NORTH COUNTRY GOLD
Vancouver — When the first results from the first drill program of
a newly-listed company include
hits like 42 metres of 5.88 grams
gold per tonne, the market usually
responds. And that is exactly what
happened to North Country Gold
(ncg-v), which shot up 45% in a day
on news of its results at the Three
Bluffs gold project in Nunavut.
The Three Bluffs project is
roughly 300 km northeast of Baker
Lake, in the centre of North Country’s 2,256-sq.-km land package.
The northeast-striking property
covers a large segment of the
Committee Bay greenstone belt,
which North Country says is underexplored and home to at least
five drill-ready gold targets.
Three Bluffs is the most advanced target within North Coun-
try’s property and consists of a
near-surface, high-grade hinge
structure that is already home to 2.7
million indicated tonnes grading
5.85 grams gold as well as 1.3 million
inferred tonnes averaging 5.98
grams gold. In a recent spring drill
program, shortened by unusually
warm weather, North Country extended the known mineralization

hole 53 returned 114 metres of 0.42%

These results confirm the presence
of higher-grade enriched copper
mineralization in the eastern half
of the zone.
Hole 61, drilled 250 metres farther east and slightly south, intercepted 78 metres grading 0.58%
copper and 0.08 gram gold, leaving
the east end of the zone open to
the south.
The other 10 new holes are from
the west end of the zone, which

Kinross Gold (k-t, kgc-n).
Last year Kinross paid about
US$104.4 million for a 22.5% interest in Harry Winston Diamond’s (hw-t, hwd-n) 40% stake
in the Diavik joint venture
(Kinross’s 9% indirect stake in the
Diavik mine). Now it plans to sell
it to Harry Winston for US$220
million, making a profit of about
US$115.6 million.
Under the proposed deal, Harry
Winston will pay Kinross US$50
million in cash, roughly 7.1 million
Harry Winston shares valued at
about US$100 million, and a 12month US$70-million note. The
note will bear an annual interest
rate of 5%. The boards of both
companies have yet to approve the
agreement.
Kinross is also arranging to sell
its 19.9% direct stake in Harry
Winston to a group of financial institutions through a block trade.
Kinross acquired its stake in
March 2009, buying 15.2 million
shares for US$3 apiece at a cost of
about US$45.6 million. The transaction hands Kinross a profit of
roughly US$150 million.
Back of the envelope calculations suggest that after investing a
total of US$150 million last year in
Harry Winston and Diavik, Kinross
walks away with a gain this year of
about US$268 million.
“Our initial investment has pro-
0.05 gram gold from 46 metres

metres of 0.42% copper, 24 metres
of 0.54% copper and 14 metres of
0.31% copper. And hole 55 returned
45 metres grading 0.81% copper.
AQM will continue to grid-test
the Main zone while searching for
strike extensions to the east and
west. The company also plans to
drill a few deep holes to probe the

Sage Gold explores Nevada, Timmins
BY TRISH SAYWELL
Three years ago Sage Gold
(sgx-v) had a market capitalization
of about $40 million. Today the
figure stands at about $6 million
but the junior’s president and chief
executive Nigel Lees believes
that’s about to change with the help
of two option agreements the company has inked this year on properties in Timmins, Ont., and Nevada.
In March, Sage Gold signed an
option agreement with Gryphon
Gold (ggn-t) to earn a 50% interest in Borealis, a fully permitted
gold project and past-producing
open-pit mining operation, about a
three-hour drive south of Reno in
the Walker Lane gold belt of western Nevada.
If all goes according to plan,
Sage Gold will have a feasibility
study completed on Borealis before
the end of this year, a bankable
feasibility completed early next
year and be in production by the
end of 2011.
“Getting permitting in Nevada
isn’t easy and we are fully permitted,” Lees told a group of investment advisors and investors at a
recent luncheon at the Albany Club
in Toronto.
Sage Gold’s strategy is straightforward. “We thought it might be
tough to raise money for a small
exploration company so we wanted

In a 2009 prefeasibility study,
Gryphon Gold reported that the
proposed Borealis mine would produce about 247,000 oz. gold and
741,000 oz. silver over five primary
production years, followed by one
year of additional leaching. (The
prefeasibility study did not contemplate mining sulphide gold

underlying the oxide gold.)

vided us with a great return and
now is a good time to realize gains
from that initial investment for our
shareholders,” Steve Mitchell,
Kinross’s vice-president of corporate communications, told The
Northern Miner.
“The share price has had a very
nice ride since we first made our
investment at US$3. We decided to
take our profits on that initial investment but we took an equity
share in Harry Winston as part of
the consideration, so we continue
to have a lot of confidence in diamonds and in Harry Winston.”
In a note to clients, UBS Research writes that Kinross could
use some of its profits to help fund
its recent 9.4% stake ($600 million)
in Red Back Mining (rbi-t) and
that there is potential for the gold
producer to raise its stake in Harry
Winston from 7.1 million shares
after the closing of the two transactions, should Harry Winston
elect to settle the 12-month note
payable in shares.
UBS has a 12-month share price
target on Kinross Gold of US$25.50.
(At presstime in New York, Kinross
was trading at US$16.34 per share.)
Diavik, Canada’s second diamond mine, began producing diamonds in the Northwest Territories
in January 2003. The mine is based
on four diamond-bearing kimberlite pipes within Lac de Gras. Today,
the Diavik mine is Canada’s largest
diamond producer and one of the
most profitable diamond mines in
the world.
The mine is a joint venture
between Harry Winston and Diavik Diamond Mines, a wholly

owned subsidiary of London-based
Rio Tinto (rtp-n, rio-l).
Under the joint-venture agreement, Harry Winston Diamond
pays 40% of the operating and
capital costs and has the right to
receive and market 40% of Diavik’s
diamond production; it does not
operate the mine.
In Toronto, Harry Winston
shares fell $1.55 or 10.65% on the
news to close at $13 per share,
with 4.5 million shares trading
hands.
Over the last year, Harry Winston has traded in a range of $5.36$14.95, with 76.6 million shares
outstanding. UBS Research has a
12-month target price on the stock
of $15.50 per share.
Kinross is also buying B2Gold’s
(bto-t) right to acquire an interest
in the Kupol East and West li-
cences in Russia for an upfront
payment of US$33 million and
subsequent payments of US$15
million for each incremental million-oz. of gold reserves contained
in the licence areas, up to a maximum of 9 million oz. gold.
B2Gold will also receive payments equal to 1.5% of a net
smelter return royalty from the
start of production, subject to a
right for Kinross to repurchase
the royalty for US$30 million.
Under the terms of a previous
agreement, Kinross had undertaken to secure a 37.5% joint-venture interest for B2Gold in the
Kupol East and West exploration
licences areas.
Under the new agreement,
Kinross is no longer obligated to
enter into a joint-venture arrangement with B2Gold.
The Kupol East and West li-
cences are adjacent to the Kupol
gold mine and will remain 100%owned by the Chukotka Mining &
Geological Co. (CMCG), which
also owns 100% of the Kupol mine.
CMGC is owned 75% by Kinross
and 25% by the State Unitary Enterprise of the Chukotsky Autonomous Okrug (Chukotsnab).
Clive Johnson, Vancouver-based
B2Gold’s president and chief executive, said proceeds from the
sale would help the company chase
additional acquisitions, while at the
same time the terms of the transaction allow the company to benefit
from the exploration upside at
Kupol through contingent payments and royalties, making it a
win-win.
B2Gold currently has two mines
in Nicaragua and development and
exploration assets in Nicaragua,
Colombia and Costa Rica.
The other two areas that will see
drilling in the coming weeks are
separate targets. The Antler zone is
about 2 km to the southwest and
has seen some limited drilling. The
Hayes target, which lies another
kilometre to the southwest along
the traceable banded iron formation, has not been previously
drilled. North Country has four
drill rigs on site and plans to complete 20,000 metres of drilling.
In addition, North Country is
working through a Titan induced
polarization survey that will cover
7 km of the prospective trend, from
east of the Three Bluffs to west of
the Hayes target. The survey will
test for additional blind mineralization potential in an area that has
limited bedrock exposure.
North Country was born in
April as a spin off from CBR Gold,
which has since renamed itself
Niblack Gold (nib-v) in honour
of its flagship asset, the Niblack
volcanogenic massive sulphide
project in Alaska.
As part of the spinout, Niblack
transferred roughly $4.7 million
into North Country.
The company recently boosted
that working capital with a
$1.7-million private placement,
selling 1.2 million flow-through
shares at 32¢ apiece as well as 4.3
million units at 30¢ apiece. Each
unit comprised a share and half a
warrant, exercisable at 40¢ for
two years.
And investors certainly liked the
company’s first drill results from
Three Bluffs as North Country’s
share price gained 11.5¢ to close at
37¢. The company has 60 million
shares outstanding.

