault.

The Yauro discovery was announced in October. Two holes drilled 125 metres apart returned intercepts of 37 metres of 5.14 grams gold and 66 metres of 2.01 grams gold starting within the first 56 metres and 86 metres downhole. According to the company, coarse visible gold was intercepted at Yauro.

Intercepts from drilling completed on the Bear–Rimini–Yuma area this year include 149 metres of 0.95 gram gold and 56 metres of 1.26 grams gold.

In November, Great Bear closed a flow-through bought-deal private placement for gross proceeds of $16.7 million.

The company plans to conduct more drilling to step out the LP fault to the east. It is completing the last 18,000 metres of a 90,000-metre drill program, with three rigs active at Dixie.

Great Bear has a $269.5-million market capitalization.

INTEGRA RESOURCES Integra Resources (TSXV: ITR, US-OTC: IRRZF) is focused on its DeLamar project in southwestern Idaho, 160 km from Boise.

In September, the company announced the results of a preliminary economic assessment (PEA) on the project, which outlined an open pit with average annual gold production of 124,000 oz. gold at AISCs of US$619 per oz., net of by-product credits. Initial capital was estimated at US$161 million.

The study outlines a project starting as a 27,000-tonne-per-day heapleach operation, with the addition of a 2,000-tonne-per-day mill in the third year of operations.

In November, Integra announced a $6.6-million placement with Coeur Mining (NYSE: CDE) alongside a $22-million bought deal.

Integra’s president and CEO George Salamis was most recently the executive chairman of Integra Gold, which sold to Eldorado Gold (TSX: ELD, NYSE: EGO) for $590 million in July 2017.

Resources at the project stand at 172.4 million tonnes measured and indicated grading 0.43 gram gold and 21 grams silver for a total of 2.38 million oz. gold and 116.5 million oz. silver, with another 28.3 million inferred tonnes grading 0.38 gram gold and 13.5 grams silver for 343,000 oz. gold and 12.2 million oz. silver.

The company is drilling areas outside of current resources at the DeLamar and Florida Mountain deposits.

The historic DeLamar mine was previously owned by Kinross Gold (TSX: K, NYSE: KGC), which closed the site in 1998. The site produced a total of 1.6 million oz. gold and 100 million oz. silver between 1863 and 1998.

Integra plans to start work on a pre-feasibility study in the next few months with expected completion in the second half of 2021.

Permitting work has begun.

Integra Resources has an $88.9-million market capitalization.

PAN AMERICAN SILVER Pan American Silver (TSX: PAAS; NASDAQ: PAAS) is a silver miner with assets in the Americas. The company expects to produce 25.3 million to 26.3 million oz. silver in 2019 at AISCs of US$6 to US$7.50 per oz. net of by-product credits, with gold production expected at 550,000 to 600,000 ounces.

In October, Pan American announced exploration results from the La Colorada skarn, adjacent to and below the vein system at its La Colorada mine in Mexico. Drill intercepts include 379 metres of 54 grams silver per tonne, 0.5% copper, 1.96% lead and 3.73% zinc, as well as 253 metres of 67 grams silver, 0.19% copper, 3.84% lead and 6.56% zinc. An initial resource estimate is expected by year-end.

In November 2018, Pan American announced a US$1.07 billion acquisition of Tahoe Resources, adding the Escobal silver mine in Guatemala to its portfolio, as well as the La Arena and Shahuindo gold mines in Peru and the Bell Creek mine in Ontario.

At Escobal, operations are suspended pending completion of a consultation process, court approval and community engagement efforts. Project reserves are at 264 million oz. silver. Commercial

SilverCrest discovers another high-grade zone at Las Chispas MEXICO

jlian@northernminer.com

ilverCrest Metals (TSX: SIL; NYSE-AM: SILV) has found a high-grade zone outside the resource area at its Las Chispas project in Sonora, Mexico, 220 km northeast of Hermosillo.

