Mr. Matt Manson reports

STORNOWAY ANNOUNCES FY2017 THIRD QUARTER RESULTS

Stornoway Diamond Corp. has released its results for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2017.

Quarter ended September 30, 2017 Highlights

(All quoted figures in CAD$ unless otherwise noted)

Net loss of $3.1 million or $Nil per share on a basic and fully diluted basis.

-442,154 carats recovered during the quarter from the processing of 506,381 tonnes of ore compared to a plan of 422,475 carats from 540,000 tonnes (at 87 carats per hundred tonnes, "cpht", compared to a plan of 78 cpht).
Mining in the Renard 2-3 and Renard 65 open pits comprised 1,074,148 tonnes, or 101% of plan, with 523,257 tonnes of ore extracted. Underground mine development at the end of September comprised 1,206 meters, or 102% of plan.
Diamond sales of 405,643 carats were completed with gross proceeds1 of $48.1 million in the quarter. An additional 32,989 carats were sold during the third quarter for which revenue will be realized in the fourth quarter as proceeds from the sale were not received prior to September 30, 2017. Adjusted EBITDA2 was $15.0 million, or 30.0% of revenues.
Average diamond pricing achieved at sale of US$95 per carat ($119 per carat2- 3), compared to US$87 per carat in the second quarter and US$81 in the first quarter.
Cash operating costs per tonne processed2 of $57.97 per tonne ($66.39 per carat) and capital expenditures2 of $22.7 million in the quarter, both within plan.
During the quarter, a program of plant modification measures centred on a new ore-waste sorting circuit was approved by the Board of Directors, with an extraordinary capital cost of $22 million to be funded from existing financial resources. Construction on the new circuit commenced in September.
At quarter end, cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments stood at $52.6 million. Available liquidity2 to the Corporation, comprising cash and cash equivalents and available credit facilities, stood at $157.8 million.


1 Before stream and royalty

2 See "Non-IFRS Financial Measures" section. 3 Based on an average C$: US$ conversion rate of $1.25.

Matt Manson, president and CEO commented: "Strong production results in the third quarter were matched by continued good performance in cost management. Our average operating cost of $66.39 per carat compares favourably with an average sales price of $119 per carat, with a beat on carats produced and grade over our mine plan. This strong underlying operating result in our business is being achieved even as we continue our work to improve the quality of our diamond recoveries. To that end, construction of our new ore-waste sorting circuit is well in hand, with commissioning scheduled for the first quarter of 2018. Our pricing at sale is increasing quarter by quarter, although a correction at the end of the third quarter served to slow the rate of increase, and we foresee a flat outlook for the rest of the year. At quarter-end we reported another strong balance sheet of cash and available credit facilities, positioning us favourably to complete our capital programs in 2017 and the first half of 2018."

Globe sagt, Stornoway ringt mit Bruch

2017-10-25 08:26 ET - In den Nachrichten

The Globe and Mail berichtet in seiner Mittwochausgabe, dass Québecs erste Diamantenmine ein Gitterproblem hat: Ihre Edelsteine ​​brechen mehr, als sie sollten. Der Globe Nicolas Van Praet schreibt, dass seinerseits die Anteile seines Besitzers Stornoway Diamond trifft. Der aufstrebende Diamantenproduzent baute im Sommer 2016 die Renard-Mine in den Otish Mountains im Norden von Zentral-Quebec mit einem Finanzierungspaket von 946 Millionen US-Dollar. Das Projekt kam unter Budget und fünf Monate früher als geplant, aber Stornoway hat einen Haken gefunden. Die Renard-Diamanten brechen die Verarbeitung in einem höheren Maße als erwartet, was den Preis, den sie bei einer Auktion erzielen, verletzt. In der Diamantenindustrie ist größer besser. Und zu viele große Renard-Diamanten werden in ihren Brechern zerschlagen. Stornoway-Aktien haben in den vergangenen elf Börsensitzungen nicht zugelegt und legten am 12. Oktober nach einer Herabstufung von RBC Dominion Securities um fast 4 Prozent nach. Sie verloren Dienstag um 7 Prozent. Im 3. Quartal wurden 438.632 Karat Edelsteine ​​zu einem durchschnittlichen Preis von 94 US-Dollar pro Karat versteigert, was einem Gesamtertrag von 51,6 Mio. US-Dollar (kanadisch) entspricht. Stornoway hat einen Plan zur Überwindung des Bruchproblems.

https://www.stockwatch.com/News/Item.aspx?bid=Z-C:SWY-2514096&symbol=SWY&region=C
LONGUEUIL, Québec, Oct. 10, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stornoway Diamond Corporation (TSX:SWY) (the “Corporation” or “Stornoway”) is pleased to provide production and sales results at the Renard Diamond Mine for the quarter ended September 30, 2017. Highlights include:

442,154 carats produced from the processing of 506,381 tonnes of ore with an attributable grade of 87 carats per hundred tonnes (“cpht”), compared to a plan of 422,475 carats from 540,000 tonnes at 78 cpht (+5%, -6% and +12% respectively).

Average processing rate of 5,957 tonnes per day achieved during the quarter.

438,632 carats sold in two sales (2017 sales #6 and #7) for gross proceeds1 of C$51.6 million2, at an average price of US$94 per carat (C$118 per carat2).

Matt Manson, President & CEO commented: “The third quarter at the Renard diamond mine saw continued robust carat production with a 12% beat on recovered grade compared to our mine plan. On a project to date basis our recovered grades are reconciling well with the overall expected resource model, and reflecting a positive geological reconciliation in the Renard 2-Renard 3 open pit. During the quarter we saw growth in carats sold, gross sales revenue, and average pricing compared to the first half of the year, despite a rough market correction at the end of the quarter which served to slow the rate of increase. At the process plant, we are achieving steady name-plate capacity in processing, and have broken ground on our new ore/waste sorting circuit that we expect will positively impact the quality of our diamond production and achieved pricing at sale. Third quarter financial results, including operating costs and earnings, will be released after market on Thursday, November 2, 2017.”

Diamond Production

During the quarter, 506,380 tonnes of ore were processed compared to the plan of 540,000 tonnes (-6%). However, better than expected ore grades in the Renard 2-Renard 3 open pit led to higher diamond production than planned, with 442,154 carats produced at 87 cpht compared to 422,475 carats at 78 cpht (+5% and +12% respectively).

From the beginning of ore processing at the Renard Mine in July 2016 to September 30, 2017, 1.83 million tonnes of ore have been delivered to the process plant resulting in the production of 1.69 million carats of diamonds at 92 cpht. This compares favourably with the March 2016 mine plan of 1.68 million tonnes and 1.50 million carats at 89 cpht (+10%, +13% and +4% respectively).

The average processing rate of the plant during the third quarter was 5,957 tonnes per day, excluding a 7 day scheduled annual maintenance shutdown in July. The nameplate capacity of the plant is 6,000 tonnes per day at 78% utilization.

Diamond Sales and Market Commentary

Two tender sales were completed during the quarter. In total, 438,632 carats were sold for gross proceeds1 of C$51.6 million2, at an average price of US$94 per carat (C$118 per carat2). This compares to an average price of US$81 achieved in the first quarter and US$87 per carat in the second quarter (Table 1).

Stornoway Diamond earns $2.33-million in Q2 2017



2017-08-14 09:32 ET - News Release



Mr. Matt Manson reports

STORNOWAY ANNOUNCES FY2017 SECOND QUARTER RESULTS

Stornoway Diamond Corp. has released its results for the quarter ended June 30, 2017.

