t took two years, but mid-tier gold miner Eldorado Gold (TSX: ELD; NYSE: EGO) is finally divesting all of its development and production assets in China with the announced sale of its White Mountain and Tanjianshan gold mines, and the development-stage Eastern Dragon gold project, to an affiliate of China's Yintai Resources (SHSZ: 000975) for US$600 million in cash.

Eldorado had been evaluating what to do with its Chinese gold portfolio since 2014, and was contemplating a listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. But the strategy shifted towards monetization in the past few months, with Eldorado president and CEO Paul Wright indicating on a May 12 conference call that there were “numerous approaches by companies looking to acquire [the assets].”

The transaction should close by December, though it is subject to various approvals, including Yintai shareholder approval. The agreement comprises a US$30-million deposit to be paid by Yintai, and a reverse break-fee of the same amount payable by Eldorado.

Eldorado reported 140,989 oz. gold produced at an average cashoperating cost of $603 per oz. during the first quarter, and registered a US$700,000 net loss. The company’s Chinese production portfolio accounted for 58,000 oz. gold.

oldcorp (TSX: G; NYSE: GG) has offered to buy Kaminak Gold (TSXV: KAM) in a $520-million, all-share deal to get its hands on the junior’s high-grade Coffee gold project in the Yukon.

The Coffee project is a structurally hosted hydrothermal gold deposit that sits within Yukon’s White Gold district, 130 km south of Dawson City, and 300 km northeast of Whitehorse.

Goldcorp, the world’s fourthlargest gold producer, became interested in Coffee after a January 2016 feasibility study and signed a confidential agreement with Kaminak in early March, Kaminak’s vice-president of corporate developSee KAMINAK / 2 PM40069240

analyst Tanya Jakusconek valuing White Mountain, Tanjianshan and Eastern Dragon at a combined US$390 million, assuming a US$1,275 per oz. gold price and 5% discount rate. Scotiabank says the deal is “positive,” because it provides Eldorado with “significant additional financial flexibility, as it considers its near- to medium-term capital allocation plans.”

What will Eldorado do with its ample and growing treasury? The company already ended March with US$236 million in cash and equivalents, and limited short-term debt obligations.

Eldorado is scoring another

US$300 million by selling its Jinfeng mine to a wholly owned subsidiary of China National Group.

Adding its pro-forma cash and money from the Chinese assets, Eldorado would soon sit on US$1.1 billion.

The company’s near-term development portfolio is headlined by a pair of polymetallic projects in Greece — Olympias and Skouries — where it will invest US$32 million this year. Eldorado has had its problems with Greek regulators, but it received approvals in early May to restart underground construction at Skouries.

ment Tony Reda says.

The study — led by JDS Energy and Mining — outlined an attractive heap-leach, open-pit, low-cost operation at Coffee. With a 10-year life, a mine could produce an average 184,000 oz. gold annually at all-in sustaining costs of US$550 per oz. gold. Estimated start-up costs are $317 million, with another $161 million in sustaining capital.

While Coffee has a global resource of 5 million oz., the study was based on an indicated resource of 3 million oz. (63.7 million tonnes grading 1.45 grams gold per tonne), which includes 2.2 million oz. in reserves (46.4 million tonnes at 1.45 grams gold).

suspect, there was a lot of corporate interest … with the recent move in gold price, the feasibility study and the positive sentiment returning to the gold space, [many] mining companies saw their share prices go up in value and there was some competitiveness with the asset.

mously approved by Kaminak’s board.

The major is offering 0.10896 of a share for each Kaminak share held. This implies a $2.62 value to each Kaminak share and a 40% premium over the junior’s 20-day, volume-weighted average share price, and a 33% premium over its May 11 closing price.

“There’s an immediate attractive premium for shareholders,” Reda says. “You’re locking in a win.

“Regardless of how great your team is or how great your asset is, permitting and building — if we look at all the precedents out there — it could always be a challenging time. This secures the value for our shareholders, and gives them liquidity and exposure to Goldcorp’s asset base … and their operational capabilities.”

In a release, Goldcorp’s CEO David Garofalo said the purchase fits the company’s “strategy of partnering with junior exploration companies to identify and develop mining districts with significant exploration potential that is expected to grow our net asset value per share.”

Garofalo was not available to comment more on the deal before press time.

The Coffee land package covers 600 sq. km and shows “potential for near-mine discoveries, with mineralization remaining open along strike and at depth,” Goldcorp says.

Kaminak has only explored 20% of the Coffee project, Reda says, adding that Goldcorp with its treasury could further unlock the project’s geological potential. “They have the wherewithal to take this project through, and they have the wherewithal to capture the exploration upside at Coffee.”

The deal requires approval from two-thirds of Kaminak shareholders to close. Directors, officers and certain shareholders holding 27.5% of Kaminak’s shares have already agreed to vote for Goldcorp's offer.

“On first glance, we view the deal value as fair, although we see room for moderate interloper risk despite the 27% shareholder lock up, given the lack of development-stage assets of the calibre of Coffee,” Raymond James analyst Phil Russo writes in a note.

The acquisition, which has a $20.3-million termination fee, would close by mid-August. TNM

Erdene's Bayan Khundii gold discovery in Mongolia EXPLORATION

| Gold values ‘significant and pervasive,’ follow-up drilling underway

mkeevil@northernminer.com VANCOUVER

rdene Resource Development’s (TSX: ERD; US-OTC: ERDCF) presence in Mongolia dates back to the late 1990s, and it has experienced the good and bad of the oft-volatile country. The company’s dedication could pay off, however, due to its wholly owned Bayan Khundii gold discovery and a clearer socio-political landscape, courtesy of Rio Tinto’s (NYSE: RIO) productive investment negotiations at its Oyu Tolgoi copper-gold mine.

Bayan Khundii has grown to prominence in the past year. The company has held a variety of mineral interests in Mongolia, but has recently leaned towards gold. Erdene had been advancing its Altan Nar project before regional prospecting changed the story.

Erdene's manager of corporate development Dawson Brisco, who worked on exploration programs in Mongolia for Erdene between 2005 and 2010, explained in an interview that Erdene's crews stepped out a little ways and mobilized to do mapping a year ago, and ran a rock-sampling survey over an area 20 km southeast of Altan Nar. “The gold values were significant and pervasive,” Brisco said. “Since there’s no glaciation in Mongolia, the grab samples are close to the source. It lit up like a light bulb, and we saw visible gold all over the place. It really wasn’t that long ago — Bayan Khundii has essentially become our priority and flagship overnight.”