The discovery hole — 19-118 — returned 9 metres grading 44.3 grams gold per tonne and 4,551.3 grams silver per tonne for 7,873 equivalent grams silver tonne, starting from 304 metres downhole.

Another hole, 19-123, cut 6 metres grading 3.54 grams gold and 615.5 grams silver for 881 grams silverequivalent from 300 metres. The company has called the discovery zone “Area 118.”

“I didn’t really believe it to start with,” Pierre Beaudoin, the company’s chief operating officer, says of the high grades.

The company says infill drilling will help confirm the estimated widths and grades of the new zone, and 17 core drills — one of which drills from underground — operate at Las Chispas.

The high-grade footprint of Area 118 is an estimated 300 metres along strike by 125 metres high, and includes two intersecting veins: Las Chispas and Giovanni.

An updated resource estimate that could include mineralization from Area 118 is expected in the second quarter of next year, along with the results of a feasibility study scheduled for completion in the first half of 2020. A construction decision will follow the feasibility study.

A resource estimate in February for Las Chispas shows an indicated resource of 1 million tonnes grading 6.98 grams gold per tonne and 711 grams silver per tonne for 224,900 contained oz. gold and 22.8 million contained oz. silver. Inferred resources stand at 3.6 million tonnes grading 3.32 grams gold and 333 grams silver for 388,300 contained oz. gold and 38.9 million contained

| Updated resource estimate expected in second-quarter 2020

oz. silver.

Eric Fier, the company’s CEO, says the team is “particularly excited” that discovery hole 19-118 was drilled in the Las Chispas area, which, until now, came after the high-grade mineralization delineated in the Babicanora area, less than 1 km away.

The hole also surpassed the previous record intercept at Babicanora of 9 metres grading 6,336 grams silver equivalent.

The current drill program focuses on the Las Chispas and Giovanni veins to expand high-grade mineralization by stepping out from historic underground workings along the down-plunging mineralized trend towards previously unmined areas.

The results are based on 23 holes, 13 of which establish a footprint for this newly defined high-grade zone within a lower horizon of the Las Chispas and Giovanni veins.

“Las Chispas and Giovanni are among the many targets we are working on. They are only two of the several areas of focus,” Beaudoin says.

The recent discovery points to untested potential to add high-grade resources, Fier says. High-grade mineralization in Area 118 also suggests the potential to extend the production profile as outlined in the first five years of a preliminary economic assessment released in May. Beaudoin says the PEA is “pretty positive” for the first four years, but the grade starts to decline thereafter.

The latest drill results offer “some real interesting possibilities” beyond the fourth year.

The PEA forecast the project will produce an average of 5.4 million oz. silver and 55,700 oz. gold a year.

During the first four years, production would come in at 7.6 million oz. silver and 81,600 oz. gold at allin sustaining costs of US$4.89 per equivalent oz. silver.

Initial capex is pegged at US$100 million, with a nine-month payback period based on metal prices of US$16.68 per oz. silver and US$1,269 per oz. gold. The after-tax net pres-

ent value is projected at US$407 million at a 5% discount rate, and 78% internal rate of return.

The PEA envisioned an 8.5-year mine life and a production rate of 1,250 tonnes per day that will require at least 11 underground working faces to feed the process plant, before ramping up to 15 working faces by the fifth year.

The PEA assumes that miners will use cut-and-fill methods and split blasting in narrower stopes.

This assumption might change in the feasibility study.

While the company has returned its best drill hole to date, it does not mean that it can rest on its laurels, Beaudoin says. “One hole doesn’t make a mine.”

Exploration efforts will continue to focus on outlining the 36 veins the company has identified. The priority veins targeted include Area 118, Babi Vista, Babi Sur and Babi Norte Northwest.

“The large majority of all the company’s efforts are on Las Chispas,” Beaudoin says. “It is one of the best gold-silver assets in world.”

More than 2 km of development underground, of which more than 500 metres exists in the vein, has been completed so far.

The company is sampling and stockpiling mineralized material and expects to have up to 25,000 tonnes on the stockpile by the end of 2019.