Quarter ended June 30, 2017, highlights:

Net income of $2.3-million or nil per share on a basic and fully diluted basis;
During the course of the quarter, the corporation achieved the milestone of one million carats of diamonds produced and attained nameplate processing capacity, on schedule;
417,362 carats recovered during the quarter from the processing of 512,005 tonnes of ore compared with a plan of 486,591 carats from 513,000 tonnes, due to the processing of lower-grade ore (at 82 carats per hundred tonnes compared with a plan of 95 carats per hundred tonnes);
Mining in the Renard 2-3 and Renard 65 open pits comprised 1,328,580 tonnes, or 129 per cent of plan, with 500,473 tonnes of ore extracted;
Underground mine development at the end of June comprised 2,746 metres, or 103 per cent of plan;
Diamond sales of 350,159 carats were completed with proceeds of $40.9-million. Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) of $15.1-million, or 35.6 per cent of sales;
Average diamond pricing achieved at sale of $87 (U.S.) per carat ($117 per carat), compared with $81 (U.S.) per carat in the first quarter. An additional 151,135 carats were sold subsequent to quarter-end for proceeds of $19.8-million, at an average price of $101 (U.S.) per carat ($128 per carat). Over all, pricing for Renard diamonds has increased by 19 per cent since sales began (expressed in real terms after accounting for size distribution and quality variations);
Cash operating costs per tonne processed of $54.12 per tonne ($66.39 per carat) and capital expenditures of $24-million in the quarter, both within plan;
Subsequent to the quarter-end, a program of plant modification measures aimed at reducing breakage and producing a higher-quality diamond product approved by the board of directors, with an expected capital cost of $22-million to be financed from existing financial resources;
At quarter-end, cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments stood at $60.4-million. Available liquidity to the corporation, comprising cash and cash equivalents and available credit facilities, stood at $168.1-million.


Matt Manson, president and chief executive officer, commented: "Our second quarter saw the attainment of full nameplate processing capacity at Renard, achieved by the end of June on schedule. Capital and operating costs continue within plan, and our business has again demonstrated a strong cash operating margin. Grade and carats produced for the quarter reflect the processing of a higher proportion of lower-grade ore from our stockpiles. However, we continue to see good overall productivity in mining and processing, and development of the underground mine, which will be the principal source of ore to the plant starting next year, is proceeding comfortably within schedule. We are particularly encouraged by the steady increase in pricing for Renard diamonds as the market familiarizes itself with our production. Pricing continues to be impacted by high levels of diamond breakage, and our work to date on this issue has shown that reducing the proportion of hard, country rock waste in the ore feed will have a meaningful impact on our recoveries. To this end, the Stornoway board has approved additional capital expenditures of $22-million, from existing funds, to add a waste sorting circuit to our process plant. This work, within an overall diamond value improvement action plan, will be conducted over the next three quarters, and is expected to contribute significantly to the volume, quality and value of our diamond production."

Stornoway's Renard produces 417,362 carats in Q2 2017



2017-07-12 10:09 ET - News Release



Mr. Matt Manson reports

STORNOWAY ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER PRODUCTION AND SALES RESULTS

Stornoway Diamond Corp. has provided production and sales results at the Renard diamond mine for the quarter ended June 30, 2017. Highlights include:

417,362 carats produced from the processing of 512,005 tonnes of ore with an attributable grade of 82 carats per hundred tonnes ("cpht").
Average processing rate of 6,149 tonnes per day achieved in June, exceeding plant's nameplate capacity and marking the on-schedule completion of the project's production ramp-up.
350,159 carats sold in two scheduled sales (2017 sales #4 and #5) for gross proceeds1 of C$40.9 million2, at an average price of US$87 per carat (C$117 per carat2).
An additional 151,135 carats sold in a sale completed subsequent to the quarter end (2017 sale #6), for gross proceeds of C$19.8 million3, at an average price of US$101 per carat (C$131 per carat3).
+19% increase in pricing for Renard diamonds since sales began, expressed in real terms after accounting for size distribution and quality variations.


Matt Manson, President & CEO commented: "At the end of the second quarter, we are pleased to report robust production figures and the on-schedule attainment of our process plant's nameplate capacity, marking the end of our processing ramp-up. With seven sales now completed, we are encouraged by strong growth in diamond pricing, reflecting the underlying market demand for the Renard product. This is despite the ongoing issue of diamond breakage which is impacting our production's quality and size profile. Going into the second half of the year, we will remain focussed on maximising the value attributes of our diamond production and continuing the growth in revenue from sales."

Diamond Production

During the quarter, 512,005 tonnes of ore were processed compared to the plan of 513,000 tonnes. Ore was sourced primarily from the Renard 2 kimberlite and stockpiles. Diamond production of 417,362 carats was below the plan of 486,591 carats (-13%) due, primarily, to the processing of lower grade ore. The average processing rate of the plant during the quarter was 5,626 tonnes per day, increasing to 6,149 tonnes per day in June. This meets the name plate capacity of the Renard process plant, which is 6,000 tonnes per day, and represents the completion of the project's production ramp-up.

Diamond Sales

Two tender sales were completed during the quarter. In total, 350,159 carats were sold for gross proceeds1 of C$40.9 million2, at an average price of US$87 per carat (C$117 per carat2). This compares to an average price of US$81 achieved in the first quarter. Immediately subsequent to the quarter end, Stornoway completed its 6th sale of the year, where 151,135 carats were sold for gross proceeds1 of C$19.8 million3, at an average price of US$101 per carat (C$131 per carat3). All sales prices are quoted on a run-of-mine basis.

The average pricing being achieved in the Renard diamond sales is strongly impacted by the ongoing issues of diamond breakage in the process plant, which reduces the proportion of larger diamonds available for sale, and volatility in the proportion of small diamonds in the sales mix. Small diamonds continue to achieve substantially lower market pricing than was being achieved prior to the Indian de-monetization events of late 2016. Nevertheless, the average run of mine pricing for Renard diamonds, after accounting for size distribution and quality variations, has increased in real terms by 19% since the first sale was completed in November 2016. While the rough market has strengthened modestly during this period, the size of the increase reflects the growing acceptance of the Renard diamond production by Stornoway's tender sale clientele. Stornoway's 6th sale of 2017 achieved the first result above US$100 per carat with a standard run-of-mine sales mix, despite continuing to exhibit a lower than expected proportion of larger diamonds. This is an encouraging result, and consistent with Stornoway's FY2017 pricing guidance of US$100 to US$132 per carat. Stornoway expects to conclude two additional sales in the third quarter (2017 sales #7 and #8) and two in the fourth quarter (2017 sales #9 and #10). Sales proceeds from sale #8 will be recognised in the fourth quarter.

Processing Update

Since ore processing at Renard began, the project has experienced high levels of diamond breakage. This is manifested most directly in the proportion of larger diamonds recovered, and in the average quality profile. Both factors negatively impact the achieved average diamond price at sale. During the first half of the year, steps have been undertaken to understand the cause of the breakage and to mitigate it to acceptable levels, with attention focussed on crusher operating settings, material balancing in the plant, screen changes, and modifications to the scrubber and pumps. While breakage continues at unsatisfactorily high levels, good insight has been achieved on the location and cause of the issue by Stornoway's processing staff and team of independent experts. Breakage occurs in all diamond processing plants, and can be successfully mitigated. Additional plant modification measures aimed at reducing the breakage at Renard and producing a higher quality diamond product are under development and will be released along with Stornoway's second quarter financial results in August.

During the processing ramp-up, Stornoway has made modifications to the method of handling and disposal of processed kimberlite ("PK"). To date, PK has been de-watered with centrifuges for trucking to a dry-stack disposal site. High moisture content in the PK has reduced its competence for stacking, and made disposal cumbersome. Going forward, fine PK will be pumped for disposal in a modified containment facility in a more traditional fashion, with water outflow collected and treated at the existing water treatment facility. In support of this change, a degrit module has been installed in the process plant and civil works modifications in the containment facility have been completed to dispose of the coarse PK. A modification to the mine's operating permit has been submitted and is under review. Stornoway expects to commence the modified form of PK disposal shortly. These changes have been completed within the previously announced sustaining capital budget for 2017, and will remove a significant bottle neck for future plant expansion at Renard.