1 2 3 4 5 7 8 9 10 16_MAY23_Main .indd 3

In late 2015, Erdene followed up on the geochemical results with a 695-metre program over 15 holes, which focused on a 500-by-400-metre area that includes the Striker and Gold Hill prospects. Results from the maiden campaign in December identified five gold mineralized zones and visible gold in “multiple intervals.”

Highlights from the program include: 26.4 metres grading 5.9 grams gold per tonne from 33 metres deep in hole 9; 35 metres of 5.7 grams gold from surface in hole 10; and 7 metres grading 27.5 grams gold from 14 metres deep in hole 1.

Bayan Khundii is a low-sulphidation epithermal gold system, where mineralization is associated with quartz veins and breccias within hematite-specularite veins and fractures, and disseminated within the altered host rocks.

“The host rock is predominantly volcanics, and it’s heavily mineralized in lower-grade gold. So you have these high-grade veins running through a slightly lower-grade host rock, and that means there could be two pulses of mineralization … that’s what we’re trying to figure out right now,” Brisco said.

In April Erdene announced a 3,500-metre drill program to follow up on initial results and test more prospect areas over a 1.7 km trend.

The exploration campaign is split into two phases: 1,800 metres at the core Striker and Golden Hill area; and 1,700-metres in regional targets.

Erdene released assays on the program’s first seven holes on May 9. Hole 17 cut 63 metres of 5.3 grams gold from 50 metres down-hole at

Striker; while 40 metres southeast, hole 22 intersected 27 metres of 1.9 grams gold from 54 metres deep.

The earlier results attracted interest from Sandstorm Gold (TSX: SSL; NYSE-MKT: SAND), which invested $2.5 million in Erdene in February. The financing includes: a $1-million private placement composed of 5 million Erdene shares at 20¢ per share, plus $1.5 million in Sandstorm shares in exchange for a 2% net smelter return royalty on Bayan Khundii and Altan Nar. “Mongolia took a knock on the chin in relation to the Oyu Tolgoi negotiations, but it’s now resolved … the government has realized the value of the mining industry, and that’s reflected in many of the regulatory changes that have come around over the past two years,” Brisco said.

“Over this recession period there just weren’t a lot of companies doing boots-on-the-ground exploration and making discoveries, but

that’s the Bayan Khundii story. It started from the desk and satellite imagery work to soil samples, and ultimately to the drill bit. It has definitely increased our ability to finance because there aren’t many companies out there talking about the country … there’s a growing level of excitement. People are looking for gold exploration stories to get behind,” he said.

Bayan Khundii's metallurgy looks good. According to tests in February, gold from samples is “free milling and amenable to conventional processing techniques.”

Erdene reported 99% gold recoveries from the higher-grade material using gravity and cyanide leach, while the lower-grade composite indicated 92% recoveries.

The company had just mobilized for the second regional phase of drilling at press time, and expects results from the regional program by mid-year.

“We haven’t even tested the t a r ge t s u nderc over, a nd t he high-resistivity goes with the alteration package,” Brisco said.

“Stepping out 1 k m northeast of the Striker area, we have a w indow of t he sa me volcanic lit hologies t hat we see in t he main zone poking up through that younger cover. It’s the same alteration signature, and they’re all hot with gold at the surface.

If you look at dept h t hroug h geophysics they have that same signature and style we see in the main zone.”

Erdene shares has traded within a 52-week range of 11¢ to 55¢, and jumped 191% — or 32¢ to start the year — en route to a 49¢-per-share close at press time.

The company has 115 million shares outstanding for a $61.3-million market capitalization, and reported $2.5 million in working capital at press time. TNM

Brazil’s anticorruption drive takes out Rousseff RECKONING

| Petrobras-related bribes and inflated contracts totalled US$12B

B

razil’s political and economic turmoil has grabbed headlines around the world, the culmination of years of toplevel judicial investigations and countrywide street protests against corruption in politics.

On May 12, a year and a half into her second term and after touching an approvalrating low of 9% last July, Brazilian President

BY JOHN CUMMING Dilma Rousseff was removed from office, jcumming@northernminer.com stepping down for 180 days to face an impeachment process that will examine whether she violated the country’s law on fiscal responsibility.

Vice-President Michel Temer has replaced Rousseff as Brazil’s leader, and he quickly assembled a government that many are describing as a 1990s-style “neoliberal” one. Meanwhile Rousseff and her supporters in the left-leaning Workers’ Party (PT) and beyond are defiant, and describe the past week’s events as a “non-military coup.”

More than half the members of Brazil’s multiparty Congress are being investigated as part of a massive corruption scandal revolving around state majority-owned oil and gas giant Petrobras.

While Petrobras was partly privatized in the 1990s by Brazil’s centrist government at the time, the PT government of Rousseff’s predecessor Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva steadily restored government control over Petrobras during his eight-year rule that ended in 2010.

Petrobras’ discovery of the massive, so-called “pre-salt” deepwater offshore oilfields in 2007 turned the question of who would own Petrobras and operate the newfound offshore discovery into a highly nationalistic one within Brazilian politics, as Petrobras embarked on the biggest corporate capex program in the world.

When the Brazilian government took control, Petrobras’ top executive positions were filled with PT party members and coalition partners, led by Paulo Roberto Costa, who secretly diverted funds valued at up to 3% of all contracts to the PT and its coalition partners.

With such a large capex program underway, this amounted to billions of dollars in inflated contracts and bribes, with corrupt Petrobras directors colluding with contractors that included some of Brazil’s biggest construction companies.

Some Petrobras directors accumulated illegal funds of more than US$100 million in Swiss bank accounts, while others bought pricey art collections.

Last year, investigators revealed that — mostly when Rousseff was chairman of the Petrobras board from 2003 to 2010 — at least US$1.7 billion was spent on bribes, and losses to the state through bribes, inflated contracts and related misspending totalled somewhere between US$8.3 billion and US$12 billion.

Investigators have so far charged 179 people with crimes tied to the Petrobras scandal, and have convicted 93.

The current investigation of Rousseff and her possible violation of the country’s fiscal responsibility laws is pretty mild in comparison, and has to do with the pedaladas (“bicycle pedal”) process of having the government take off-the-book, short-term loans from government-owned banks — with the borrowed funds mainly used to subsidize big business — but then not being able to pay them back as the government’s fiscal situation deteriorated, due to the fall in commodities markets and the deep bite of corruption at Petrobras.

This in turn compromised the activities of Brazil’s central bank and led to high inflation rates, such as 10% in 2014.