The best result came from hole
82, which hit 42.1 metres grading
5.88 grams gold from 7 metres
depth. The hit in hole 82 included
15 metres averaging 10.2 grams
gold.
Hole 83 cut 3.5 metres grading
10.2 grams gold from 38 metres
downhole, followed 15 metres later
by 19 metres of 2.41 grams gold.
Hole 87 produced a 25-metre intercept grading 4.17 grams gold, starting 19 metres downhole. And hole
88 returned 31.9 metres carrying
2.27 grams gold, starting at 14 metres depth.
Mineralization at Three Bluffs
appears to be controlled by a
steeply dipping, folded iron formation that can be traced on surface
for 10 km and of which only about 1
km has been explored. The spring
drill holes all targeted the shallow,
western, updip portion of the
hinge, an area that was undercut in
previous drilling.
North Country plans to follow up
on these hits with 11 more holes
into the shallow western hinge,
which will be part of a summer
drill program that recently got underway. The company will also
probe three other areas this summer, one of which is farther west
along strike from Three Bluffs.

depth and drill a few holes on several satellite targets before the end
of the year.
AQM’s drilling success brought
joint-venture partner Teck back to
the negotiating table. The two companies recently amended the terms
of AQM’s earn-in in order to move
the project quickly along.
Under the new deal, AQM is immediately gaining a 50% stake in
Zafranal for having spent US$7.5
million on exploration over the
last year. AQM is the project operator and will solely fund the next
US$10.7 million in project work,
after which Teck will start contributing its half of costs. If Zafranal
reaches a positive development
decision, Teck can elect to become
operator.
For AQM, the key changes in the
new deal include: AQM no longer
has to make cash payments to Teck.
And Teck no longer holds the right
to back in for a 60% stake or hold a
net smelter return royalty. Instead,
the companies will be 50-50 partners in owning a new Zafranalfocused company.
Teck discovered Zafranal in
2003, during a regional exploration
program in southern Peru. The
major outlined an interesting conceptual resource through limited
drilling. In early 2009, after a bidding process, AQM won the right
to back in to Zafranal.
The junior soon kicked off a
40,000-metre drill program focused primarily on the central 2
km of the 3.5-km long, east-west
trending Main zone, which is one
of six porphyry copper-gold
targets identified at Zafranal. To
date, the program has defined
mineralized zone that covers 3.3
km along strike, 600 metres in
width and varies between 50 and
150 metres in thickness.
Other strong results from the
program include 118 metres of
1% copper, 358 metres of 0.7%
copper, 132 metres of 0.92% copper and 145 metres of 1.21% copper.
Mineralization at Zafranal is
zoned, with a leached zone atop an
immature secondary enrichment
blanket covering a little-explored
hypogene sulphide zone at depth.
AQM is currently awaiting results
from an initial metallurgical testwork program.
The Zafranal project is 90 km
northwest of Arequipa, 60 km
from the Panamerican Highway,
along a gravel road.
AQM gained 10¢ on Zafranal’s
latest drill results and the amended
joint-venture deal news to reach
81¢.
The company has a 52-week trading range of 50¢-$1.10 and 97 million
shares outstanding.

Sage Gold believes that there is
“significant opportunity” to expand
both the sulphide and the oxide resource at Borealis.
“When (the previous operators)
Echo Bay Mines hit sulphides, they
stopped,” Bill Love, a geologist and
Sage Gold’s vice-president of business development, said. “But there
are tremendous high-grade pods
of sulphide material. We are permitted to drive a ramp into the
higher grade core.”
In their presentation, Sage Gold’s
managers noted that they expect
the Borealis deposit to yield 50,000
oz. gold per year but there is the
opportunity to expand to 75,000 oz.
per year in oxide production.
Miners operated Borealis from
1981 through 1990 and produced
gold from eight open pits. The
mined ore contained about
635,000 oz. gold, of which about
500,000 oz. was recovered through
a heap-leach operation.
Under Sage Gold’s option agreement, it can earn a 50% stake in
Borealis through a $400,000-private placement in Gryphon Gold
and by spending $9 million in project finance before June 2011. A
drill program is underway to expand and upgrade the oxide resource. Sage Gold estimates capital
expenditure will amount to about
US$17.2 million.
Meanwhile, in northeastern Ontario, Sage Gold signed an option
agreement in February with St
Andrew Goldfields (sas-t) to
earn a 60% interest for $3 million
in the ground and $200,000 in
cash and shares over three years,
in the Clavos property in the Tim-
mins gold camp.
Clavos is 10 km from Brigus
Gold’s (brd-t, brd-x) 2,000-tonneper-day mill and 20 km from Goldcorp’s (g-t, gg-n) Hoyle Pond
mine, which has produce more
than 2.4 million oz. gold since 1985
and still operates today.
Clavos has existing infrastructure including an underground
ramp access to the 300-metre level,
underground levels developed
every 25 metres, power to site, a
surface ventilation system and
fully permitted waste water management. It also has a mining permit valid until 2019. About $72
million has been spent on Clavos,
of which $46 million went into underground workings.
The deposit was mined briefly
between 2005 until August 2006
and again until May 2007.
Scott Wilson RPA prepared a National Instrument 43-101 compliant
resource estimate in October 2006.
At a cutoff grade of 4 grams gold
per tonne, Clavos has measured
and indicated resources of 143,000
tonnes grading 8.07 grams gold per
tonne for contained gold of 37,100
oz. and inferred resources of
529,000 tonnes of 6.49 grams gold
for 110,300 oz. contained gold. (The
resource was not reduced to reflect
mining from October 2006 to May
2007).
Sage Gold also has exploration
properties in Ontario’s BeardmoreGeraldton gold camp.
At presstime in Toronto, Sage
Gold shares were 19¢, trading
within a 52-week range of 17¢-75¢.
In July 2008, Sage Gold was trading
at $1.60 per share. The company has
30.4 million shares outstanding.