Mr. Matt Manson reports

STORNOWAY ANNOUNCES FY2017 FIRST QUARTER RESULTS

Stornoway Diamond Corp. has released its results for the quarter ended March 31, 2017.

Quarter ended March 31, 2017 Highlights

Commercial production at the Renard Diamond Mine formally declared, effective January 1, 2017, marking the end of the project's initial capital expense period.

385,151 carats recovered during the quarter from the processing of 419,233 tonnes of ore, for an attributable grade of 92 cpht, compared to a plan of 369,307 carats at 91 cpht. Diamond sales of 459,126 carats were completed for proceeds of $48.5 million. Adjusted EBITDA1 of $15.0 million, or 35.9% of sales. Total diamond sales since the project began now stand at 498,039 carats at an average price of US$83 per carat ($110 per carat2), reflecting higher than expected efficiencies in the recovery of small diamonds and higher than expected diamond breakage experienced during processing ramp-up. Cash operating costs per tonne processed1 of $57.86 per tonne ($62.99 per carat) and capital expenditures1 of $17.1 million, both well within plan. Mining in the Renard 2-3 and Renard 65 open pits comprised 1,245,021 tonnes, or 112% of plan, with 625,576 tonnes of ore extracted. Underground mine development comprised 1,459 meters, or 113% of plan. Reported a net loss of $3.0 million or $Nil per share on a basic basis and a loss of $0.01 per share on a fully diluted basis. At quarter end, cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments stood at $72.1 million. Available liquidity1 to the Corporation, comprising cash and cash equivalents and available credit facilities, net of payables and receivables, stood at $153 million.

Kwantes refreshes Stornoway Diamond buy

2017-04-06 22:53 ET - In the News

James Kwantes, in the March 22, 2017, edition of Resource Opportunities, refreshes his buy of Stornoway Diamond Corp., recently 94 cents. Mr. Kwantes said buy on May 29, 2016, at 98 cents, and on Dec. 11, 2016, at $1. Assuming a $1,000 investment for each of the two buys, the $2,000 position is now worth $1,898. Stornoway's stock recently jumped thanks to the Washington Group's $1.1-billion (U.S.) hostile takeover offer for another diamond company, Dominion Diamond. Mr. Kwantes says this offer could "shake up Canada's diamond industry." It has certainly shaken up Stornoway's shares, which were as high as $1.30 on Oct. 24, 2016, but were just 87 cents the day before the offer for Dominion arrived. That drop reflects a disappointing diamond sale in November, production hiccups at Stornoway's Renard mine in Quebec and poor exploration results at its Adamantin property south of Renard. Mr. Kwantes is unfazed. He says Stornoway should start to generate free cash flow later this year, at which point the stock should be "rerated." As well, the Washington Group's offer for Dominion has rekindled interest in Canada's diamond sector, which in turn could bring more attention to Stornoway.

Transatlantic Mining to process 56.1 t from U.S. Grant



2017-11-02 19:07 ET - News Release



Mr. Bernie Sostak reports

TRANSATLANTIC MINING CORPORATION US GRANT UPDATE

Transatlantic Mining Corp. has released the final results for the trial concentrate obtained from testwork on a bulk sample mined from the U.S. Grant mine. This was part of a program to evaluate the amenability of the processing facilities at the U.S. Grant mine. This testwork, in conjunction with the process plant commissioning, supports the case for additional mining (1). Updates to the trial mining, exploration and construction activities are presented herein.

Highlights:

The final tonnes and grade shipped for trial processing of 56.1 dry metric tonnes;
Trial mining on the fourth level with exploration drilling targeting the vein position below this level;
The construction of the new Sherman decline portal, which has been located, to access a new and unmined vein offset from the U.S. Grant vein with the recently purchased equipment.


Final project-to-date trial concentrate sales:

A total of 56.1 dry metric tonnes (dmt) shipped for processing: 109.2 grams per tonne gold (3.52 ounces per tonne);
3,632 grams per tonne silver (116.8 ounces per tonne);
Concentrate NSR of $5,877 (U.S.) per dry metric tonne, after shipping and processing costs;
The last 21.8 tonnes of concentrate, processed from fourth level vein material, were of a higher grade, with a value ranging from $6,500 to $8,000 NSR per tonne.



Update on trial mining on and below the historical U.S. Grant No. 3 level

The mining of a bulk sample from below the existing U.S. Grant third level has concluded. This exploration has confirmed the continuation of gold/silver-bearing sulphide mineralization below any previous mining at the property. The vein at this depth appears consistent with what has been mined from the third level to surface, and also indicates that the veins at the mine, and in the surrounding district, continue to a greater depth than previously tested. This is further supported by the mapping of sulphides in the floor of the fourth level. All bulk sample material has been processed to date. Further mining will occur in the future after development to the area drilled and reported in January, 2017, has been completed. It is with the intention of starting this development that the Sherman decline portal has now been established.

Highlights from the mining of the bulk sample include:

156 metres (522 feet) of ramp access development completed to access the bulk sample target;
Development of fourth level with 106 metres (355 feet) on vein;
A total of 6,260 tonnes (6,900 short tons) of mineralized material developed;
The total mineralized material mined and hauled for mill commissioning feed was 3,356 metric tonnes (3,700 short tons);
Mill head grade samples from this feed assayed 2.4 grams per tonne gold (0.07 ounce per short ton) and 126.8 grams per tonne silver (3.7 ounces per short ton). An estimated 2,903 metric tonnes (3,200 short tons) remain unmined from the area developed and bulk sampled on the fourth level.


Update on exploration drilling

A short underground drill program has been completed from the fourth level of the U.S. Grant mine. To date, 270 metres (890 feet) have been drilled along the strike and downdip of the U.S. Grant vein from the fourth level to confirm the continuation of gold- and silver-bearing sulphides. The core from this drilling is currently being prepared for analysis. Visual inspection of the core indicates continued vein and sulphide continuing below the lowest point in the mine.

Sample results from the phase 1 surface drill program (conducted in fourth quarter 2016) (2) have been received from American Analytical Services. Results confirm continued quality of vein, mineralization and grade for the newly discovered strike extension of the U.S. Grant vein known as the Sherman offset. The drilling to date has delineated a 300-foot strike extension of the vein over an on-dip vertical extent of 780 feet (the Sherman offset), from its surface outcrop to the third-level elevation. Surface mapping of the area to the east of this drilling shows a potential for an additional 400 feet of strike extension. Further drilling has been planned for this area.

Sherman portal development

Development of a new underground mining access, the Sherman decline, has commenced. This is being undertaken with company's own heavy equipment and contract labour. The Sherman decline will be utilized to access the newly drilled and as yet unmined Sherman vein, an offset and extension of the U.S. Grant vein. The decline will be driven rapidly with modern trackless gear to enable subsequent development of the Sherman vein to obtain a bulk sample. The portal development is complete, 165 metres (540 feet) of a 3.6-metre-by-3.6-metre (12 feet by 12 feet) ramp is planned to access the first sublevel of the vein mineralization. After the secondary escapeway and initial vein exploration are completed, the mining of this mineralized zone will continue to the extent of the current drilling.

Kearsarge due diligence

The Kearsarge gold project exclusive due diligence period is now secured to the end of December, 2017, with historical drill hole data information now being collated and compiled. Further results will be updated during the quarter.