This latest political drama in Brazil is taking place against a backdrop of a ballooning deficit, sharply lower oil prices, layoffs and chronic structural inefficiencies in the Brazilian economy. The country’s gross domestic product is set to drop 3–4% this year after having grown steadily from 2003–14 in tandem with the global commodities boom, and Brazil’s unemployment rate has swelled to 12%, as a quarter of the population live below the poverty line.

It’s not all gloom in Brazil’s commodities industries, though. Brazil’s biggest miner, Vale, surprised the market in late April with a relatively strong first quarter — posting its first profit in three quarters — that set it up as the best-performing major iron-ore miner this year, thanks to cost cuts, rebounding iron ore prices and a stronger real.

Vale’s net income in the first three months of 2016 was US$1.8 billion, compared with a US$3.1-billion loss a year ago.

While falling oil prices have walloped Petrobras, Vale has enjoyed lower freight costs to send its iron ore by ship from Brazil to China — a longer distance to China than for its rivals BHP Billiton, Rio Tinto and Fortescue Metals, from their massive export operations in Australia.

Year-over-year, Vale saw a 32% cost reduction in delivering iron to its Chinese customers. TNM

Silver Institute: Demand hit record 1.2B oz. in 2015 FACTS ‘N’ FIGURES

| Largest market deficit ever recorded, institute says

The following is an edited summary from the Silver Institute, based on findings in its World Silver Survey 2016. For more information, please visit www.silverinstitute.org.

T

he silver market saw record demand in 2015, with the jewellery, coin and bar, and photovoltaic sectors posting new highs, helping to boost total silver demand to 1.2 billion oz. last year.

Silver supply to the market was lower, led by the continued weakness in silver scrap sales. Last year’s supply and demand scenario led to the third successive annual silver market deficit — reaching 129.8 million oz. — which is more than 60% larger than 2014, and the third largest on record.

Silver demand Globally, silver jewellery fabrication increased for the third straight year to post a fresh 226.5 million oz. high. This increase was largely achieved on the back of an impressive 16% rise from both India and Thailand, while North America posted a 5% annual increase. These gains were partly offset by a sizable contraction in Chinese jewellery off-take. Total silverware fabrication enjoyed its third successive annual rise to an estimated 62.9 million oz., in a 10-year high.

JEWELLERY, COIN AND BAR, AND PHOTOVOLTAIC DEMAND HIT HISTORIC LEVELS. The largest component of physical silver demand — industrial applications, which accounted for 50% of total physical silver demand last year — was 4% lower, totalling 588.7 million oz. silver.

This drop largely owed to weaker fabrication demand in developing countries and a stagnant global economy. On a regional basis, modest increases in industrial demand were posted in the U.S. and Japan, which are the second- and third-largest sources of industrial demand. Electrical and electronics use declined 10% last year to 246.7 million oz., due to slower economic growth in developing countries and the continued weakness in computer sales.

There were several highlights within the industrial segment.

Silver demand for photovoltaic applications rose 23% in 2015 to 77.6 million oz., marking the second straight year of increases in the sector, driven by strong growth in Chinese solar panel installations. Silver demand for ethylene oxide (EO) grew 103% to 10.2 million oz. silver. GFMS estimates that 137.5 million oz. silver resided in EO plants around the world at year-end 2015, equivalent to 16% of last year’s silver mine production.

Silver’s use in brazing alloys

and solders fell 5 million oz., and photography demand slid 4% last year. The pace of decline in photography slowed considerably to its lowest rate since 2004, as digital technology in the photography industry approaches maturity.

Silver investment and price Identifiable investment, which includes physical bar investment, coins and medals, and exchange-traded product (ETP) build, climbed 16% to a nearrecord high in 2015. Silver coin and bar investment surged 24% to reach 292.3 million oz., the highest annual demand level in GFMS’ records, overtaking the previous high in 2013. Coin and bar demand accounted for 25% of total physical demand in 2015 for the highest market share on record, and up from just 5% a decade earlier. Silver coin and medal demand amounted to 134.1 million oz. of demand last year, due to unprecedented growth in several markets, notably the U.S. and India.

Holdings in silver-backed ETPs declined 17.7 million oz. in 2015, finishing the year at 617.8 million oz. But demand in this investment category has rebounded, with ETPs reaching 640 million oz. at the end of this year’s first quarter.

A challenging year for nearly all commodities — along with a continued slowdown in Chinese economic growth and a stronger U.S. dollar — led to a lower average annual silver price of US$15.68 per oz. in 2015. However, this lower price environment helped boost physical demand, particularly as long-term investors viewed lower prices as entry points in expectation of future price appreciation.

Silver supply Global silver mine production growth slowed to 2% in 2015 and reached a record 886.7 million oz. silver. The mine production growth was attributable to stronger output in Peru, Argentina, Russia and India, while Canada, Australia and China had lower mine production, with the latter decreasing output 3%. Primary silver mine production grew 5%, and accounted for 30% of global silver mine supply.

The overall slowdown in mine production last year is expected to continue.

Primar y silver co-product cash costs plus capex fell 11% to US$11.74 per oz. silver. This drop was driven by weaker local currencies, aggressively lower capex and lower fuel prices. The producer silver hedge book grew 7.8 million oz. in 2015, as fresh hedging more than offset maturing contracts.

Scrap supply was down 13% at 146.1 million oz., for the lowest volume recorded since 1992, and the fourth consecutive year of decline. Behind the decline were fewer collectors active in the market, and some holding back material awaiting higher prices.

Government silver sales were again essentially nonexistent. TNM

TNM parent Glacier Media donates to Fort Mac Enrollment opened under the Extractive Sector Transparency Measures Act COMMENTARY

| Still unclear if U.S. substitutions will be acceptable

BY KEITH R. CHATWIN, IVAN T. GRBESIC AND CHRISTOPHER YUNG

SPECIAL TO THE NORTHERN MINER

atural Resources Canada (NRCAN) has opened the enrollment process for companies who meet the definition of a “reporting entity” under the Extractive Sector Transparency Measures Act (ESTMA).

Reporting entities can enrol by downloading a “reporting entity contact form” available at www. nrcan.gc.ca/mining-materials/estma/18186 that must be completed and submitted prior to submitting an ESTMA report. Upon enrollment, reporting entities will receive an ID number and be notified of new information published on NRCAN’s website.

Enrollment is not required until the initial ESTMA reports are due.

But NRCAN is encouraging early enrolment. Annual reports under ESTMA are due 150 days after a reporting entity’s financial year end, beginning with financial years commencing after June 1, 2015. For example, companies with a Dec. 31 year-end will be required to submit their first annual report by May 30, 2017. Reporting of payments made to aboriginal governments or entities is deferred for two years until June 1, 2017.