On Dec. 3, SilverCrest announced an $80 million bought-deal financing (11 million common shares priced at $7.28 each). The funds will be used for exploration and development work at Las Chispas.

One area of focus is grade reconciliation. According to Beaudoin, while the grade in the resource estimate and the PEA is good, “the grade that we [have] mined so far is two times better than the estimate from the resource model. So obviously, there is something going on with grade reconciliation.”

In October, the company announced that underground, high-

grade vein sampling results showed positive reconciliation, compared to the resource model for the Babicanora vein in Area 51. The weighted average grade of underground-sampling results in the Babicanora vein was 2,284 grams per equivalent tonne silver. The estimated grade of the actual mined vein was 2,209 grams per equivalent tonne silver, while the February resource-modelled grade was 892 grams per equivalent tonne silver. This is a 148% difference in silver-equivalent grade between the mined vein and the resource model.

The positive difference owed to the presence of a high-grade clay shear zone within the vein that was not recovered in core drilling; a part of the mined vein that was not intersected in previous exploration drilling; greater consistency in the quartz-argentite part of the vein than previously modelled; and higher-grade mineralization typical in narrow epithermal-type veins.

The tonnage difference — based on vein width — between the actual mined Babicanora vein and the resource-modelled grade saw a 33% decrease to 4,170, from 6,226 tonnes.

Beaudoin says vein mining and grade reconciliation are a “significant de-risking effort,” as it helps the company validate the resource model, access mineralized material for metallurgical test work, and evaluate ground control and mining methods.

The grade reconciliation efforts also include studies on the nugget effect by reviewing its assaying method, which could also positively affect the resource estimation.

Grade reconciliation aside, the latest assays have generated positive valuation from analysts.

Analyst Don DeMarco of National Bank of Canada says hole 19-118 is the best so far, and that “Las Chispas shows prolific exploration potential.”

Ryan Thompson with BMO Capital Markets says the company’s aggressive exploration campaign should contribute ounces to the resource inventory and push the lower-grade

areas of the property further back in the mine life.

Mark Mihaljevic with RBC Capital Markets expects a positive reaction from the market. While the company has focused on the high-grade Babicanora area, he says the recent success at Las Chispas will provide more room for exploration upside, and could show the prospective nature of the property as a whole.

DeMarco, Thompson and Mihaljevic have “outperform” ratings on the stock and a 12-month target price of $9.50 per share.

Philip Ker of PI Financial says the discovery adds high-grade tonnes that are vital for a sustainable, elevated grade profile beyond the initial five years of mine life. As drilling continues to show upside across the property, he says that “this potential growth supports our outlook and assumption of a further 40 million equivalent oz. silver to be discovered.”

Craig Stanley of Eight Capital says that SilverCrest will attract considerable interest from silver and gold producers given the high grades, robust economics and an average annual production of 10 million equivalent oz. silver per year, as the PEA has forecast. But he also notes that an acquisition is more likely if a decline in silver and gold prices lowers the share price and market capitalization.

“Management expects to make a production decision after the feasibility study in second-quarter 2020,” Stanley writes. “Once a favourable decision is made, management has indicated it would spur any acquisition inquiries until after production commences, and the share price re-rates.”

Both Ker and Stanley rate the stock a “buy” and have a 12-month target price of $10 per share.

At press time, SilverCrest shares were trading at $7.58 apiece within a 52-week range of $2.93 to $8.73. The company has 92 million shares outstanding for a $699-million market capitalization. TNM

Troilus boosts gold resources QUEBEC

| More drilling in store at junior’s flagship project

BY JEAN LIAN jlian@northernminer.com

S

ingle-asset company Troilus Gold (TSX: TLG; US-OTC: CHXMF) has updated the resource estimate for its wholly owned Troilus gold project, 170 km north of Chibougamau, Quebec.