Aurizon Mines gets
busy in July
July has been a busy month at
Aurizon Mines (arz-t, azk-n). On
July 5, the Vancouver-based gold
producer unveiled that it had significantly updated its resource for
the Hosco gold deposit on its Joanna property in Quebec. And a day
later, it announced a joint venture
and option agreement with NioGold Mining (nox-v, noxgf-o) on
its Marban Block property in the
Malartic gold camp in Quebec’s
Abitibi region.
The Joanna property, which is
about 20 km east of RouynNoranda, now has measured and
indicated resources at a 0.5 gram
gold per tonne cutoff grade of
40.44 million tonnes averaging
1.33 grams gold per tonne for 1.73
million oz. gold, up from a November 2009 estimate of 30.08 million
tonnes at 1.33 grams gold for 1.29
million oz. gold.
The increase comes from outside the pit outline used in the December 2009 prefeasibility study
and the lateral extensions between
surface and a depth of 100 metres.
Inferred resources gained 11%
or 91,000 oz., and now stand at
23.17 million tonnes of 1.19 grams
gold for contained gold of 887,000
oz., up from the previous estimate
of 20.81 million tonnes of 1.19
grams gold for 796,000 oz. contained gold.
Separately, Aurizon’s agreement
with NioGold allows it to earn a
50% interest in the Marban Block,
subject to underlying royalties, by
spending $20 million over three
years, of which $5 million must
be spent in the first year. Aurizon
also has to complete an updated
resource estimate and based on
that, make resource payments
equal to $30 (or $40 if the price of
gold is above US$1,560 per oz.)
multiplied by half the number of
gold oz. in the measured and indicated category, and a further $20
(or $30 if the price of gold is
above US$1,560 per oz.) multiplied by half the number of gold
oz. in the inferred category, based
on the updated resource estimate.
Aurizon can then earn an additional 10% interest by completing a
feasibility study and a further 5%
for a total of 65% by arranging financing to bring the project into
production.

Goldcorp invests
$15.6M in Evolving Gold
BY SUSAN KIRWIN
Although the Evolving Gold
(evg-v) team consists of several
former Newmont Mining
(nmc-t, nem-n) people, it’s Goldcorp (g-t, gg-n) that has decided
to invest $15.6 million in the junior
gold explorer.
Goldcorp is buying 19 million
Evolving shares at 82¢ apiece in a
private placement — a significant
stake in a company that currently
has 107.2 million shares outstanding and a market cap of $85.8 million.
Evolving president and chief geologist Quinton Hennigh, who used
to work for Newmont, says Goldcorp had no prior interest in Evolving until now.
“I can’t speak on behalf of Goldcorp but I would say there was a lot
of intrigue with the fact that we
have a large land position in the
Carlin trend,” Hennigh says.
Evolving will use the funds to
explore its Rattlesnake Hills gold
project in Wyoming and its Carlin
and Humboldt gold projects in
Nevada. Rattlesnake Hills is a former Newmont project and Evolving has a lease and sublease agree-
Molycorp to raise $240M
in IPO for REE mine
Molycorp, owner of the Mountain
Pass rare earth element (REE) mine
in California, is going ahead with
an initial public offering (IPO) topping US$420 million so it can ramp
up North America’s only current
source of the metals needed for
hybrid cars, wind power turbines
and other high-tech applications.
Developing new sources of REEs
is becoming more important with
time because China, which produces about 95% of the world’s
REE supply, is continually cutting
its export quotas.
Molycorp, based in Greenwood
Village, Colo., is looking at issuing
28.13 million shares at a price between US$15 and US$17 per share
with an overallotment option for
an additional 4.2 million shares.
The company’s subsidiary, Molycorp Minerals, will use the funds to
modernize and expand the Mountain Pass mine and production facility. After restarting production
at Mountain Pass in early 2009,
(mining stopped in 2002), Molycorp said it wanted to ramp up production to 40 million lbs. of rare
earth products per year by 2012.
Molycorp spokesman Jim Sims
was unable to comment on any aspect of the IPO or the development
of the mine restoration.
The plan as of last summer was
to dewater the mine over a span of
a year and then remove overburd–
en for another year to expose an
area of fresh ore that will be
needed to meet Molycorp’s 2012
production goals.
In June, Molycorp announced
that it had signed a letter of intent
with Toronto-based Neo Material
Technologies (nem-t), which
produces neodymium-iron-boron
magnetic powders and other rareearth-based engineered materials
to customers in China, the U.S.,
Japan and Europe. The companies
have agreed to cooperate on a rare
earth “mine to magnets” supply
chain to their mutual benefit. Neo
will provide Molycorp with technical assistance and know-how
with respect to production of rare
earth metals, alloys and magnets
and Molycorp will consider potential supply agreements.
Neo has been reliant on China for
its rare earth products, however,
the company set up shop in China
years ago to secure its supply for
products manufactured there. The
Chinese government limits how
much rare earth products Neo can
export for use elsewhere, so having
a source outside of China would
be advantageous.
There are several other REE
projects outside of China that are
being developed in addition to
Mountain Pass.
Avalon Rare Metals (avl-t) is
developing the Nechalacho project
near Thor Lake, N.W.T. A prefeasibility study recently put development costs at $889.7 million with
production starting in 2015.
Two of Great Western Minerals’ (gwg-v) more advanced projects are the Hoidas Lake project
near Uranium City, Sask., and the
Steenkampskraal mine in South
Africa.
Australia’s Lynas Corp. (lyc-a)
is developing the Mt. Weld rare
earth oxide deposit in Western
Australia, complete with an advanced materials plant located in
Malaysia. The company says the
project has the capacity to supply
up to 20% of the global REE market for 30 years. Production is supposed to start in 2011.

Talison, Salares
Lithium to merge
Vancouver — Australian producer Talison Minerals and Vancouver-based Salares Lithium
(lit-v) are joining forces to create
the world’s largest publicly traded
lithium production and exploration company.
Talison is already the largest
lithium producer in the world,
based on its hard-rock mine in the
Greenbushes area of Western
Australia. Lithium mining at
Greenbushes dates to 1983; the processing plant was built in 1985 and
has been expanded several times
since, to now produce roughly
260,000 tonnes of lithium concentrate annually.
That production level has enabled Talison to position itself as
one of the largest suppliers of lithium in the key Chinese lithium
market. Now the Perth-based
company is taking over Salares
Lithium and listing on the Venture
Exchange.
Salares is a lithium explorer with
a large, prospective brine project
portfolio focused exclusively on
Chile, which produces more lithium than any other country. Salares’ 400-sq.-km land package in
northern Chile’s Atacama Desert is
home to five salares, or brine lakes,
and the company’s recent geophysical work has increased its
confidence that those lakes host a
significant lithium resource.
The proposed merger would see
Talison handing over 2.81 shares
for each Salares share, resulting in
a new company owned 80% by
Talison current shareholders and
20% by current Salares shareholders.
The offer values a Salares share
at $1.25, a 98% premium based on
the company’s 20-day volumeweighted average share price. The
merged entity will be known as
Talison Lithium and will have offices in Perth and Vancouver.
As Salares and Talison work
through the merger requirements,
including obtaining approval from
Salares shareholders, Salares is undertaking a $40-million private
placement of subscription receipts. Talison’s major shareholder,
Resource Capital Fund, has fully
subscribed for the private placement but will scale back its commitment to allow other investors