Chief executive officer Bernie Sostak commented: "The drilling to date at U.S. Grant supports the geologic model with continued intersections of the mineralization. The recent exploration and the trial mining/milling campaigns have indicated gold and silver to be available for future extraction with modern mining equipment now being sourced for productivity gains. The recently purchased and strategic U.S. Grant mine and mill complex, along with a second project in the Kearsarge where due diligence continues, sets us as a strong district position."

WPC signs new agreement for Mandalay's Lupin Mines



2017-11-02 12:42 ET - News Release

Also News Release (C-MND) Mandalay Resources Corp (2)


Mr. Stephen Wilkinson of WPC Resources reports

WPC RESOURCES ANNOUNCES NEW LUPIN MINE AGREEMENT

WPC Resources Inc. has entered into a letter agreement (LOI) with Mandalay Resources Corp. under which the company may acquire Mandalay's subsidiary, Lupin Mines Inc., which owns the historic Lupin gold mine. The LOI replaces the purchase agreement with Mandalay dated Oct. 31, 2016, and amendment to purchase agreement dated Feb. 28, 2017, to acquire Lupin. (For additional information regarding the purchase agreement and Lupin Mines, please see the WPC's news releases dated Nov. 1, 2016, and March 3, 2017, and the company's website.)

The letter agreement calls for WPC and Mandalay to enter into a Lupin option agreement which will provide for WPC to acquire a 100-per-cent ownership in Lupin, on or before Dec. 31, 2018. WPC must satisfy the following requirements:

Make a non-refundable payment of $400,000 to Mandalay for the use of the Lupin camp within 10 business days of execution of the definitive Lupin option agreement;
Incur a minimum of $1-million in direct exploration expenditures on the property;
Make a non-refundable payment of $2.6-million to Mandalay prior to close;
Grant to Mandalay a conditional aggregate cash payment equal to the equivalent of 10,000 ounces of refined gold, payable in 12 quarterly instalments equal to the cash equivalent of 833-1/3rd ounces of refined gold per quarter, based on the average gold price for each such quarter, beginning with the second quarter immediately following the full quarter after the commencement of commercial production on the property;
Grant to Mandalay, beginning in the quarter after the completion of payment of the aforementioned 12 quarterly instalments, a 1-per-cent net smelter return (NSR) royalty on gold production from the property;
Post any required Lupin reclamation security in excess of the $25.5-million pre-existing reclamation security, assume responsibility for all reclamation obligations associated with the property and make any reclamation refund payment to Mandalay for reclamation work done by Mandalay prior to the transfer of Lupin to the company.


WPC's president and chief executive officer, Stephen Wilkinson, commented, "Based on our due diligence, we believe the project offers an exciting mix of known mineralization and near-surface exploration targets with a potential opportunity to leverage existing infrastructure to re-establish the Lupin mine."

About the Lupin gold mine

The property is situated approximately 400 kilometres north of Yellowknife on the western side of Contwoyto Lake within the Kitikmeot region of Nunavut. The property consists of five contiguous mining leases covering 6,758 hectares and is subject to a 1.0-per-cent net smelter return royalty payable to Kinross Gold Corp. The on-site infrastructure includes a 2,300-ton-per-day gold mill, shops, warehouse, fuel farm, tailings facilities, residences, shaft and hoist, power generation, 1.6-kilometre all-season air strip, and permits, including a Type A water licence.

In 2011, Elgin Mining Inc. re-evaluated the Lupin database to prepare an updated Lupin resource estimate. Using five grams gold per tonne (g/t) over a minimum horizontal width of 2.5 metres as a lower cut-off, an inferred resource was estimated to contain 1.11 million tonnes grading 11.32 g/t, containing 403,000 ounces of gold mainly within the west zone -- south of shaft.

Note that WPC considers this to be an historic resource as estimated at Dec. 31, 2011, in the technical report on the property entitled, "[National Instrument] 43-101 Technical Report on the Lupin Mine Property, Kitikmeot Region, Nunavut, for Elgin Mining Inc.," by G.A. Harron, PGeo. The technical report is available for viewing under Elgin's corporate profile on SEDAR. A qualified person on the behalf of WPC has not done sufficient work to classify this historic estimate as a current mineral resource, and WPC does not treat it as a current mineral resource.

About WPC Resources Inc.

WPC is a Vancouver-based gold exploration company focused on mineral exploration and development. In 2014, the company entered into an agreement to acquire Inukshuk Exploration Inc., the owner of a 100-per-cent interest in the 8,015-hectare Hood River property located contiguous to the Ulu gold property. Recently, the company signed a letter of intent to acquire a 100-per-cent interest in the advanced Ulu gold property from Mandalay Resources. On July 13, 2015, under a previous agreement with Mandalay, WPC filed an amended technical report on SEDAR, titled "Technical Report on the Ulu Gold Property, Nunavut, Canada," dated July 10, 2015.

Stornoway loses $3.07-million in Q3



2017-11-02 17:21 ET - News Release



Mr. Matt Manson reports

STORNOWAY ANNOUNCES FY2017 THIRD QUARTER RESULTS

Stornoway Diamond Corp. has released its results for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2017.

Quarter ended September 30, 2017 Highlights

(All quoted figures in CAD$ unless otherwise noted)

Net loss of $3.1 million or $Nil per share on a basic and fully diluted basis.

-442,154 carats recovered during the quarter from the processing of 506,381 tonnes of ore compared to a plan of 422,475 carats from 540,000 tonnes (at 87 carats per hundred tonnes, "cpht", compared to a plan of 78 cpht).
Mining in the Renard 2-3 and Renard 65 open pits comprised 1,074,148 tonnes, or 101% of plan, with 523,257 tonnes of ore extracted. Underground mine development at the end of September comprised 1,206 meters, or 102% of plan.
Diamond sales of 405,643 carats were completed with gross proceeds1 of $48.1 million in the quarter. An additional 32,989 carats were sold during the third quarter for which revenue will be realized in the fourth quarter as proceeds from the sale were not received prior to September 30, 2017. Adjusted EBITDA2 was $15.0 million, or 30.0% of revenues.
Average diamond pricing achieved at sale of US$95 per carat ($119 per carat2- 3), compared to US$87 per carat in the second quarter and US$81 in the first quarter.
Cash operating costs per tonne processed2 of $57.97 per tonne ($66.39 per carat) and capital expenditures2 of $22.7 million in the quarter, both within plan.
During the quarter, a program of plant modification measures centred on a new ore-waste sorting circuit was approved by the Board of Directors, with an extraordinary capital cost of $22 million to be funded from existing financial resources. Construction on the new circuit commenced in September.
At quarter end, cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments stood at $52.6 million. Available liquidity2 to the Corporation, comprising cash and cash equivalents and available credit facilities, stood at $157.8 million.


1 Before stream and royalty

2 See "Non-IFRS Financial Measures" section. 3 Based on an average C$: US$ conversion rate of $1.25.

Matt Manson, president and CEO commented: "Strong production results in the third quarter were matched by continued good performance in cost management. Our average operating cost of $66.39 per carat compares favourably with an average sales price of $119 per carat, with a beat on carats produced and grade over our mine plan. This strong underlying operating result in our business is being achieved even as we continue our work to improve the quality of our diamond recoveries. To that end, construction of our new ore-waste sorting circuit is well in hand, with commissioning scheduled for the first quarter of 2018. Our pricing at sale is increasing quarter by quarter, although a correction at the end of the third quarter served to slow the rate of increase, and we foresee a flat outlook for the rest of the year. At quarter-end we reported another strong balance sheet of cash and available credit facilities, positioning us favourably to complete our capital programs in 2017 and the first half of 2018."