Indicated resources for the project stand at 159.1 million tonnes grading 0.78 gram gold per tonne, 0.09% copper and 1.19 grams silver per tonne for 3.97 million contained oz. gold, 301.15 million contained lb. copper and 6.07 million contained oz. silver.

Inferred resources add 52.7 million tonnes grading 0.9 gram gold per tonne, 0.08% copper and 1.01 grams silver for 1.53 million contained oz. gold, 94.89 million lb. copper and 1.71 million oz. silver.

The updated estimate, which represents a 20% increase in the indicated category from the 2018 resource estimate, is based on more than 36,000 metres of drilling in 81 holes, conducted from February to July. This is in addition to the 36,000 metres in 91 holes that the company drilled in August last year.

“We are now sitting on a 6.4 million oz. global resource that puts us as one of the largest developing gold assets in Quebec,” the company’s CEO Justin Reid says.

The updated resource estimate is based on two zones: Z87 and J (comprising J4 and J5). Mineralization at the Z87 zone is hosted in breccias and amphibolite-grade metamorphic rocks within a much

broader, 4.5 km by 400-metre metamorphosed diorite known as the Troilus diorite. The mineral bodies in the J zone are hosted in the northern continuity of the Troilus diorite.

“The J zone is open at depth, and we are finding some of our best grades and thicknesses approach the bottom of the pit, which is open to the northeast, and also in the shallow zone between the J zone and Z87,” Reid says.

The J4 pit has been mined to 150 metres’ depth, while the Z87 pit has been explored to a depth of 350 metres. “The orebody hadn’t really been tested at depth,” he adds.

The saddle zone between the Z87 and J zones also provide untested opportunities.

Blake Hylands, the company’s senior vice-president of exploration, says the latest drill results confirm that the mineralization at Troilus extends beyond the boundaries of the historic pits. The most significant contribution to the updated resource estimate comes from the J zone, where the pit-constrained potential has increased substantially and was “a key objective” of this year’s drill program.

The company embarked on a small drill program at the end of November. This seven-hole diamond-drill

he mining sector is facing a Darwinian moment, delegates at the first annual Technology and Innovation in Mining conference in Toronto heard in September.

Just as species deal with changes in their climate, food sources or other circumstances, miners dealing with mounting cost, social and technical pressures must innovate if they want to survive, research group AMIRA International managing director Joe Cucuzza said.

“If you look at Darwinian evolution, there are more species that go extinct than actually quickly adapt,” Cucuzza told the conference. “The point is that in our industry, we need to adapt quickly.

Those that are slow to adapt, unfortunately, are going to go extinct.”

ith Canadians looking ahead to a federal election on Oct. 19, The Northern Miner submitted mining-related questions to the leaders of the four major political parties running across Canada. The following are the answers from the Liberal Party of Canada leader Justin Trudeau and Green Party of Canada leader Elizabeth May and their parties: The Northern Miner: In recent years the federal government has streamlined environmental permitting for miners by trying to avoid duplicating provincial efforts. Do you support this approach? Does the federal government have a unique role to play in avoiding catastrophic tailings dam failures, such as the Mount Polley spill in B.C. in 2014?

Justin Trudeau/Liberal Party: The Harper government has eroded the credibility of Canada’s environmental reviews by narrowing their application, limiting public participation and slashing the capacity of the federal government to protect the environment.

program covering 2,500 metres will test numerous expansion targets at Z86 South — an area 3.5 km south of the mine that had historically showed significant mineralization, with intercepts of 36 metres grading 1.23 grams gold and 18 metres of 1.06 grams gold.

A drilling program covering 20,000 metres to define existing resources on the main mine property is planned for 2020. “Next year is a huge year for us, both from the drilling and engineering side,” Reid says.

Hylands says he expects the results of the company’s 2020 program “will show additional growth potential of an already significant mineral resource estimate, and we will draw on our enhanced geological understanding to further explore the belt.”

Baseline studies for the environmental impact assessment of the project are nearing completion.

The company plans to complete a prefeasibility study in the second half of 2020. “Then we will be moving towards various production scenarios,” Reid says.