New Gold produces 90,000 oz. in Q2
New Gold (ngd-t, ngd-x) shares
were up nearly 5% to $5.25 apiece
on July 20 on news the company
was able to increase gold production by 62% in the second quarter,
due mostly to its Mesquite gold
mine in California.
New Gold produced about
90,000 oz. gold from its mines in
California, Mexico and Australia,
up from 56,000 oz. during the same
period last year.
“With further increases in gold
production and decreases in cash
cost, we expect the second half of
2010 to be an exciting one for New
Gold,” said Robert Gallagher, New
Gold’s president and CEO, in a
statement.
A decrease in cash costs would
be welcomed after a rise to an average of US$490 per oz. in the sec-
ond quarter from US$468 per oz.
in the same period last year.
The company expects to produce 330,000 oz. to 360,000 oz.
gold in total over the course of
2010 with cash costs between
US$445 and US$465 per oz. sold,
net of byproduct sales.
Gold sales from the Mesquite
mine rose 42% in the second quarter to 39,000 oz. gold from 27,000
oz. while actual production was
39,000 oz. compared to 26,000 oz.
New Gold said it was able to increase production because it used
a lower waste mining requirement and was therefore able to
increase tonnage compared to
last year. There was also an improvement in gold recoveries,
though some of the benefits were
offset by mining ore below reserve
grade.
For the first half of 2010, gold
sales at Mesquite increased by
47% to 88,000 oz. gold with production at 83,000 oz., up from
60,000 oz.
While New Gold was busy
fighting with Mexico’s environmental authority to keep its Cerro
San Pedro gold-silver mine in
San Luis Potosi state open, the mining team was able to increase production at the mine by 22% to
29,000 oz. Gold sales increased
just 6% to about 25,000 oz. while
cash costs dropped substantially
to US$288 per oz. compared to
US$429 per oz.
New Gold said higher byproduct
revenues helped lower cash costs
and an increase in tonnes of ore
mined boosted production.
The lower production in the
first quarter of 2010 was due to the
company’s explosive permit being
delayed. In the first two quarters,
New Gold produced a total of
42,000 oz. at Cerro San Pedro,
compared to about 45,000 oz.
during the first half of 2009.
New Gold has been in court
trying to undo the Mexican environmental regulatory agency’s
move to cancel the company’s environmental impact statement.
The company has appealed
against the court’s recent decision
in favour of the agency. An evaluation by the judge is expected to
take four to six months. The mine
remains in operation for the time
being as a result of an injunction
granted in New Gold’s favour in
late 2009.
Finally, New Gold’s Peak goldcopper mine in New South Wales,
Australia, was basically unchanged hovering around the
22,000-oz. mark. Cash costs rose
significantly to US$459 per oz.
from US$364 per oz. The company
said the increase was due to the
timing of concentrate shipments
and related inventory charges, an
increase in salary costs and the appreciation of the Australian dollar.
The company noted that its average realized copper price had risen
significantly from US$2.07 per
lb. to US$3.09 per lb.
During the first half of the year,
production at the Peak mine was
about 42,000 oz. gold, down from
43,000 oz., while copper production was about 4 million lbs., down
from 4.3 million lbs.

Shrewd Kinross
reaps windfall
When it comes to adversity, some people just rise above it all.
• That’s certainly the case with Kinross Gold and its brief but very
profitable dabbling in the diamond market in the form of exquisitely
timed investments in Harry Winston Diamond and the Diavik
diamond mine in the Northwest Territories.
At the onset of the global recession, the rough diamond market
virtually dried up, putting Harry Winston in a very vulnerable
position as it and partner Rio Tinto were simultaneously looking at
suspending mining and raising large sums of cash to finance
underground mine expansion.
Flush with cash from its profitable gold mines, Kinross stepped in
early last year with purchases of minority interests in both Harry
Winston and the Diavik mine for about US$150 million in total.
Of course, the diamond sector bounced back faster than many
predicted, thanks mainly to De Beers’ deep production cuts,
allowing Kinross this week to announce it is unwinding its various
diamond investments for a tidy profit of about US$268 million.
• Looks like there’s still a healthy appetite for new junior gold-silver
plays, as shown by the closing of a $300-million offering by
Vancouver-based Mala Noche Resources.
Money will be used to close the acquisition of Goldcorp’s San
Dimas gold-silver mining complex in the historic San Dimas
epithermal mining district located on the border of Mexico’s
Durango and Sinaloa states. The three mines Mala Noche is buying
produced 113,000 oz. gold and 5.1 million oz. silver last year.
Mala Noche is changing its downer name to a more upbeat
“Primero Mining” soon.
• The mineral-rich Sahel desert region of French-speaking West
Africa is getting much more dangerous, with the killing of
kidnapped 78-year-old French aid worker and retired engineer
Michel Germaneau by Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM),
who number about 400 fighters. The killing followed a FrenchMauritanian commando raid in late July on an Al-Qaeda camp in
Mali where Germaneau was mistakenly believed to have been held.
Germaneau had been kidnapped in Niger in April while helping to
build local schools.
The Germaneau killing has outraged the French public and
French Prime Minister Francois Fillon announced for the first time,
in unusually blunt language for the French, that “France is at war
with Al-Qaeda.” The French and U.S. governments are already
supporting a joint military headquarters opened in April in southern
Algeria by the governments of Algeria, Mauritania, Mali and Niger.
A British ex-pat was beheaded by AQIM in the region last year,
and two Spanish nationals kidnapped in Mauritania in November
remain unfound.
• The juniors exploring for Arctic gold are providing a lot of the
buzz for penny stock enthusiasts in 2010. This week it was North
Country Gold’s turn, as its stock popped on the back of long, highgrade gold intercepts at its wholly-owned Three Bluffs gold deposit
in Nunavut’s Committee Bay greenstone belt.
The Edmonton-based, John Williamson-led company has been
successful in drilling out an extension of a known high-grade hinge
zone. Existing indicated and inferred resources at Three Bluffs total
752,000 oz. gold at around 5.9 grams gold per tonne, and these latest
results hint there’s more to come.
The junior plans to drill 20,000 metres this year at Three Bluffs
using four rigs, and has already discovered a new gold-rich zone
named Antler, situated 1.5 km west of Three Bluffs.
• While the gold fever generated by Underworld Resources at its
White Gold project in the Yukon was cut short in March by the
junior’s $140-million acquisition by Kinross Gold, Kaminak Gold is
picking up the slack with enticing early results from its Coffee
property in the White Gold district.
This year Kaminak has extended Coffee’s newly discovered Latte
gold zone, with hits such as 2.35 grams gold over 51 metres and 1.27
grams gold over 78 metres. Upcoming work is being helped along by
a recent $10-million financing.
• Among the junior miners in Canada’s North, a couple of
milestones were met.
Consolidated Thompson Iron Mines celebrated the maritime
departure from its new port facilities in Sept-Îles, Que., of its first
shipment of iron ore concentrate to its Chinese clients, with product
mined from its now fully operational Bloom Lake mine in Quebec.
And North American Tungsten announcing it would reopen the
suspended Cantung tungsten mine in the Nahanni region of the
Northwest Territories, thanks to a rebound in tungsten prices. The
first full month of production will likely be October.