NRCAN has also finalized the ESTMA implementation tools, which consist of: • A guidance document, which provides general information on who is subject to ESTMA, which entities must report payments under ESTMA and what payments should be reported under ESTMA; • A technical reporting specifications document, which provides information on the mechanics of reporting under ESTMA (including specifying accounting methods, reporting currency and reporting in-kind payments); and • A template for reports under ESTMA. As described in our earlier blog posts available at www.canadianmininglaw.com the stated purpose of ESTMA is to foster better transparency to ensure that resource extractive industries support proper development in the countries where they operate, while at the same time making it harder to conceal illicit payments.

A reporting entity under ESTMA refers to a corporation or other type of business enterprise engaged in the commercial development of oil, gas or minerals, which is also: listed on a stock exchange in Canada; or has a place of business, does business or

1 2 3 4 5 7 8 9 10 16_MAY23_Main .indd 5

has assets in Canada and, for at least one of its two most recent financial years, meets at least two of the three thresholds, has at least $20 million in assets, has at least $40 million in revenue or employs an average of at least 250 employees.

Since we wrote about the implementation tools in August 2015, there have been no updates to NRCAN’s assessment as to the substitutability of other jurisdictions’ reporting requirements.

Reports conforming to the requirements under the European Union’s Accounting and Transparency Directives remain the only acceptable substitutes under ESTMA. It remains to be seen whether similar U.S. rules under Section 1504 of the Dodd-Frank Act will also be an acceptable substitute once finalized. These rules were most recently reproposed on Dec. 11, 2015, and have since been subject to two comment periods, the last ending on Feb. 16, 2016. Under the most recent timetable available, the U.S. rules are expected to be adopted in June 2016.

If NRCAN determines the final U.S. rules are an acceptable substitute, reports prepared in compliance with the U.S. rules may be submitted to the Minister of Natural Resources as a substitute for a report prepared under ESTMA. — Keith Chatwin is a partner in Stikeman Elliott’s Calgary office, whose practice involves a broad array of securities and general corporate transactions, ranging from public and private debt and equity financing to mergers and acquisitions (M&A), corporate restructuring, and shareholder activism and defence.

RELIEF FUND

he JuneWarren-Nickle’s Energy Group (JWN) and its parent company Glacier Media (TSX: GVC) (also The Northern Miner's parent), are donating $50,000 toward Red Cross efforts in the wildfire-ravaged city of Fort McMurray, Alta.

The donation is also on behalf of other individual Glacier business units, which will undertake their own awareness and fundraising efforts to help the city and its residents rebuild their community and their lives, JWN president and Glacier executive vice-president Bill Whitelaw said.

Glacier, as one of Canada’s leading media and information services companies, has also created an integrated crowdfunding campaign, with all proceeds going to the Red Cross efforts, at www. fundaid.ca/fortmac.

Glacier is deeply involved in communities across Western Canada with community newspapers and business information services, Glacier’s vice-president of content and audience development Tim Shoults noted.

“This way, we can rally our readers, our customers and our communities to get behind the Red Cross efforts in a way that allows contributions of all sizes,” Shoults said.

From an energy perspective, it’s important for Canadians to have a sense beyond the headlines of how important Fort McMurray is to the Canadian economy, Whitelaw said. “It’s just not an Alberta dynamic … all Canadians need to step up and help get this engine running on all cylinders again, putting people, companies and their welfare front and centre.

“Canada’s oilsands sector is a key part of our energy practice at JWN … we know these companies and these communities well.

Like all other organizations that have stepped up with support, we want these folks to know we have their back.”

JWN produces the Oilsands Review and Oilsands Navigator as part of a broad portfolio of oilsands products and services.

“As with our industry association partners such as the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers and Petroleum Services Association of Canada, we’re putting our contribution towards the Red Cross to ensure the dollars we donate get amplified through provincial and federal contributions,” he added.

Glacier’s other business practices in mining, agriculture, environmental services and community media are also stepping up to raise awareness of the challenges at Fort McMurray and the surrounding area in the coming weeks and months, Whitelaw said.

“In one way or another, all of our businesses touch Fort McMurray and Wood Buffalo. Besting the fire was just the first among many challenges still to come.”

Meanwhile, the Mining Association of Canada (MAC) — representing mining operations active in almost every Canadian jurisdiction — is making a $50,000 contribution to the Red Cross in Alberta to support those devastated by the wildfire.

“Fort McMurray is a major Canadian mining town. MAC members — several of which are active in the oilsands mining industry — wanted the association to make this gesture of support ... countless Canadians and

Canadian businesses will be doing the same over the coming days and weeks to help the individuals and families who have lost their homes,” MAC’s president and CEO Pierre Gratton said.

The Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum is making similar efforts to help those in and around Fort McMurray.

To date, pledges for contributions from CIM and its societies exceed $65,000.

The CIM says this number could grow, as appeals go out to all CIM Societies and Branches. Donations will be made through the Canadian Red Cross in Alberta.

“The Canadian mining community is a close-knit one, with a big heart, and it is so inspiring to see this spirit of compassion and camaraderie in action,” CIM executive director Jean Vavrek said.

“We are a resilient community, and it is in times like this that we need to pull together,” CIM presi-

dent Michael Winship added. “Our heartfelt thoughts and prayers go out to all of those impacted by this tragedy.”

Teck Resources (TSX: TCK.B; NYSE: TCK) is donating $75,000 to the Canadian Red Cross to support emergency efforts relating to the wildfires, and another $25,000 to match donations made by Teck employees.

“Our thoughts are with all those impacted by the devastating wildfires in the Fort McMurray area,” Teck president and CEO Donald Lindsay said. “Teck will continue to work with our partners in the region to identify opportunities where we can offer support during this incredibly difficult time.”

Teck’s donation to the Canadian Red Cross will be made through the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers (CAPP) Energy Together: Fort McMurray Wildfire Relief initiative. Teck is a member of CAPP. TNM

MAY 23–29, 2016 / THE NORTHERN MINER

M A R K E T N EWS TORONTO STOCK EXCHANGE / MAY 9–13 The ferocious wildfires in Alberta’s oil patch around Fort McMurray knocked an estimated 1 million barrels a day offline, prompting many economists to lower their 2016 gross domestic product growth targets for the entire country. A Bloomberg survey of 10 economists concluded the blaze would trim growth this year by one-tenth of a percent. The Toronto stock market rose 0.3% to 13,748.58.

Most indexes ended lower, however, with the S&P/TSX Capped Diversified Metals & Mining Index falling 6.9% to 493.31 and the S&P/TSX Global Mining Index losing 4% to 56.03. Spot gold fell US$14.90 per oz., or 1.2% to US$1,272.80, sending the S&P/TSX Global Gold Index down 1.8% to 224.43.