Globe sagt, Stornoway ringt mit Bruch

2017-10-25 08:26 ET - In den Nachrichten

The Globe and Mail berichtet in seiner Mittwochausgabe, dass Québecs erste Diamantenmine ein Gitterproblem hat: Ihre Edelsteine ​​brechen mehr, als sie sollten. Der Globe Nicolas Van Praet schreibt, dass seinerseits die Anteile seines Besitzers Stornoway Diamond trifft. Der aufstrebende Diamantenproduzent baute im Sommer 2016 die Renard-Mine in den Otish Mountains im Norden von Zentral-Quebec mit einem Finanzierungspaket von 946 Millionen US-Dollar. Das Projekt kam unter Budget und fünf Monate früher als geplant, aber Stornoway hat einen Haken gefunden. Die Renard-Diamanten brechen die Verarbeitung in einem höheren Maße als erwartet, was den Preis, den sie bei einer Auktion erzielen, verletzt. In der Diamantenindustrie ist größer besser. Und zu viele große Renard-Diamanten werden in ihren Brechern zerschlagen. Stornoway-Aktien haben in den vergangenen elf Börsensitzungen nicht zugelegt und legten am 12. Oktober nach einer Herabstufung von RBC Dominion Securities um fast 4 Prozent nach. Sie verloren Dienstag um 7 Prozent. Im 3. Quartal wurden 438.632 Karat Edelsteine ​​zu einem durchschnittlichen Preis von 94 US-Dollar pro Karat versteigert, was einem Gesamtertrag von 51,6 Mio. US-Dollar (kanadisch) entspricht. Stornoway hat einen Plan zur Überwindung des Bruchproblems.

https://www.stockwatch.com/News/Item.aspx?bid=Z-C:SWY-2514096&symbol=SWY&region=C
LONGUEUIL, Québec, Oct. 10, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stornoway Diamond Corporation (TSX:SWY) (the “Corporation” or “Stornoway”) is pleased to provide production and sales results at the Renard Diamond Mine for the quarter ended September 30, 2017. Highlights include:

442,154 carats produced from the processing of 506,381 tonnes of ore with an attributable grade of 87 carats per hundred tonnes (“cpht”), compared to a plan of 422,475 carats from 540,000 tonnes at 78 cpht (+5%, -6% and +12% respectively).

Average processing rate of 5,957 tonnes per day achieved during the quarter.

438,632 carats sold in two sales (2017 sales #6 and #7) for gross proceeds1 of C$51.6 million2, at an average price of US$94 per carat (C$118 per carat2).

Matt Manson, President & CEO commented: “The third quarter at the Renard diamond mine saw continued robust carat production with a 12% beat on recovered grade compared to our mine plan. On a project to date basis our recovered grades are reconciling well with the overall expected resource model, and reflecting a positive geological reconciliation in the Renard 2-Renard 3 open pit. During the quarter we saw growth in carats sold, gross sales revenue, and average pricing compared to the first half of the year, despite a rough market correction at the end of the quarter which served to slow the rate of increase. At the process plant, we are achieving steady name-plate capacity in processing, and have broken ground on our new ore/waste sorting circuit that we expect will positively impact the quality of our diamond production and achieved pricing at sale. Third quarter financial results, including operating costs and earnings, will be released after market on Thursday, November 2, 2017.”

Diamond Production

During the quarter, 506,380 tonnes of ore were processed compared to the plan of 540,000 tonnes (-6%). However, better than expected ore grades in the Renard 2-Renard 3 open pit led to higher diamond production than planned, with 442,154 carats produced at 87 cpht compared to 422,475 carats at 78 cpht (+5% and +12% respectively).

From the beginning of ore processing at the Renard Mine in July 2016 to September 30, 2017, 1.83 million tonnes of ore have been delivered to the process plant resulting in the production of 1.69 million carats of diamonds at 92 cpht. This compares favourably with the March 2016 mine plan of 1.68 million tonnes and 1.50 million carats at 89 cpht (+10%, +13% and +4% respectively).

The average processing rate of the plant during the third quarter was 5,957 tonnes per day, excluding a 7 day scheduled annual maintenance shutdown in July. The nameplate capacity of the plant is 6,000 tonnes per day at 78% utilization.

Diamond Sales and Market Commentary

Two tender sales were completed during the quarter. In total, 438,632 carats were sold for gross proceeds1 of C$51.6 million2, at an average price of US$94 per carat (C$118 per carat2). This compares to an average price of US$81 achieved in the first quarter and US$87 per carat in the second quarter (Table 1).

Mr. Matt Manson reports

STORNOWAY ANNOUNCES FY2017 SECOND QUARTER RESULTS

Stornoway Diamond Corp. has released its results for the quarter ended June 30, 2017.

Quarter ended June 30, 2017, highlights:

Net income of $2.3-million or nil per share on a basic and fully diluted basis;
During the course of the quarter, the corporation achieved the milestone of one million carats of diamonds produced and attained nameplate processing capacity, on schedule;
417,362 carats recovered during the quarter from the processing of 512,005 tonnes of ore compared with a plan of 486,591 carats from 513,000 tonnes, due to the processing of lower-grade ore (at 82 carats per hundred tonnes compared with a plan of 95 carats per hundred tonnes);
Mining in the Renard 2-3 and Renard 65 open pits comprised 1,328,580 tonnes, or 129 per cent of plan, with 500,473 tonnes of ore extracted;
Underground mine development at the end of June comprised 2,746 metres, or 103 per cent of plan;
Diamond sales of 350,159 carats were completed with proceeds of $40.9-million. Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) of $15.1-million, or 35.6 per cent of sales;
Average diamond pricing achieved at sale of $87 (U.S.) per carat ($117 per carat), compared with $81 (U.S.) per carat in the first quarter. An additional 151,135 carats were sold subsequent to quarter-end for proceeds of $19.8-million, at an average price of $101 (U.S.) per carat ($128 per carat). Over all, pricing for Renard diamonds has increased by 19 per cent since sales began (expressed in real terms after accounting for size distribution and quality variations);
Cash operating costs per tonne processed of $54.12 per tonne ($66.39 per carat) and capital expenditures of $24-million in the quarter, both within plan;
Subsequent to the quarter-end, a program of plant modification measures aimed at reducing breakage and producing a higher-quality diamond product approved by the board of directors, with an expected capital cost of $22-million to be financed from existing financial resources;
At quarter-end, cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments stood at $60.4-million. Available liquidity to the corporation, comprising cash and cash equivalents and available credit facilities, stood at $168.1-million.


Matt Manson, president and chief executive officer, commented: "Our second quarter saw the attainment of full nameplate processing capacity at Renard, achieved by the end of June on schedule. Capital and operating costs continue within plan, and our business has again demonstrated a strong cash operating margin. Grade and carats produced for the quarter reflect the processing of a higher proportion of lower-grade ore from our stockpiles. However, we continue to see good overall productivity in mining and processing, and development of the underground mine, which will be the principal source of ore to the plant starting next year, is proceeding comfortably within schedule. We are particularly encouraged by the steady increase in pricing for Renard diamonds as the market familiarizes itself with our production. Pricing continues to be impacted by high levels of diamond breakage, and our work to date on this issue has shown that reducing the proportion of hard, country rock waste in the ore feed will have a meaningful impact on our recoveries. To this end, the Stornoway board has approved additional capital expenditures of $22-million, from existing funds, to add a waste sorting circuit to our process plant. This work, within an overall diamond value improvement action plan, will be conducted over the next three quarters, and is expected to contribute significantly to the volume, quality and value of our diamond production."