Canadian M&As
hit 5-year low
Canadian merger and acquisition (M&A)
activity fell 30% in the first half of 2010,
according to a new report issued by mergermarket.
The report, H1 2010 Canadian M&A
Round-Up, which was released mid-July,
compiles data based on transactions over
US$5 million announced between January 1
and June 30, 2010.
The following is a condensed version of
the findings. To download a copy, visit
www.mergermarket.com.
In Canada, money spent on M&As totaled US$29.6 billion for the first half of 2010,
down from US$42.5 billion spent in the
same period of 2009. This is the lowest halfyear period since 2005.
Mega deals, which constitute a deal over
US$500 million, followed the downward
trend, with only US$18.1 billion changing
hands in the first half of 2010. Despite this,
M&A activity saw a spike in deals with 210
ral resources. Energy, mining and utilities
represented 65% of the total value of inbound deals.
Energy deals dominated M&A activity, in
terms of value, representing 49% in the first
half 2010. The industry saw 57 energy sectorrelated transactions.
Deals in energy, mining and utilities together represented 66% of overall Canadian deal value in the first half of 2010.
About 37% or 77 deals were attributed to
these sectors.
On the back of a stronger Canadian dollar,
the industry has set its sight on the U.S.,
with 51 M&A outbound deals worth US$10.6
billion taking place between the neighbouring nations.
A weakened Sterling also garnered Canadian companies’ interest with 10 deals taking place between the commonwealth siblings worth US$866 million.

announced in the first half of 2010 in Canada.
The fragile economy of the first half of
2009 saw 153 M&As.
Goldman Sachs and TD Securities battled
for the top financial advisor by value — with
Goldman Sachs coming on top with US$9.8
billion worth of deals, while TD Securities
completed 28 transactions worth US$8.1
billion. This put TD Securities in first place
for rakings by volume, up seven places
from the first half of 2009.
Blake, Cassels & Graydon held steady as
the most active law firm, with 36 deals
worth US$18.36 million. While Osler,
Hoskin & Harcourt racked up US$18.4
billion worth of deals.
Mergermarket also noticed a clear trend
in investments in Canadian resources, with
the United States and China being first in
line to get a hold of Canadian companies
and properties.
Some 78% of the money spent on inbound
M&As came from China and the U.S. in the
first half of 2010 as the two countries jockeyed for a stake in Canada’s array of natu-
ments were in the pharma, medical and
biotech sectors (US$3.8 billion or 27.8%
worth) in the first half of 2010 — energy,
mining and utilities came in second, with
19.5% of the value spent on deals being attributed to these sectors.
Overall, the first half of 2010 saw 89 Canadian outbound deals worth US$13.7 billion,
the highest in value and volume since the
second half of 2007.
Among the firm’s findings was the shift
from investments in energy, mining and
utilities towards alternative energy over the
past two years. M&A activity in alternative
energy rose from US$319 million in 2008 (a
mere 0.7% of Canadian Energy deals) to
US$3.9 billion or 7% in 2009. The first half
of 2010 alone has already seen seven deals
worth US$711 million.
The report also noted that between 2004
and 2009, the alternative energy sector
represented 4.8% of all energy-related
transactions in Canada. From 2009 to the
end of the first half of 2010, that average
increased to 11.5%.

Goldcorp enlists Cabo Drilling for Hollinger
North Vancouver-based Cabo Dril­
ling (cbe-v) has snagged a contract
with Goldcorp (g-t, gg-n) to drill
5,000 metres at the company’s Hollinger gold mine in Timmins, Ont.
The contract, which is for reverse circulation (RC) hammer
drilling, will help Goldcorp establish potential open-pit mineralization at Hollinger, which is part of
it’s Porcupine project.
Cabo has a fleet of RC drills at
its disposal including large diameter downhole reverse hammer
precision rigs and Acker longstroke drills, which can be
mounted on Flex Trac Nodwell
carriers or Fly skids to minimize
the environmental footprint.
A press release emphasized both
companies’ focus on safety.
“We are pleased to join the Goldcorp team at the Porcupine project,
where they truly believe that safety
is the priority under all circumstances. Every employee, of both
companies, is encouraged to work
safely and promote safety as a main
part of their job,” said John Versfelt, chairman, president and CEO
of Cabo Drilling, in a statement.
In addition to Hollinger, the Porcupine gold mines area hosts the
Dome mine and mill, the Hoyle
Pond mine and a large land package
in the Timmins gold camp.
Cabo also recently participated
in Northern College’s Surface Diamond Driller Assistant Common
Core Program graduation luncheon in Timmins, using the opportunity to hire new grads.
Grupo Mexico to merge
Asarco, Southern Copper
One of Mexico’s biggest natural
resource company’s, Grupo
Mexico, wants to unite two of its
affiliates to create a behemoth in
the copper world.
The company is proposing to
merge Asarco and Southern
Copper (scco-n) to usher in
greater efficiency and rationalize
its mining division.
The two companies would be
brought together under the Americas Mining Corp. banner — which
is also a subsidiary of Grupo Mexico — in a deal that would give
Southern Copper shareholders
1.24 Americas Mining shares for
each Southern share held. The
shares of the merged company
would then trade in both the U.S.
and Peru.
The deal values Asarco at
US$5.9 billion and would leave
Southern Copper’s minority
shareholders with 16.6% of the
new company.
Southern Copper has a strong
Peruvian focus and boasts the
largest copper reserves in the
world. It is 80% held by Grupo
Mexico.
Asarco is the third-largest copper producer in the U.S., producing roughly 400 million lbs. of
copper per year. Both companies
are integrated miners with smelting and refining facilities.
Grupo Mexico regained full
control of Asarco late last year
when it pulled it out of a four-year
bankruptcy protection.
By bringing the two mining units
together, investors would have a
single stock through which to access the conglomerate’s mining
division. Grupo also has railroad
and oil-drilling units. It is considering doing a separate initial public offering for its rail division. As for the increased efficiency
that Grupo believes the merger
would bring, the company says
transportation costs and capital
investments would be lowered if
the two companies were merged.
Word of the proposed merg–
er had yet to unleash a positive
impact on Southern Copper’s
share price as the company was
off a percentage point to US$31.72
in New York on July 23. The stock
has, however, climbed from
US$29.33 on July 16.
BY TRISH SAYWELL
shareholders approved the name
change at the company’s annual
general meeting on June 17 and its
shares began trading under the
new ticker symbol on July 19.
“The strategy is to become
global,” Frank Lagiglia, head of
investor relations at China Gold
International, explained in a telephone interview from Vancouver.
“They (China National Gold) want
to use us as a vehicle to go out
and start acquiring projects and
the TSX listing helps them do that
because we have access to North
American markets.”
In theory, of course, that makes
a lot of sense, industry observers
say. But China Gold International
could also become a vehicle for
what some might argue are politically unattractive “internal” assets
such as the Jiama copper-goldsilver-molybdenum property in
Tibet.
In September 2009, Jinshan an-
Talison-Salares merger
TALISON, From Page 3
to participate.
The $40 million raised in the
placement will be used to finance
the growth strategies of the
merged group, including another
expansion of the Greenbushes
mine, a new round of exploration
around the operating mine aimed
at upgrading and increasing
r e sources, further feasibility
studies into developing a lithium
carbonate plant to further process concentrates from the mine,
and acceleration of the exploration work at Salares’ projects in
Chile.
Lithium applications fall within
two broad categories: technical
and chemical.
Technical applications include
glass and ceramics as well as
mould fluxes for steel casings, and
these uses require low iron concentrates. Chemical applications include batteries, lubricants,
aluminum smelting and pharmaceuticals.
Salares remained halted for several days after the merger news,
keeping its share price at 62¢. The
company has a 52-week trading
range of 46¢-$1.22 and 36 million
shares outstanding.