Record results from Richmont Mines’ Island gold mine in Ontario led to strong first-quarter numbers and lifted the company’s shares 90¢ to $10.96. The Island mine produced 26,589 oz. gold during the three months ended March 31, a 147% increase over the same period in 2015. Increased production was due to higher-than-expected grades of 11.31 grams gold per tonne and record mill throughput of 834 tonnes per day. The company reported cash costs of US$587 per oz. and all-in sustaining costs of US$801 per oz., for an 18% and 12% decrease. Earnings reached $8.5 million, or 15¢ per share, which is an increase of 85% and 67% year-on-year.

Richmont also posted net free cash flow of $1.1 million, or 2¢ per share, compared to neutral net free cash flow the year before. Richmont held $61.2 million in cash as of March 31, and said that with its anticipated cash flow from operations, its treasury should fully fund its accelerated development program at the gold mine this year.

Shares of Pan American Silver jumped 74¢ to $20.25 on the back of first-quarter results. Silver production rose 6% to 6.42 million oz. during the three months ended March 31, while production increased 10% to 41,200 oz. gold. Pan American Silver lowered consolidated cash costs 31% to US$8.03 per payable oz. silver, net of by-product credits, and trimmed consolidated all-in sustaining costs per silver ounce sold by 8% to US$13.12, TSX MOST ACTIVE ISSUES

the junior’s shares 35% to 88¢.

Kaminak Gold was a front runner in the value-added category, gaining 60¢ to a $2.50-per-share close after announcing that Goldcorp is offering to buy the junior in a $520-million, all-share deal.

The acquisition would give Goldcorp Kaminak’s heap-leachable Coffee gold project, 130 km south of Dawson City, Yukon, which the junior has been advancing towards development.

The major is offering 0.10896 of a share for each Kaminak share held. This implies a $2.62 value to each Kaminak share and a 40% premium over the junior’s 20-day, volume-weighted average share price, and a 33% premium over its May 11 closing price.

Australia-based Macarthur Minerals saw heavy trading before closing up 4¢ at 16¢ per share, on news that it has identified potentially

lithium-bearing pegmatites over a number of its exploration leases in Western Australia’s Pilbara region.

The company collected rock-chip and biogeochemical samples during property reconnaissance and will use the data to design more comprehensive sampling programs.

The former iron ore seeker shifted to lithium exploration in February, and since then has picked up 1,084 sq. km in land packages across the Pilgangoora district, the eastern Pilbara, and the midwest region of Western Australia.

Rouge Resources jumped 32¢, or 640%, to a 37¢-per-share-close after announcing that Fiore Financial and the Radcliffe Foundation — both owned by mining financier Frank Giustra — acquired 8.3 million shares, or 18.6% of the company.

atthew Hughes found the Martha silver deposit while looking out the window of his pick-up truck.

It had just rained and a red line streaked across the dirt road in southern Argentina’s Deseado Massif.

The geologist stopped and took 10 samples. Nine had no value but one returned 500 grams of silver per tonne.

He took 30 more samples — one of which graded 5,000 grams silver — and then drilled a hole that returned a 6-metre intercept averaging 260,000 grams silver.

“The core came out almost blood red — it was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen come out of the ground,” recalls Hughes, who at the time of the discovery was working as a senior geologist for Yamana Resources, now called Yamana Gold (TSX: YRI; NYSE: AUY; LSE: YAU).

“It was the Mina Martha vein and we just followed it up into the hills, which were two football fields away, and it turned into a more massive vein, and that was it,” Hughes says.

“For a geologist it’s a dream come true, and I didn’t even have to get out of my truck to find it.”

Yamana went on to build an underground mine at Martha and

started direct-shipping ore from the mining operation to Quebec in late 1999, or early 2000. The average grade mined, Hughes says, was 2% silver, or 20,000 grams silver per tonne.

“When it started it was the richest silver mine in the world,” he says.

“We threw 5,000 grams silver per tonne into the waste dumps — that was our cut-off grade.”

Yamana sold Martha in 2001 to Coeur d’Alene Mines Corp., now Coeur Mining (TSX: CDM; NYSE: CDE).

“The first winter Yamana had an absolutely bizarre snowstorm and the mine had to close — and they weren’t doing well at the time,” Hughes says of his former employer, explaining its rationale for the sale to Coeur.

After Coeur acquired Martha it “made a killing” shipping ore from See HUNT / 8

the mine to processing facilities at its Cerro Bayo mine in Chile, Hughes says, until the provincial government of Argentina’s Santa Cruz province put pressure on the silver miner to process the ore locally. Coeur then spent $17 million to build a flotation mill and tailings facility, Hughes says.

The mine last produced silver in 2012, and according to Coeur’s 2013 annual report, Martha’s measured and indicated resources at the end of that year stood at 57,000 short tons grading 13.60 grams silver for 775,000 contained oz. silver. Inferred resources measured 204,000 short tons grading 4.75 grams silver for 969,000 oz. silver.

In early May Hunt Mining (TSXV: HMX) bought the Martha mine and

mill from Coeur for US$2.7 million, and founder and CEO Tim Hunt expects to recommission the mill and put the mine back into production before year-end.

The company has also hired Leon Hardy as its chief operating officer.

Hardy, an engineer, is a former chief operating officer and senior vicepresident at Coeur, and spent five years in Argentina overseeing the initial start-up of the Martha mill through to full-scale operations from mid-2007 until 2012.

The Martha mine and mill complex is within trucking distance of Hunt Mining’s La Josefina and La Valenciana projects, 110 km north.

“Martha is a key asset in our portfolio that can support us going forward,” Hunt says in a telephone interview from Liberty Lake in Washington state. “Not only do we

“WE THINK MARTHA IS A KEY ASSET IN OUR PORTFOLIO THAT CAN SUPPORT US GOING FORWARD.” TIM HUNT FOUNDER AND CEO, HUNT MINING

have our existing properties where we have a phenomenal amount of production opportunity, but we are looking at developing resources that are still at Martha.” (The bottom of the underground mine workings sit at 300 metres below surface.)

Hunt says Coeur produced more than 25 million oz. silver and 25,000 oz. gold at Martha, and the complex comes with infrastructure investments worth over US$30 million, including a lab, offices, warehouses and a 60-person camp. Hunt Mining also has full access to explore the 350 sq. km property.

Hughes notes that Santa Cruz is “probably the best jurisdiction in the world, in terms of mineral access,” and that the state — roughly the size of Nevada — is underpopulated, with 90% of people living in just two cities.