The company acquired the project in 2016 from First Quantum Minerals (TSX: FM).

First Quantum had bought the mine in 2013 from Inmet Mining, which operated an open-pit operation at Troilus from 1996 to 2009, producing more than 2 million oz. gold and nearly 70,000 tonnes copper.

“We got very lucky. We acquired what everybody considered to be an exhausted asset,” Reid says. “Our team approached it with new eyes and by putting a new geological model on it, we have quickly added an incredible amount of ounces, and we expect that it is going to continue.”

The Troilus property sits along the eastern segment of the Frotêt-Evans greenstone belt in Quebec’s Abitibi region. It is underlain by a sequence of intermediate to mafic flows and breccia locally with felsic volcanic rocks, and comagmatic gabbro and ultramafic sills.

Exploration of the Troilus area started in 1958, after many erratic boulders containing copper and nickel anomalies were found.

Kerr Addison Mines staked two large blocks of claims that included the Troilus mine area in 1985 and 1987. Minnova entered into a fiftyfifty joint venture with Kerr Addison in 1988. Five years later, Metall Mining (which subsequently changed its name to Inmet Mining) acquired the property from both Minnova and Kerr Addison.

The company plans to operate a mine similar to the one that Inmet had run at Troilus. Reid says the plan, pending feasibility, is to start

with an open-pit mining scenario and eventually supplement with a smaller, underground operation.

“We are not reinventing the wheel,” Reid says. “What sets us apart is that this is a brownfield site, so we are not starting from scratch.”

When Troilus picked up the project it already had 65 km of power lines, 45 km of access roads, a 50-megawatt substation, a permitted tailings facility, a water-treatment plant, and a 60-person exploration camp.

Reid says the existing infrastructure will lower the capex and shorten the time needed to get the required permitting for the project.

“We have a high degree of confidence that we can go right to the more advanced level of engineering,” he says, citing the project’s increased resources and the company’s understanding of the history and the costs of the past-producing mine.

The project’s location in miningfriendly Quebec is an advantage.

“We couldn’t be in a better jurisdiction,” Reid says, noting Quebec’s long mining history and abundance of skilled labour. “The First Nations are very comfortable with our project [too], because Troilus as a past producer was a very large employer in the region.”

Richard Gray, an analyst with Cormark Securities, rates Troilus as a “buy” and has a 12-month target price of $2.90 per share, citing the increased resources and existing “excellent infrastructure” that should provide Troilus with significant cost savings and de-risk the development and permitting time line for the project.

The company is also remarkably undervalued, Gray says. “The project has the size and scope to garner significant re-rating as the company achieves further de-risking catalysts over the next 12 to 18 months, or become an attractive acquisition target for senior and mid-tier producers looking for large and undervalued resources in what is one of the safest jurisdictions in the world.”

Pierre Vaillancourt, an analyst with Haywood Securities, is also encouraged by the project’s robust resource, which adds mine life and improves the optionality of the deposit.

“However, we look for infill drilling and testing of new targets to improve the grade and depth of the resource, and ultimately, the economics of the project,” says Vaillancourt, who has a “buy” rating on the stock and a 12-month target price of $2.

At press time, Troilus was trading at 67¢ per share within a 52-week range of 49¢ to $1.16. The company has 69 million common shares outstanding for a $46-million market capitalization. TNM

M A R K E T N EWS TORONTO STOCK EXCHANGE / NOVEMBER 25–29 The S&P/TSX Composite Index rose 0.5% to close at 17,040.20. The S&P/TSX Global Mining Index gained 0.46% to 77, and the S&P/TSX Global Base Metals Index rose 0.34% to 102.58. The S&P/TSX Global Gold Index increased 1.12% to 243.66 and spot gold moved 0.2% higher, or US$2.90 per oz., to US$1,464 per ounce.