Jinshan goes native
The largest shareholder in Vancouver-based J i n s h a n G o l d
Mines with a nearly 40% stake is
China National Gold, a stateowned Chinese enterprise and the
country’s biggest gold producer.

from seemingly endless supply of
inexpensive credit to access to the
Chinese mining giant’s technical
expertise and pipeline of assets.
China National Gold’s general
manager — Sun Zhaoxue — is Jinshan’s chairman and chief executive, while Zhanming Wu, Jinshan’s director and vice-president
of business development, is the
head of capital markets at China

nounced in a press release that it
had signed a memorandum of
understanding with China National Gold and another partner to
acquire a 100% stake in the Jiama
property. (China National Gold
owns 51% of the project.)
But, nowhere in the press release did it mention that Jiama is
80 km outside of Lhasa, the Tibetan
capital.
The Beijing government and the
Tibetan government-in-exile disagree over the definition of Tibet
and whether its incorporation
into China is legitimate according
to international law.
“Leaving aside the (geo-political) sensitivity, if you’re talking
about it as a vehicle to go international, they’re not achieving
what they said they’re going to
do,” says a mining executive familiar with the company who request–
ed anonymity. “Just jamming
through an internal asset doesn’t
make much sense. . . A more modern state-owned enterprise would
say, ‘What is out there that would
be attractive and make us a serious
gold platform,’ but unfortunately
they don’t think like that. They’re
not particularly sophisticated.”
Lagiglia noted that China Gold
International is also looking at
other possible acquisitions around
the globe — from Russia and
Mongolia to North America, Africa and Australia. “Whatever
makes sense,” he says. “They’re not
looking at exploration or anything
greenfield, it has to be very advanced stage.”

TORONTO STOCK EXCHANGE
The markets were positive around the
globe over the July 19-23 trading period and
Toronto was no exception. The TSX composite index rose 1.4%, or 160.35 points, to
11,730. Strong economic reports in Europe
added some positivity amidst some forecasts for slowing growth in North America.
This was evident with mining stocks as investors pushed up base metals stocks while
the gold stocks were relatively flat.
The Capped Metals & Mining index
jumped 9.5%, or 83.44 points, to 959.8, while
the Global Gold index was basically unchanged at 355.19 points.
Looking at the most actively traded stocks
of the week, Lundin Mining was at the
top, with 27.1 million shares changing
hands, giving shares a 34¢ boost to close at
$3.92. The company plans to release its second quarter earnings on July 28.
Andean Resources shares were the second most actively traded, after a busy week
that included a huge $234.5-million bought
deal financing led by BMO Capital Markets
and RBC Capital Markets at $3.35 per share.
Andean will largely use the funds to advance its Cerro Negro gold project in Santa
Cruz province, Argentina. The company
reported finding “bonanza-grade” mineralization at its Mariana Central vein at Cerro

Negro. Highlights include 8.5 metres grading 46.1 grams gold per tonne, 9 metres of
127.1 grams gold and 14.5 metres of 55.3 grams
gold.
Teck Resources was one of the top gainers by value, up $3.56 to $37 a share, and one
of the most actively traded stocks, with 21.1
million shares changing hands. The company is still investigating the cause of an explosion at its Greenhills coal mine near Elkford, B.C., on June 28. The mine was
supposed to produce 4.3 million tonnes of
coal this year, or about 2% of world’s coal
supply.
Khan Resources saw its shares rise
52.1% to 35¢ apiece, following a victory in a
Mongolian courtroom and the postponement of another case. The court ruled that

to sell its 9% indirect stake to Harry for
US$220 million. Last year, when diamond
prices had dropped and the Diavik mine
faced uncertainty, Kinross paid US$104
million to Harry for the stake. Kinross is
also selling its 19.9% stake in Harry Winston
to some financial institutions, after acquiring the interest through a private placement at US$3 a share, netting about
US$150 million.
the Mongolian Nuclear Energy Agency’s decision to invalidate Khan’s mining licence
on the Dornod uranium project was invalid
and illegal.
Harry Winston Diamond was one of the
top losers based on value, down $1.43 to
close at $13 apiece. Harry announced an
agreement to increase its ownership in the
Diavik diamond mine, joint venture with
Rio Tinto, to 40%. Kinross Gold agreed

TSX VENTURE EXCHANGE
The S&P/TSX Venture composite index
managed four days of straight gains following an early week dip to close up 15.49
points at 1,394.98. Daily trading volumes increased for another week, averaging 95.3
million.
Despite the overall gain, the market is still
decidedly bearish: 18 juniors hit new highs
while 230 fell to new lows.
North Country Gold’s share price shot
up 11.5¢ or 45.1% to close at 37¢, following
some impressive initial drill results from its
Three Bluffs gold project in Nunavut. The
company went public in April and has since
been busy drilling on its 2,256-sq.-km land
package, 300 km northeast of Baker Lake.
The best drill result to date from Three
Bluffs is 42.1 metres grading 5.88 grams gold
per tonne from 7 metres depth.
Rare earth element-based companies
Rare Element Resources and Quest Rare
Minerals both saw the biggest share price
gains a week after China announced measures to restrict the supply of rare earth elements. On no news released by the companies, Rare Element Resources shares
climbed 66¢ or 27.4% to $3.07 and Quest Rare
Minerals shares rose 57¢ or 27.4% to $2.69.

awaits assaying.
The first three reported holes in a 10,000metre drill program helped propel Premium Exploration’s shares up 12.5¢ or
38.5% to 45¢. The company is working
through a drill program on its Friday-Petsite
gold project in central Idaho, with the latest
results extending the strike length by 200
metres in the Lower Block. Drill results included 203 metres grading 0.98 gram gold

tended its offer of 19¢ per Spider share until
July 26. The junior’s main asset is a 26.5% interest in the Big Daddy chromite project in
the McFaulds Lake area of northern Ontario.
Cliffs now has effective control of 73.5% of
Big Daddy, (Cliffs’ directly held 47% interest
and Spider’s 26.5% interest).
The end of a 12-month strike at Vale’s operations in Sudbury and Port Colborne, Ont.,
drove the company’s shares up US$3.38
to US$27.72 apiece. Unionized employees
voted yes to a five-year collective agreement.

David Hall, Aurizon’s chief executive, noted the arrangement
with NioGold was part of its
strategy to put together a portfolio
of properties at various stages of
development to complement the
company’s gold projects: Casa Berardi and Joanna.
Aurizon’s priority at Marban will
be extending resources that can
potentially be mined by open pit.

600,000 oz. gold.
The report divided Marban’s
resources between open pit and
underground. At a 0.5 gram gold
cutoff grade, Gustin estimated
open-pit indicated resources of 6
million tonnes grading 1.6 grams

for 179,000 oz. contained gold.
Underground resources were
calculated using a 2.5-gram gold
cutoff grade and reached 2.1 million tonnes at 4.3 grams gold for
296,000 oz. contained gold in the
indicated category, and an additional 1.5 million tonnes grading
3.9 grams gold or 182,000 oz. gold
in the inferred category.