“There are more operating mines and discoveries in Santa Cruz than all of the other provinces combined in Argentina,” Hughes says, adding that the discovery potential “is probably the best in the world,

because the geology is absolutely straightforward.”

He says that “it’s not like Nevada where you get crust faulting and strange stratigraphy, and all that weird stuff. There are just straightforward, epithermal vein systems, and epithermal bulk-mineable projects are our expertise.”

Other mines and projects in the district include Pan American Silver’s (TSX: PAA; NASDAQ: PAAS) Manantial Espejo silver-gold mine (30 km from Martha); AngloGold Ashanti’s (NYSE: AU) Cerro Vanguardia gold mine (105 km from Martha); Goldcorp’s (TSX: G; NYSE: GG) Cerro Negro gold mine (170 km from Martha); McEwen Mining (TSX: MUX; NYSE: MUX) and Hochschild Mining’s San Jose goldsilver mine (220 km from Martha); and Yamana Gold’s Cerro Moro gold-silver development project (260 km from Martha).

Hunt notes that he and Hughes looked at more than 50 properties throughout Alaska and North and

South America before concentrating on Santa Cruz in 2006. The company then hired local geologist Danilo Silva as its general manager for Argentina. Silva had previously worked as a senior geologist at Yamana Resources and Buenaventura, among other companies, and like Hughes, had several discoveries under his belt. (Silva and Hughes found the Don Nicolas and Martinetas deposits. Don Nicolas is 100 km west of Martha, and Martinetas is 70 km west.)

In 2007, Hunt Mining acquired its advanced-stage La Josefina silvergold project, adding its La Valenciana project in late 2012. Since setting up in the province a decade ago, the company has drilled 64,000 metres, carried out 416 line km of induced polarization geophysical surveys and taken more than 20,000 surface soil, sediment, channel, chip and trench samples at its properties.

The company is one of the largest landholders in the region, it says, with mineral rights to more than 31 properties over 2,867 sq. km. Hunt says that the company — which listed on the TSX Venture Exchange in 2009 — plans to spend $15 million on exploration across its property portfolio over the next five years.

“We like the wide open country of Santa Cruz and the fact that it hasn’t had much modern exploration, with the exception of the last 25 years,” Hunt says. “There were just a couple of mines when we got there in 2006, and now you’ve got a number of them … and we’re going to be the next producer.” TNM

Guyana Goldfields off to strong start at Aurora NEW GOLD PRODUCTION

BY MATTHEW KEEVIL

G

mkeevil@northernminer.com VANCOUVER

uyana Goldfields (TSX: GUY; US-OTC: GUYFF) has wrapped up its first commercial quarter at the Aurora openpit gold mine in Guyana, and the results hint at an operation that’s about to hit its stride. The company cranked out over 41,000 oz. gold in the quarter at all-in sustaining costs of US$778 per oz. gold.

This represents a margin per ounce of US$418, and free cash flow of US$18.3 million, or US12¢ per share. The mine exceeded its nameplate throughput of 5,000 tonnes per day during the quarter, with a daily production record of 6,586 tonnes per day.

“The operation is meeting — and in some cases exceeding — our expectations,” president and CEO Scott Caldwell said on a conference call. “Our all-in sustaining costs over the quarter, though a very good number, were slightly higher than expected. This was due to a higher-than-expected number of employees, or as I call it, the ‘construction hangover.’”

He added that “the mine itself performed well and exceeded production estimates, tonnes mined and milled, and ounces delivered and produced. Recoveries are steadily improving, and we’re confident we’ll achieve design levels.”

Production came from total mill throughput of 462,600 tonnes at a head grade of 3.07 grams gold and 89% recoveries, though the company reported recoveries had reached 93% near the end of the quarter. Guyana Goldfields reported run-of-mine stockpiles totalling 78,700 tonnes at 1.98- grams gold per tonne.

“WE EXPECT TO ENHANCE THE OVERALL PROFITABILITY OF WHAT I CONSIDER A WORLD-CLASS MINE.” SCOTT CALDWELL PRESIDENT AND CEO, GUYANA GOLDFIELDS

Aurora is on track to hit the firm's annual guidance of between 130,000 and 150,000 oz. gold, at all-in sustaining costs ranging from US$587 and US$637 per oz. gold.

Many of Guyana Goldfields’ calculations, including all-in sustaining costs and reserves, assume a conservative US$1,000 per oz. gold.

“We completed a study one year ago near spot gold prices, and it’s near a feasibility level,” Caldwell commented. “We just need to refine some of the sustaining capital variables. What it did was increase the open-pit mine life by four years. It also added a bit to our underground potential, and we’re going to work on that study this year to help with the detail on a mill expansion.”

The mine’s 17-year life is modelled on proven and probable reserves of 27.4 million tonnes grading 2.91 grams gold for nearly 3.1 million contained oz. gold.

The current project is being developed as a stand-alone open-pit mining operation, with only an eight-year life.

1 2 3 4 5 7 8 9 10 16_MAY23_Main .indd 9

| Mine in Guyana set to produce at least 130,000 oz. gold in 2016

Aurora is divided into four major gold zones: Rory’s Knoll, Aleck Hill, Walcott Hill and Mad Kiss.

Mineralization in Guyana’s Golden Mile area is controlled by a series of northwest- to southeast-trending shear zones, which orient subparallel to the dominant northwest structural trend throughout the property.

The company has geological potential at Aurora, but will only earmark US$3 million for exploration this year.

“It’s a modest exploration budget, but we intend to work on a target we call ‘Powis Hill,’ which is a couple kilometres from the mill site,” Caldwell said. “We’ve trenched the area … we’re looking to do a little reverse-circulation drilling and identify a supplemental feed of open-pit, saprolite ore.”

Scotiabank’s mining desk noted

on May 10 that the results represent a “strong first quarter of commercial production,” and that the balance sheet is “building,” while it pays down debt principal and outstanding accounts payable.”

Guyana Goldfields has traded in a 52-week range of $2.48 to $8.31, and closed at $8.11 per share at press time. The company has 154 million shares outstanding for a $1.3-billion market capitalization, and reported a US$41.7-million cash balance at the end of March.

“We expect to enhance the overall profitability of what I consider a world-class mine,” Caldwell said.

“I can’t overemphasize the success we’ve had to date, and it’s a direct result of our team. When you have a great mine with great grades, you can expect good results moving forward.” TNM

forecast in 2013 that its copper output would double in 2016, as companies brought online new projects.

Some advanced or new mines in the district include China-backed MMG’s US$7-billion Las Bambas project; Glencore’s (LSE: GLEN) US$1.5-billion Antapaccay mine and Hudbay Minerals’ (TSX: HBM; NYSE: HBM) US$1.8-billion Constancia mine.