Shares of Endeavour Mining jumped $1.42, or 5.93%, to $25.37 apiece. The company announced indicated resource estimates for its Kari West and Kari Center discoveries near the company’s Houndé gold mine in Burkina Faso. Kari West and Kari Center’s combined 1 million oz. gold in the indicated category lifts Houndé’s total measured and indicated resources 32% to 4.1 million oz. gold, excluding mine depletion this year. The resource estimate follows a maiden resource estimate the company released a year ago of 1 million indicated oz. at its Kari Pump discovery. The Kari anomaly, 7 km from the Houndé processing plant, extends over a 3 to 6 km area. The Kari area has been the company’s exploration focus for the past two years, with more than 350,000 metres drilled. A 145,000-metre drilling program to extend mineralization at the Kari deposits and explore targets within 10 km of the Houndé processing plant will begin soon.

Torex Gold Resources climbed 97¢ per share, or 5.1%, to $19.99. The 2019 drill program at the Sub-Sill deposit at its El Limon–Guajes complex in Mexico has extended mineralization 300 metres below existing reserves. The complex, which includes three open pits and the Sub-Sill underground mine, reached commercial production in April 2016. Highlights from the latest drill results include 6 metres grading 35.1 grams gold per tonne from 282 metres in hole 156, 4 metres grading 21.6 grams gold from 606 metres in hole 135, 6 metres grading 19.5 grams gold from 443 metres in hole 139, 5 metres grading 15.7 grams gold from 578 metres in hole 132, and 13 metres grading 13.8 grams gold TSX MOST ACTIVE ISSUES

from 494 metres in hole 47. Mineralization at Sub-Sill remains open at depth and along strike. Company president and CEO Fred Stanford says Sub-Sill has contributed more than 60,000 oz. gold production in the first three quarters of this year.

News of Kirkland Lake Gold’s proposed $4.9-billion, all-share acquisition of Detour Gold sent the gold miner’s shares down $7.53,

or 11.9%, to $55.79. Kirkland Lake owns the Macassa mine in northern Ontario and the Fosterville mine in Australia — two of the highest-grade gold mines in the world.

Detour Gold owns the low-grade Detour open-pit mine in northeastern Ontario.

Detour has a 23-year mine life. Kirkland Lake says the transaction will boost free cash flow, mineral reserves and production. TNM

TSX VENTURE EXCHANGE / NOVEMBER 25–29 The S&P/TSX Venture Composite Index gained 0.34% to 531.81. Spot gold finished at US$1,464 per oz., up 0.2%.

Shares of New Pacific Metals jumped 36¢, or 8.37%, to $4.66. The company recently announced interim financial results for the three months ended Sep. 30. Net income attributable to equity holders of the company was $1.29 million, or 1¢ per share, compared to a net loss of $752,583 or 1¢ per share in the three months ended Sept. 30 2018. The results were mainly affected by greater income from investments, and a $176,342 foreign-exchange gain. The company also closed a boughtdea l f inancing under written by BMO Capital Markets on Oct. 25, raising $17.2 million by issuing 4.3 million common shares at $4 apiece.

K92 Mining climbed 35¢, or 16.1%, to $2.52. The company announced the latest diamond-drill results from the Kora North Extension at its Kainantu gold mine in Papua New Guinea. The 10 holes, completed from surface and underground at the Kora North deposit, included two holes — 147 and 147A — that are among t he h ig hest-g rade i ntersec t ions ever drilled at Kora or the Kainantu mine.

Hole 147A returned 13 metres of 288.73

A volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) target found on the southern part of its Dixie Halo property in Red Lake, Ont., sent BTU Metals shares soaring 139% to 22¢ per share. The company reported that partial results have been received for hole 13, which show elevated copper, gold and silver. The Dixie Halo gold project totals 147.7 sq. km and borders much of Great

Bear Resources’ Dixie project. “Drilling of holes 12 and 13 have identified polymetallic mineralization, including chalcopyrite, copper and gold, which is extremely rare,” the company said in a news release. BTU has done a Versatile Time Domain Electromagnetic survey that it says “has provided further evidence of a potential VMS target.” TNM