Goldcorp invests
$15.6M in Evolving Gold
GOLDCORP, From Page 3
“We plan to do the hard work
and use this money effectively and
make what could be a very huge
discovery,” Hennigh says.
Located around and adjacent to
the Carlin property, the 93-sq.-km
Humboldt land was acquired by
Evolving in early May, bringing
the total Carlin-area land holdings
to 137 sq. km.
Evolving has the option to earn
a 100% interest in Humboldt by
spending US$9.7 million over
four years — a much better deal
for Evolving than the Carlin
property, which includes significant claw back provisions for
Newmont.
“It positions us better in terms
of any exploration done. We stand
to gain much more now,” Hennigh
says. “We know there is gold mineralization in this area and we feel
pretty good of our odds of finding
a discovery on the property.”
Evolving is currently drilling in
both Nevada and Wyoming. The
company has budgeted about $4
million for Nevada with five or six
holes planned for Humboldt and
two or three holes for the Carlin
property, each between 700 metres and 1,200 metres deep.
Last year, Evolving drilled about
5,000 metres spread across two
deep test holes and two mid-level
test holes.
For the rest of the drilling, Evolving plans to test some new targets
that were identified by surface
sampling and mapping in 2009.
All the targets are located within
a 2-km radius of North Stock and
Antelope Basin.
The company drilled 78 holes
there last year amounting to
nearly 30,000 metres and 15 holes
Evolving has the option to earn a
100% interest in Humboldt by spending
US$9.7 million over four years.
Evolving is drilling now at Humboldt. The company has outlined
16 targets based on a geophysical
survey.
In Wyoming, Evolving has also
started a 20,000-metre drill program at Rattlesnake Hills where
about 60% of the drill budget will
focus on infill and step-out drilling
around the North Stock and Antelope Basin zones.
(6,500 metres) in 2008.
Evolving is expecting a National
Instrument 43-101 technical report
update on Rattlesnake Hills to
come out shortly.
Much of the company’s exploration strategy comes from the
AMEC technical report that has
yet to be released. Hennigh expects the report will be complete
by the end of July.

Cliffs adds new coal mines in W. Virginia
BY TRISH SAYWELL
Cliffs Natural Resources’ (clf-n)
US$757-million acquisition of INR
Energy, a private equity firm with
producing metallurgical and thermal coal mines in West Virginia, is
part of the company’s long-term
belief in metallurgical coal as a
scarce mined commodity and
“probable choke point” for global
steel production, president and
chief executive Joseph Carrabba
told mining analysts and investors
on a recent conference call.
“We believe this scarcity is
going to result in met coal pricing
for all grades staying strong for at
least the intermediate term,” he
said. “Nowhere is this trend becoming more evident than our current North American coal business, where a strong pricing
environment is expected to produce well over US$100 million of
sales margin for Cliffs in 2010 and
assuming a price rollover and our
expansion plans, possibly triple
that in 2011.”
INR Energy’s operations in
southern West Virginia consist of
the Toney Fork No. 2 thermal coal
open-pit mine and the Powellton
and Chilton-Dingess Branch underground metallurgical coal
mines. Two other underground
metallurgical mines are under development. In addition, there is the
Saunders wash plant (4 million
short tons per year built at a cost of
about US$42 million) and the Elk
Lick load-out facility, which accesses the CSX railroad. The coal
could be transported by rail to the
port of Norfolk, Va., or trucked to
a wholly-owned river-loading facility on the Big Sandy River and
barged along the Ohio River system to the port of New Orleans for
export.
“Over the last several years,
we’ve communicated to our shareholders and the investment community our desire to grow as a diversified mining company by
expanding our steel-making raw
materials portfolio,” Carrabba said,
adding that the company’s coal
acquisitions since 2007 bring “a
suite of products to sell throughout the steel cycle as different
grades of coal fall in and out of demand.”
Cliffs’ initial foray into seaborne
coking coal came in January 2007
with its purchase of a 45% stake in
the Sonoma coal project in Australia. Situated in the northern limit of
Queensland’s Bowen basin coalfields, the project is owned by privately-held QCoal, an Australian
coal company. Under that deal,
Cliffs agreed to invest about
US$109 million to build a wash
plant and acquire mining assets
and rights. Cliffs operates and
owns 100% of the wash plant and
8.3% of the mining leases, bringing
its total economic interest in the

project to 45%. Production is an
equal mix of hard coking coal and
thermal coal.
That investment was followed
in June 2007 with the purchase of
PinnOak Resources, a privately
owned U.S. producer of highquality, low-volatile metallurgical
coal. Cliffs acquired the operations for US$450 million in cash
plus about US$150 million in debt.
Pinn-Oak consists of two complexes comprised of three underground mines — the Pinnacle and
Green Ridge mines in southern
West Virginia and the Oak Grove
mine near Birmingham, Ala. Pinnacle has been in operation since
that are five year’s out.”
The purchase will be financed
with cash on hand and the company’s US$600-million credit facility.
While the acquisition “is slightly
dilutive to 2011-2012 valuation,”
says Mark Liinamaa of Morgan
Stanley, Cliffs “is an interesting
value play on a recovery of steel
fundamentals we see beginning
in 4Q.”
Liinamaa points out in a research
note that INR’s met coal mines
produce a mix of about one-third
“A” quality high volume and twothirds “B” (lower) grade, and that
the deal “expands Cliffs’ met coal
footprint to as much as 8 million