Panoro's PEA proposes that a 40,000-tonne-per-day operation at Antilla could produce 81 million lb. copper and 1.9 million lb. molybdenum annually for 24 years. The mine would have a low strip ratio of 0.85-to-1 and direct cash costs of US$1.83 per lb. copper, net of by-product credits.

Start-up costs are pegged at US$603 million, with another US$324 million in sustaining costs and US$92 million in mine-closure costs. This brings Antilla’s bill to US$1 billion.

While the PEA results fit Shaheen’s expectations, he notes that “there are a number of areas where we think we can still improve the

project.” These areas include refining the metallurgy and tweaking the capital cost estimates for the infrastructure. (The PEA estimates US$85 million for infrastructure costs.)

On an after-tax basis, Antilla has a modest net present value (NPV) of US$225 million and 15.1% internal rate of return (IRR), using a 7.5% discount rate and US$3 per lb. copper price, and US$12 per lb. moly price. Payback would occur in 4.1 years.

Antilla’s PEA incorporates 291.8 million indicated tonnes grading 0.3% copper and 0.01% moly, or 0.4% copper equivalent, as well as 90.5 million inferred tonnes at 0.3% copper and 0.01% moly, or 0.3% copper equivalent.

The estimate — completed by Tetra Tech in 2015 — includes a revised pit shell and a lower 0.2% copper-equivalent cut-off grade, compared to 0.2% previously.

Panoro cautions the inferred resource is “too speculative geologically” to be considered economic.

While pleased with the PEA results, Shaheen says the company’s priority is advancing the

Panoro Minerals’ Antilla copper-molybdenum project, 140 km southwest of Cuzco in southern Peru. PANORO MINERALS

larger Cotabambas project. An updated September 2015 PEA envisaged building Cotabambas as an 80,000-tonne-per-day open-pit operation — with a 17-year mine life — for US$1.5 billion. Using

metal prices of US$3 per lb. copper, US$1,250 per oz. gold and US$18.50 per oz. silver, the project has a US$683.9 million after-tax NPV at a 7.5% discount rate, and a 16.7% after-tax IRR.

Purchases Martha Mine to Become Argentina’s Next Gold Producer www.huntmining.com

Hunt Mining Prepares for Production

SANTA CRUZ, ARGENTINA - Hunt Mining’s President & CEO, Tim Hunt announced plans to commence operations at the Martha Mine in Q4 2016.

“Recommissioning of the facilities at the Martha Mine are underway. We are excited to transition from exploration and development to becoming Argentina’s newest gold & silver producer! The acquisition of Martha and its mechanical infrastructure make it possible for our company to work with the mining authorities and local communities to build a bright future in Santa Cruz.”

1 2 3 4 5 7 8 9 10 16_MAY23_Main .indd 10

In the near-term, Panoro intends to focus on three tasks that could add “significant value” to Cotabambas, Shaheen says. This includes stepout drilling to grow the current oxide resource to add a heap-leach solvent-extraction and electrowinning component; additional metallurgical testing to boost recoveries; and exploration drilling at Maria Jose, the closest target to the current resource.

Panoro expects to start a prefeasibility study within two years, depending on the outcome of the tasks. Those tasks could add to the mine life, Shaheen says, adding that further exploration on Cotabambas’ eight other targets, if successful, could increase the project’s throughput.

Under the streaming agreement, Silver Wheaton will match the amount Panoro raises for exploration at Cotabambas for a maximum US$3.5 million in the next two years, Shaheen says, noting the major will pay another US$3.5 million over that time.

Silver Wheaton will pay the balance of the upfront cash payment of US$140 million during Cotabambas’ construction, and a production payment to receive 100% of the silver and 25% of the gold produced from the project.

Panoro’s long-term goal has always been to advance both of its key projects to feasibility stage, before finding a partner or an acquirer to develop them. “We have been working on that route for nine years now, and we’ve advanced quite a bit,” Shaheen says.

“The Antilla and Cotabambas projects together now really enhance the unique position that Panoro is in. We have two good copper projects in what I would argue is the pre-eminent copper district in the world, in a favourable regulatory environment.

“Right now we’re satisfied that we’ve de-risked these two projects and are looking forward to improving both the projects before we set off into feasibility studies.”

Commenting on the copper market, Shaheen estimates a surplus will remain in 2016 and 2017, before a structural shift pushes the market into a deficit and copper prices higher. “If you look at the world’s two largest copper producing nations — Chile and China — both of their copper production peaked and will start to decline. Two years out, there is a good fundamental reason to think that the copper price will be significantly stronger.”

Spot copper was recently trading at US$2.24 per lb., below the US$3 per lb. long-term price used in both PEAs. Panoro closed May 3 flat at 18¢ per share, after gaining 9% a day earlier on Antilla’s PEA. TNM

Eldorado to sell Jinfeng to China National Gold M&A IN CHINA

| Minority partner to buy 82% stake for US$300M

BY TRISH SAYWELL

E

tsaywell@northernminer.com

ldorado Gold (TSX: ELD; NYSE: EGO) is the largest foreign gold producer in China, with three of the company’s six producing mines operating in the country. But that reign is coming to an end with an agreement the gold miner announced in late April to sell its Jinfeng mine for US$300 million in cash, and more recent announcement of a sale of its remaining assets in China (see story, Page 1).

The Vancouver-based company is selling its 82% stake in the gold mine in China’s southern Guizhou province to its partner, a subsidiary of China National Gold Group. The state-owned company has been Eldorado’s minority partner at Jinfeng for the last 14 years.

Paul Wright, Eldorado’s president and CEO, declined to be interviewed about the sale or the company’s China strategy, but said via email that management thinks its mines in China have been under-appreciated.

“We believed that the market was not fairly valuing the Chinese assets within our portfolio,” he told The Northern Miner. “In August 2014 we began evaluating alternatives, which included the status quo, a Hong Kong listing, or a full divestment of the assets.”

Jinfeng has consistently delivered solid operating results since it went into production in 2007, and has been a “strong contributor” in the company’s global portfolio, Wright

said in a press release announcing the sale. (That portfolio includes two other operating mines in Turkey and development projects in Greece.)

The company also noted that China National Gold was “the logical buyer,” as Jinfeng transitions to the underground part of its mine life. (The open-pit operations were exhausted in April 2015).

This year, Eldorado estimates Jinfeng will produce 95,000 to 105,000 oz. gold from underground operations and a small amount of stockpile, at cash costs of between US$700 and US$750 per oz. gold.