Stornoway's Renard produces 417,362 carats in Q2 2017



2017-07-12 10:09 ET - News Release



Mr. Matt Manson reports

STORNOWAY ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER PRODUCTION AND SALES RESULTS

Stornoway Diamond Corp. has provided production and sales results at the Renard diamond mine for the quarter ended June 30, 2017. Highlights include:

417,362 carats produced from the processing of 512,005 tonnes of ore with an attributable grade of 82 carats per hundred tonnes ("cpht").
Average processing rate of 6,149 tonnes per day achieved in June, exceeding plant's nameplate capacity and marking the on-schedule completion of the project's production ramp-up.
350,159 carats sold in two scheduled sales (2017 sales #4 and #5) for gross proceeds1 of C$40.9 million2, at an average price of US$87 per carat (C$117 per carat2).
An additional 151,135 carats sold in a sale completed subsequent to the quarter end (2017 sale #6), for gross proceeds of C$19.8 million3, at an average price of US$101 per carat (C$131 per carat3).
+19% increase in pricing for Renard diamonds since sales began, expressed in real terms after accounting for size distribution and quality variations.


Matt Manson, President & CEO commented: "At the end of the second quarter, we are pleased to report robust production figures and the on-schedule attainment of our process plant's nameplate capacity, marking the end of our processing ramp-up. With seven sales now completed, we are encouraged by strong growth in diamond pricing, reflecting the underlying market demand for the Renard product. This is despite the ongoing issue of diamond breakage which is impacting our production's quality and size profile. Going into the second half of the year, we will remain focussed on maximising the value attributes of our diamond production and continuing the growth in revenue from sales."

Diamond Production

During the quarter, 512,005 tonnes of ore were processed compared to the plan of 513,000 tonnes. Ore was sourced primarily from the Renard 2 kimberlite and stockpiles. Diamond production of 417,362 carats was below the plan of 486,591 carats (-13%) due, primarily, to the processing of lower grade ore. The average processing rate of the plant during the quarter was 5,626 tonnes per day, increasing to 6,149 tonnes per day in June. This meets the name plate capacity of the Renard process plant, which is 6,000 tonnes per day, and represents the completion of the project's production ramp-up.

Diamond Sales

Two tender sales were completed during the quarter. In total, 350,159 carats were sold for gross proceeds1 of C$40.9 million2, at an average price of US$87 per carat (C$117 per carat2). This compares to an average price of US$81 achieved in the first quarter. Immediately subsequent to the quarter end, Stornoway completed its 6th sale of the year, where 151,135 carats were sold for gross proceeds1 of C$19.8 million3, at an average price of US$101 per carat (C$131 per carat3). All sales prices are quoted on a run-of-mine basis.

The average pricing being achieved in the Renard diamond sales is strongly impacted by the ongoing issues of diamond breakage in the process plant, which reduces the proportion of larger diamonds available for sale, and volatility in the proportion of small diamonds in the sales mix. Small diamonds continue to achieve substantially lower market pricing than was being achieved prior to the Indian de-monetization events of late 2016. Nevertheless, the average run of mine pricing for Renard diamonds, after accounting for size distribution and quality variations, has increased in real terms by 19% since the first sale was completed in November 2016. While the rough market has strengthened modestly during this period, the size of the increase reflects the growing acceptance of the Renard diamond production by Stornoway's tender sale clientele. Stornoway's 6th sale of 2017 achieved the first result above US$100 per carat with a standard run-of-mine sales mix, despite continuing to exhibit a lower than expected proportion of larger diamonds. This is an encouraging result, and consistent with Stornoway's FY2017 pricing guidance of US$100 to US$132 per carat. Stornoway expects to conclude two additional sales in the third quarter (2017 sales #7 and #8) and two in the fourth quarter (2017 sales #9 and #10). Sales proceeds from sale #8 will be recognised in the fourth quarter.

Processing Update

Since ore processing at Renard began, the project has experienced high levels of diamond breakage. This is manifested most directly in the proportion of larger diamonds recovered, and in the average quality profile. Both factors negatively impact the achieved average diamond price at sale. During the first half of the year, steps have been undertaken to understand the cause of the breakage and to mitigate it to acceptable levels, with attention focussed on crusher operating settings, material balancing in the plant, screen changes, and modifications to the scrubber and pumps. While breakage continues at unsatisfactorily high levels, good insight has been achieved on the location and cause of the issue by Stornoway's processing staff and team of independent experts. Breakage occurs in all diamond processing plants, and can be successfully mitigated. Additional plant modification measures aimed at reducing the breakage at Renard and producing a higher quality diamond product are under development and will be released along with Stornoway's second quarter financial results in August.

During the processing ramp-up, Stornoway has made modifications to the method of handling and disposal of processed kimberlite ("PK"). To date, PK has been de-watered with centrifuges for trucking to a dry-stack disposal site. High moisture content in the PK has reduced its competence for stacking, and made disposal cumbersome. Going forward, fine PK will be pumped for disposal in a modified containment facility in a more traditional fashion, with water outflow collected and treated at the existing water treatment facility. In support of this change, a degrit module has been installed in the process plant and civil works modifications in the containment facility have been completed to dispose of the coarse PK. A modification to the mine's operating permit has been submitted and is under review. Stornoway expects to commence the modified form of PK disposal shortly. These changes have been completed within the previously announced sustaining capital budget for 2017, and will remove a significant bottle neck for future plant expansion at Renard.

Mr. Matt Manson reports

STORNOWAY ANNOUNCES FY2017 FIRST QUARTER RESULTS

Stornoway Diamond Corp. has released its results for the quarter ended March 31, 2017.

Quarter ended March 31, 2017 Highlights

Commercial production at the Renard Diamond Mine formally declared, effective January 1, 2017, marking the end of the project's initial capital expense period.

385,151 carats recovered during the quarter from the processing of 419,233 tonnes of ore, for an attributable grade of 92 cpht, compared to a plan of 369,307 carats at 91 cpht. Diamond sales of 459,126 carats were completed for proceeds of $48.5 million. Adjusted EBITDA1 of $15.0 million, or 35.9% of sales. Total diamond sales since the project began now stand at 498,039 carats at an average price of US$83 per carat ($110 per carat2), reflecting higher than expected efficiencies in the recovery of small diamonds and higher than expected diamond breakage experienced during processing ramp-up. Cash operating costs per tonne processed1 of $57.86 per tonne ($62.99 per carat) and capital expenditures1 of $17.1 million, both well within plan. Mining in the Renard 2-3 and Renard 65 open pits comprised 1,245,021 tonnes, or 112% of plan, with 625,576 tonnes of ore extracted. Underground mine development comprised 1,459 meters, or 113% of plan. Reported a net loss of $3.0 million or $Nil per share on a basic basis and a loss of $0.01 per share on a fully diluted basis. At quarter end, cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments stood at $72.1 million. Available liquidity1 to the Corporation, comprising cash and cash equivalents and available credit facilities, net of payables and receivables, stood at $153 million.

Kwantes refreshes Stornoway Diamond buy

2017-04-06 22:53 ET - In the News

James Kwantes, in the March 22, 2017, edition of Resource Opportunities, refreshes his buy of Stornoway Diamond Corp., recently 94 cents. Mr. Kwantes said buy on May 29, 2016, at 98 cents, and on Dec. 11, 2016, at $1. Assuming a $1,000 investment for each of the two buys, the $2,000 position is now worth $1,898. Stornoway's stock recently jumped thanks to the Washington Group's $1.1-billion (U.S.) hostile takeover offer for another diamond company, Dominion Diamond. Mr. Kwantes says this offer could "shake up Canada's diamond industry." It has certainly shaken up Stornoway's shares, which were as high as $1.30 on Oct. 24, 2016, but were just 87 cents the day before the offer for Dominion arrived. That drop reflects a disappointing diamond sale in November, production hiccups at Stornoway's Renard mine in Quebec and poor exploration results at its Adamantin property south of Renard. Mr. Kwantes is unfazed. He says Stornoway should start to generate free cash flow later this year, at which point the stock should be "rerated." As well, the Washington Group's offer for Dominion has rekindled interest in Canada's diamond sector, which in turn could bring more attention to Stornoway.