Barrick posts Q1 loss

mond James said in a research note they view the transaction “positively,” as the sale price for the asset is 1.35 times their net asset value (NAV) estimate of $225 million.

They also point out that “the market is likely to welcome Jinfeng’s sale price as a potential read-through for the remaining Chinese assets,” which they value at a $450-million NAV prior to the subsequent announcement of their sale for US$600 million.

CIBC analysts Cosmos Chiu and Kevin Chiew earlier modelled a $527-million NAV for Eldorado’s remaining Chinese assets: Tanjianshan, White Mountain and Eastern Dragon.

Eldorado holds a 90% stake in the Tanjianshan mine, a 95% stake in the White Mountain mine and a 75% stake in the Eastern Dragon project. (China National Gold does not hold the minority stakes in any of these assets.)

Tanjianshan is an open-pit gold mine in northwestern China’s Qinghai province consisting of two deposits: Qinlongtan and Jinlonggou.

White Mountain is an underground mine in northeastern China’s Jilin province, and Eastern Dragon is a high-grade epithermal gold-silver deposit in northern China’s Heilongjiang province.

This year Tanjianshan could produce 70,000 to 80,000 oz. gold at cash costs of US$700 to US$750 per oz., while White Mountain could produce 75,000 to 85,000 oz. gold at cash costs of US$625 to US$675 per oz. gold.

Eastern Dragon would commission this year and begin as a small open-pit mine, before transitioning to underground. Production this year at Eastern Dragon is forecast to reach 10,000 to 20,000 oz. gold (45,000 tonnes at a grade of 14.75 grams gold per tonne), at cash costs of between US$125 to US$175 per oz. gold.

The transaction could close by September.

Outside China, Eldorado owns 100% of the Kisladag open-pit mine in Turkey’s Usak province, 100% of the Efemcukuru underground mine in Turkey’s Izmir province and 95% of the Stratoni underground silverlead-zinc mine in northern Greece’s Halkidiki Peninsula.

Kisladag, Turkey’s largest mine, is forecast to produce 225,000 to 240,000 oz. gold this year at cash costs in the US$550 to US$600 per oz. range. Efemcukuru could produce 90,000 to 100,000 oz. gold in 2016 at cash costs of between US$550 and US$600 per oz. gold. Stratoni

“WE BELIEVED THAT THE MARKET WAS NOT FAIRLY VALUING THE CHINESE ASSETS WITHIN OUR PORTFOLIO.” PAUL WRIGHT PRESIDENT AND CEO, ELDORADO GOLD

would process 220,000 tonnes of ore at grades of 6.2% lead, 10% zinc and 163 grams silver per tonne.

The company also has the Certej gold-silver project in western Romania; the Tocantinzinho gold project and the Vila Nova open-pit iron ore mine (on care and maintenance) in northern Brazil; and the Olympias gold-silver-lead-zinc project and Skouries gold-copper porphyry projects in Greece.

News of the Jinfeng sales agreement lifted Eldorado’s shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange 2% — or 9.5¢ to $4.90 — on 3 million shares traded.

On the Jinfeng announcement Cosmos Chiu and Kevin Chiew of CIBC raised their 12- to 18-month target price from $3.50 per share to $4, and noted that the Jinfeng sale would strengthen Eldorado’s balance sheet.

At the end of December 2015, Eldorado had US$667.7 million of liquidity, including US$292.6 million in cash and equivalents, and US$375 million in unused credit lines.

In its year-end results tabled on March 23, Wright noted the company’s balance sheet “remains one of the strongest in the industry, allowing us to internally fund our robust growth pipeline.”

Eldorado exceeded production and cost guidance for the third year in a row, with gold production of 723,532 oz. at an average cash operating cost of US$552 per oz., and all in-sustaining cost of US$842 per oz. gold.

In 2015, Eldorado posted a loss attributable to shareholders of US$1.5 billion, or US$2.15 per share, compared to a net profit attributable to shareholders of US$102.6 million, or 14¢ per share in 2014.

The company attributed the loss to US$1.5 billion in impairment losses, net of tax; a US$63.5-million deferred income tax charge, related to a change in income tax rates in Greece; and lower gross profits from gold mining operations. TNM

arrick Gold (TSX: ABX; NYSE: ABX) swung into the red in the first quarter on the back of declining production due to asset sales in the second half of 2015 and early 2016, combined with lower realized gold prices.

The world’s largest gold producer posted an US$83-million quarterly net loss, down from a US$57-million profit in the same period last year.

Removing one-time items, adjusted earnings were US$127 million, or US11¢ per share, up from US5¢ per share a year ago.

The firm generated US$181 million of free cash flow in the first quarter. While this is an improvement from the negative amount generated in the comparable period, it is down from the US$378 million made in the fourth quarter of 2015.

Haywood Securities analyst Kerry Smith writes that “Barrick continues to make strides, as it reported its fourth consecutive quarter of generating free cash flow.”

On a conference call, Barrick’s departing chief financial officer Shaun Usmar said the company achieved a free cash flow break even of just over US$1,000 per oz. in the first quarter, and is on track to lower that to US$1,000 per oz. for the year. (Catherine Raw replaced Usmar that day.)

The company also lowered its year-over-year cash costs 24%, and all-in sustaining costs 12%, despite lower production.

Quarterly production came in at 1.28 million oz. at all-in sustaining costs of US$706 per oz., down from 1.39 million oz. at all-in sustaining costs of US$927 per oz. the year earlier. Cash costs were US$553 per oz. in the first quarter.

Barrick says these savings came from lower sustaining capital spending and lower operating costs. It also benefitted from lower fuel prices and foreign exchange gains, after the devaluation of the Argentine peso.

Copper output was 111 million lb. at all-in sustaining costs of US$1.97 per lb.

Quarterly sales included 1.31 million oz. gold at an average realized price of US$1,181 per oz. and 103 million lb. copper at US$2.18 per lb.

Compared to the previous year, sales were lower and the average realized price slipped 3% for gold and 14.5% for copper. Revenue dropped 14% to US$1.9 billion.

Barrick has reiterated its 2016 production guidance of 5 million to 5.5 million oz. gold, but now expects all-in sustaining costs of US$760 to US$810 per oz., down US$15 on each end. It aims to bring all-in sustaining costs to below US$700 per oz. by 2019.

The company has also trimmed the top end of its annual capital guidance by US$100 million to US$1.6 billion.

Barrick went on a selling spree last year to help repay its debt, and lowered its total debt in the first quarter by US$842 million to US$9.1 billion. It remains on track to reach its 2016 debt reduction target of US$2 billion. It exited the quarter with US$2.3 billion in cash. TNM