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Nov. 2, 2017) - Lucara Diamond Corp. ("Lucara" or the "Company") (TSX:LUC)(BOTSWANA:LUC)(NASDAQ OMX Stockholm:LUC) is pleased to announce the results of a Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 ("NI43-101") for the development of an underground mine to commence production, after the completion of the current open pit mine, at its Karowe Mine ("Karowe Mine") in Botswana. All dollar amounts in this release are presented in US dollars unless otherwise stated.

Based on the positive PEA results, the Company has continued with the development of a pre-feasibility study ("PFS"), with an anticipated release in Q2, 2018.

The results of the PEA represent forward-looking information that are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause results to differ materially from those presented herein.

PEA Highlights (all figures apply to a stand-alone underground project and are additive to the current open pit operations):

After-tax undiscounted net cash flow of $820 million
After-tax NPV (5%) of $451 million and IRR of 38.9%

We have seen on-going improvement in the value of diamonds from the south lobe and the development of an underground mine has the potential to add significantly to the Life of Mine at Karowe."

Mr. Mehdi Azodi reports

IC POTASH COMPLETES SHARE REDEMPTION OF SUBSIDIARY

The redemption of IC Potash Corp.'s shares in Intercontinental Potash Corp. (USA) has been completed. The redemption is described in the management information circular for the special shareholder meeting of the company held on Oct. 12, 2017, that was filed with the Canadian Securities Administrators. The circular can be found at SEDAR.

The company received an initial payment of $1.4-million (U.S.) on redemption of ICPUSA shares. The company will receive an additional payment of $1.4-million (U.S.) on or before Jan. 8, 2018. Additional proceeds of disposition on the redemption of the shares in ICPUSA include rights to 75 per cent of water revenues that ICPUSA may earn by selling water to oil and gas companies which are fracking tight oil formations in the Permian basin. The Ochoa potash project, previously held by the company, is located in the Permian basin and ICPUSA retained the water rights. Water is in high demand by the oil and gas companies and can be sold at high prices by ICPUSA. The revenues that the company may earn will be up $12.2-million (U.S.).

The company is closely investigating various sectors and companies for potential joint venture or investment partnerships for deploying the funds.

Mehdi Azodi, president and chief executive officer of IC Potash, stated: "We are pleased to see the completion of the redemption transaction. We anticipate a substantial return on the water rights since the water is in high demand by the oil and gas companies located in Lea county and the other counties of southeast New Mexico and West Texas."

IC POTASH CORP. RECEIVES FORMAL OFFER TO SELL CAPITAN REEF COMPLEX AQUIFER WATER RIGHTS. REVENUE POTENTIAL OF USD 4M-6M ANNUALLY

IC Potash Corp. and Intercontinental Potash Corp. (USA) (ICPUSA) have received a formal offer from the company H2O of Lea County LLC to purchase ICPUSA's Capitan reef complex aquifer water.

H2O is committed to building the required infrastructure and providing the equipment costing approximately USD$2M at no cost to ICPUSA. The potential annual revenue for ICPUSA is USD$4M to USD$6M under the proposed offer by H2O.

Mehdi Azodi, President & CEO of IC Potash stated, "We are pleased to receive such a positive proposal for the highly valuable Capitan Reef Complex Aquifer water asset." H2O will be responsible for identifying, purchasing, and installing the required pumps, treatment facilities, pipelines, electrical power, storage facilities and related infrastructure. The ongoing operations and related monthly cost of electricity, labor, maintenance and process chemicals will be carried out by H2O.

Oil producers require 160,000 to 200,000 barrels of water per well to fracture multiple formations. There are multiple wells completed each month in South East New Mexico. H2O's expectation is that ICPUSA's water wells, located about 10 miles northeast of the Ochoa Project, drilled and available for pumping and distribution, will provide water for approximately seven fracturing jobs per month.

The proposal has been submitted to the board of ICPUSA and is valid until July 10, 2017.

THO - Tahoe Resources loses $8.38-million in Q3 2017

2017-11-06 18:46 ET - News Release
https://www.stockwatch.com/News/Item.aspx?bid=Z-C:THO-2526181&symbol=THO&region=C
Mr. Ron Clayton reports

TAHOE REPORTS STRONG MINE OPERATING EARNINGS FROM GOLD SEGMENTS FOR THIRD QUARTER 2017

Tahoe Resources Inc. has released solid financial and operating results for the third quarter and nine months ended Sept. 30, 2017. The Company's balance sheet remains strong, with cash and cash equivalents of $182.1 million at September 30, 2017 and very little debt.

Ron Clayton, President and CEO of Tahoe, commented: "Despite challenges in Guatemala during the quarter, we are very pleased with our team's performance, particularly at our gold operations which produced 109 thousand ounces at a total cash cost of $747 per ounce. The Company remains focused on executing our strategy to advance near-term development projects in Canada and Peru. Although we reported a loss for the quarter, the results were negatively impacted by $14 million in costs ($0.04 per share) related to the suspension and care and maintenance of Escobal and a $9 million non-recurring pre-tax expense ($0.03 per share) at La Arena as a result of completing negotiations to fulfill historical commitments made to the community. Except for these items, we would have reported positive earnings for the quarter on the strength of our gold operations alone. In Guatemala, we are gratified that the Supreme Court reinstated the Escobal license in September and are working diligently to resolve the Casillas road block and to obtain renewal of our export credential so that we can resume mining operations at Escobal. We believe the resolution of these two issues will follow the Constitutional Court decision on the appeals from the Supreme Court ruling."

Ms. Alexandra Barrows reports
TAHOE REVISES 2017 GUIDANCE FOR GOLD OPERATIONS AND PROVIDES UPDATED RESERVES AND RESOURCES AT TIMMINS WEST

Tahoe Resources Inc. has updated its 2017 guidance for its gold operations. Due to the continuing interruption of operations at Escobal, multiyear guidance remains under review for all operations. Despite this interruption, the company's balance sheet remains strong with cash and cash equivalents of more than $185-million at the end of August, 2017. The company's gold operations are performing well and represent an increasingly meaningful contribution to the overall financial performance of the company. Expansion projects at Shahuindo and Bell Creek are expected to increase production to more than 500,000 ounces annually beginning in 2019.

Revised 2017 gold guidance by mine

The company has increased its guidance for gold production to 400,000 to 450,000 ounces for 2017. The increase in the company's revised gold production guidance for the rest of 2017 is due in large part to the positive mine plan reconciliation experienced at La Arena year to date. The positive production reconciliation at La Arena has prompted the company to initiate a drilling program in the fourth quarter to better define the mineralization below the Calaorco pit with the goal of extending the mine life.

Total cash costs and all-in sustaining costs per ounce of gold produced have been revised downward. Total cash cost estimates have been decreased by $50 per ounce to an estimated $650 to $700 per ounce, reflecting the higher anticipated production levels and better-than-anticipated cost performance year to date. Likewise, all-in sustaining costs have decreased by $100 per ounce to a guidance range of $1,050 to $1,150 per ounce, driven by higher production and lower capital and exploration costs.

ABX - Barrick, zum Q3-Ergebnis, für mich auch weiterhin eine gute Chance, RSI aktuell im stark überverkauften Bereich, Chance auf drehen und Erholung:
https://bjoernjunker.wordpress.com/2017/10/26/barrick-gold-mit-schwachem-dritten-quartal/
"...Wie der Konzern bekannt gab, lag der Nettoverlust des Septemberquartals bei 11 Mio. Dollar oder 1 Cent pro Aktie. Im Vorjahresquartal hatte Barrick noch einen Nettogewinn von 175 Mio. Dollar oder 15 Cent pro Aktie erzielt. Das schwächere Ergebnis ist vor allem auf einen Rückgang der Goldproduktion sowie niedrigere Goldpreise zurückzuführen. Darüber hinaus belastet das Exportverbot der Regierung von Tansania, das Barricks Mehrheitsbeteiligung Acacia Mining (WKN A1CTRD) schwer traf.

Ohne diese Sonderposten meldete Barrick Gold für das dritte Quartal einen bereinigten Nettogewinn von 186 Mio. Dollar oder 16 Cent nach Aktie. 2016 hatte der Konzern auf dieser Basis noch 278 Mio. Dollar oder 24 Cent erwirtschaftet.

Bereits Anfang des Monats hatte der Konzern melden müssen, dass die Goldproduktion des dritten Quartals mit 1,24 Mio. Unzen unter dem Vergleichswert aus dem Vorjahreszeitraum (1,38 Mio. Unzen) lag. Gleichzeitig meldete Barrick einen Anstieg der so genannten „all-in sustaining costs“ (AISC) von 704 Dollar pro Unze im dritten Quartal 2016 auf jetzt 772 Dollar pro Unze.

Unternehmensvertreter wiesen darauf hin, dass man weiter die Verbindlichkeiten des Unternehmens senke und diese im laufenden Jahr bereits um fast 1,5 Mrd. Dollar reduziert habe. Damit sei ein Ziel von 1,45 Mrd. Dollar übertroffen worden. Barrick beschloss das Quartal mit einem Cash-Bestand von rund 2 Mrd. Dollar. Dem Unternehmen zufolge werden vor 2020 weniger als 100 Mio. Dollar an Schulden fällig und drei Viertel der noch ausstehenden Verbindlichkeiten werden erst nach 2032 fällig.

Der Konzern senkte zudem seine Goldproduktions- und Kostenprognosen. Barrick rechnet jetzt mit einer Gesamtjahresproduktion von 5,3 bis 5,5 Mio. Unzen Gold zu AISC 740 bis 770 Dollar pro Unze. Bislang war man von 5,3 bis 5,6 Mio. Unzen zu AISC von 720 bis 770 Dollar pro Unze ausgegangen.

Neben Gold produzierte Barrick im dritten Quartal 115 Mio. Pfund Kupfer zu AISC von 2,24 Dollar pro Pfund. Im gleichen Zeitraum des vergangenen Jahres waren es 100 Mio. Pfund zu AISC von 2,02 Dollar pro Pfund. Der Konzern rechnet noch mit einer Produktion von 420 bis 440 Mio. Pfund Kupfer für das Gesamtjahr 2017 mit AISC von 2,20 bis 2,40 Dollar pro Pfund.

Barrick Reports Progress on Proposed Framework for Acacia Mining plc Operations in Tanzania
http://www.marketwired.com/press-re...-plc-operations-tanzania-nyse-abx-2237711.htm
TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Oct. 19, 2017) -

All amounts expressed in U.S. dollars

Barrick Gold Corporation (NYSE:ABX)(TSX:ABX) ("Barrick" or the "Company") today announced that the Company and the Government of Tanzania have agreed on a framework for a new partnership between Acacia Mining plc and the Government of Tanzania, whereby economic benefits generated by Acacia's operations would be shared with Tanzania on a 50/50 basis going forward.

A framework outlining the necessary steps for achieving this outcome was signed today in Dar es Salaam following a meeting between Barrick Executive Chairman John L. Thornton and the President of the United Republic of Tanzania, His Excellency Dr. John P. Magufuli.

"Following constructive discussions with our Tanzanian partners, we have developed a framework for a modern, 21st century partnership that should ensure Acacia's operations generate sustainable benefits and mutual prosperity for the people of Tanzania, as well as for the owners of Barrick and Acacia," said Barrick Executive Chairman John L. Thornton. "A partnership requires trust between the parties, and transparency is the currency of trust. Through our discussions over the last three months we have established both and this will form the basis of our relationship in the future."

Barrick and the Government of Tanzania have also agreed to form a working group that will focus on the resolution of outstanding tax claims against Acacia. Under this proposal, as a gesture of good faith, Acacia would make a payment of $300 million to the Government of Tanzania, with payment terms to be settled by the working group.

All proposals are subject to review and approval by the Independent Committee of Acacia's Board of Directors and Acacia shareholders. Acacia will provide further details on the proposals in due course.

Barrick holds a 63.9 percent equity interest in Acacia, a publicly traded company listed on the London Stock Exchange that is operated independently of Barrick.

Rift Basin Block operator Africa Oil has announced that the Ethiopian Ministry of Mines, Petroleum and Natural Gas has awarded the Canadian company a one year extension to the block license which will now expire in February 2018.

The extension is intended to allow the operator time to pursue its drilling options after completing 2D seismic acquisition of a 600 kilometer land and lake survey in the third quarter of 2015 which identified source rock outcrops and oil slicks on the lakes in the block where there was previously no existing seismic or wells.

The seismic also identified Ngamia-style structures reachable from shore as well as large structures offshore could provide materiality once basin is ‘proven’.

The explorer is also expected in the meantime to seek for a joint venture partner following the departure of American explorer Marathon Oil which had acquired a 50% interest in the Rift Basin Area in 2014.

This is the second extension after the Government of Ethiopia granted a twelve month extension to the initial exploration period last year, which expired in February 2017.

The Rift Basin Area covers 42,519 square kilometres and is on trend and extending to the northeast of the highly prospective blocks in the Tertiary rift valley including the South Omo Block, and Kenyan Blocks 10BA, 10BB, 13T, and 12

Nickel ,Mangan reüssiert!
NICKEL / EVs / Exporte / INDONESIEN / CHINA - Weinberg "Nickel gibt heute Morgen im Einklang mit den anderen Industriemetallen leicht nach und fällt auf 12.800 USD je Tonne. Sorgen über einen nicht ausreichend versorgten Markt – vor allem wegen der erwartet hohen Nachfrage rund um das Thema Elektromobilität – werden abgelöst von Meldungen über ein höheres Angebot. Der indonesische Energie- und Rohstoffminister hat gestern mitgeteilt, dass mittlerweile Exportquoten für insgesamt 20,4 Mio. Tonnen Nickelerz vergeben wurden. Dies dürfte sich in den nächsten Monaten in höheren Ausfuhren widerspiegeln.

Bis Anfang November hatte Indonesien demnach 2,725 Mio. Tonnen Nickelerz mit niedrigem Nickelgehalt exportiert. Das wahrscheinlich höhere Angebot trifft Industriekreisen zufolge auf eine derzeit eher verhaltene Nachfrage der chinesischen Edelstahlproduzenten. Bislang war China der Hauptabnehmer für indonesisches Nickelerz. Das Erz wird dort überwiegend in der Produktion von Nickelroheisen (Nickel Pig Iron, NPI) verwendet.

Mittlerweile werden aber auch in Indonesien selbst NPI-Produktionskapazitäten gebaut. Bis Ende nächsten Jahres sollen Kapazitäten von 4,7 Mio. Tonnen zur Verfügung stehen. Das heißt, dass damit zukünftig mehr Nickelerz im Land selbst verarbeitet wird. Größere Auswirkungen auf die Verfügbarkeit am Weltmarkt sollte dies aber nicht haben, da die indonesische Regierung weitere Exportlizenzen vergeben dürfte – vor der Einführung des Exportverbots unbehandelter Erze Anfang 2014 hatte Indonesien rund 65 Mio. Tonnen Nickelerz exportiert." ...