US$600-million credit facility.
1969. The Green Ridge mine
opened in 2004, while the Oak
Grove mine has been in operation
since 1975.
The latest coal acquisition
brings with it new customers and
further exposure to the seaboard
market. More than half of INR
Energy’s coal production last year
was exported.
What’s more, the purchase did
not involve “taking on a legacy
of liabilities” that can be typical
in acquisitions of coal mines, management emphasized. Production
began in 2008 after an INR Energy
investment of US$200 million.
“INR acquired these assets in
2007 so everything here is new,”
says Donald Gallagher, president
of Cliffs’ North American business unit. “We’re coming into a
mine that is greenfield and what
you see is what you get, no legacies. There is no tail on this. . . so
we’re pretty confident on this one.”
In addition, a significant amount
of permitting work has been done
already. Says Carrabba: “About
one-third of reserves are under
permit so that gives us plenty of
time to start permitting processes
tonnes per year by 2012 from a
previous projection of 5.6 million
tonnes.” He estimates Cliffs’ earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (or
EBITDA) from its coal segments
increases to 21% of total 2012
EBITDA from 18%.”
Cliffs forecasts that the volume
of INR Energy’s high-volatile
metallurgical coal in 2011 will
reach 1.7 million tons, of which
200,000 tons are committed and
priced at US$100 per ton FOB
(free on board) mine. Total 2011
production of thermal coal is expected to reach 1.2 million tons,
of which 500,000 tons are committed and priced at US$66 per ton
FOB mine.
“Assuming current market pricing of about US$140 and US$75
per ton FOB mine for uncommitted high-volatile metallurgical
and thermal coal production, respectively, and expected cash
costs of about US$70 per short
ton, the acquisition is expected to
contribute significantly to Cliffs’
revenue and EBITDA,” the company outlined in a statement announcing the acquisition.
In 2011, Cliffs expects the business will raise about US$300 million in revenue and US$100 million in EBITDA, and that those
numbers will rise to over US$400
million in revenue and about
U S$175 million in EBITDA in
2012.
Cliffs will expand INR Energy’s
production of high-volatile metallurgical coal to 2.4 million tons
by 2012, increasing the company’s
total global equity coal production
in the future to nearly 11 million
tons split between 8 million tons
metallurgical and 3 million tons
thermal. INR Energy’s reserves
bring Cliffs’ total global reserve
base to more than 175 million tons
of metallurgical coal and over 57
million tons of thermal coal.
Tony Robson, who covers Cliffs
for BMO Nesbitt Burns, believes
the impact of the acquisition is
mixed. “BMO Research estimates
Cliffs paid a full price for the INR
assets, with net present value increasing by only US$80 million or
US59¢ per share,” he wrote in a
note to clients. “The acquisition
logic appears to be highly dependent on strong met coal prices
going forward, as FOB cash costs
are estimated by BMO at a relatively high US$94 per tonne for
thermal coal and US$116 per tonne
for met coal. Cliffs, however, does
gain export capacity through
INR’s rail and port access, reducing its dependence on the North
American market.”
Robson asserted that the INR
acquisition is “generally neutral” to
the company’s valuation, which increased by less than 1% to US$82.69
per share from US$82.10 per share.
“A more accretive transaction,” he
continued, “would be to buy back
its own heavily discounted stock.”
Robson has a one-month target
price on the stock of US$90 per
share. At presstime, Cliffs was
trading at US$51.14 apiece. Over
the last year, the Cleveland-based
company has traded between a
low of US$19.91 (July 13, 2009) and
a high of US$76.17 (April 6, 2010).
Kaminak extends
Latte zone at Coffee
Results from four new step-out
holes drilled on the Latte zone at
Kaminak Gold’s (kam-v) Coffee
property in the Yukon returned
encouraging intercepts including
2.35 grams gold per tonne over 51
metres and 1.27 grams gold over 78
metres.
“It’s not very often you drill your
first seven holes and hit mineralization in every one, over a 400metre strike length and open in
every direction,” Robert Carpenter, Kaminak’s president and chief
executive, said during a live webcast in Vancouver following the
recent drill results. “And we
haven’t even gotten to drilling the
best soil anomaly on Latte yet.”
Hole 9 cut 1.12 grams gold over
40 metres with the hole beginning in mineralization, hole 10 returned 3.71 grams gold over 16 metres starting at a depth of 119
metres. Hole 11 yielded 2.35 grams
gold over 51 metres from a depth of
38 metres and hole 12 returned
1.27 grams gold over 78 metres
from 24 metres, plus a newly recognized high-grade deep zone
yielded 17.4 grams gold over 1
metre starting from 176 metres
depth.
Carpenter added that he believes mineralization at the Latte
zone, and the company’s nearby
Supremo gold zone, “is of the
same pedigree as the mineralization at Golden Saddle.” Underworld Resources discovered that
deposit and was later bought by
Kinross Gold (k-t, kgc-n) for
$140 million. “Underworld did
a great job of outlining a deposit…
and that bodes well for the greenfield nature of this area,” says Carpenter.
“We’ve been able to walk into
the Yukon and within a year make
several discoveries within two
months,” he continued, adding that
the company’s threshold is in the
million- oz. range and “if we didn’t
think there was that potential we
wouldn’t be here.”
Kaminak discovered the Latte
zone below a 1-km linear gold-insoil anomaly.
Ground magnetic surveys hint
that the mineralization continues
below deeper soil cover beyond
the 1-km soil anomaly. The structure is also coincident with strong
gold-in-soil anomalies at the Kona
zone, 6 km to the west of Latte,
Kaminak says and infill soil sampling between Kona and Latte is
now underway.
The Latte zone “is associated
with a regionally significant, eastwest trending structural corridor
coincident with a 1-km long by
100-metre wide gold-in-soil anomaly,” the company said in a press
release announcing the drill results.
The latest holes were drilled
facing north and tested the strike
extent of gold mineralization
that Kaminak discovered in the
spring. The gold at Latte is hosted
in ribbon-quartz mylonite, quartzfeldspar-muscovite schist and
breccia.
Kaminak believes the alteration
mineralogy and chemistry is consistent with other significant discoveries in the White District, including the Supremo zone.
So far, 21 holes have been drilled
on the Coffee property (seven of
them at Latte) and further assay
results from the Double-Double
zone and the Supremo zone are
pending.
Kaminak is mobilizing a second
drill for the Latte zone, which arrived at the property on July 7.
News of the drill results sent
Kaminak shares up 6¢ to $1.42.
Over the last year, the junior has
traded in a range of 30¢-$1.70, with
46.83 million shares outstanding.
Says Carpenter: “I own one million shares of the company and
have put a lot of my own money
into this. When you buy Kaminak,
you are buying Rob Carpenter.”

Marathon PGM shares were up
16¢ to $1.60 apiece, basically mirroring recent share price movement from other Leprechaun drill
results. Recent drilling pushed
shares up 10¢ to $1.58 on July 5 and
25¢ to $1.70 apiece on June 15.
The company is in the middle of
an 8,000-metre drill program at
Leprechaun, which is a 300-metrewide by 2-km-long deposit with
inferred resources of 443,000 oz.
gold contained in 1.2 million
tonnes grading 10.5 grams gold.
The deposit is a part of the Valentine Lake gold project. Marathon
has an option to earn a 50% interest in the project from Mountain
Lake Resources (moa-v).
Other drilling highlights include
hole 184 with 14 metres (13.8 true
width) of 2 grams gold and hole 185
with 7 metres (both core and true
width) grading 5.79 grams gold.
Marathon PGM also noted that
grab samples had returned grades
between 49 grams and 79 grams
gold, confirming the 300-metrewide deposit is open to the southwest. The company has only done
detailed drilling for about 550 metres on strike.
Gold is hosted by sub-horizontal and steeply dipping quartz-tourmaline-pyrite veins that occur
within a major regional fault zone
that strikes for more than 30 km
across the Valentine Lake project.
The company says the best intervals occur at intersections of subhorizontal and steeply dipping vein
sets.

Vancouver — Scorpio Gold
(sgn-v) has released the first compliant resource estimate for its
Mineral Ridge gold project almost
a year after completing its initial
due diligence on the property.
Various owners operated the
southwest Nevada-based project
as an open pit between 1989 and
2005, while it was an underground
operation before that. So far, almost 575,000 oz. gold have been
produced from the site.
Scorpio is looking to restart Mineral Ridge. It’s working through a
drill program to confirm historic
data on the site, while both expanding and defining the resource.
The newly released resource
estimate on the project covers the
historic Drinkwater and Mary pits.
The estimate contains 4.23 million
indicated tonnes grading 1.46
grams gold per tonne for 221,000
contained ounces gold and 3.44
million inferred tonnes of 1.12
grams gold for 136,000 oz.
Scorpio owns 70% of the project
through a joint venture finalized in
January with Golden Phoenix
Minerals (gpxm-o). Scorpio is responsible for the cost of restarting
the project, and paid Golden
Phoenix US$7 million in cash and
shares.
The company also spent US$3
million buying an 8% net smelter
return royalty on the gold project
from Mary Mining Trust last
October.
Golden Phoenix has provided a
US$3-million bond, and the project
is permitted for heap-leach gold
processing and production. The
property has a heap-leach pad,
JINSHAN, From Page 11
of 6,000 tonnes per day. The
operation will produce a copper
concentrate with gold and silver
credits and a molybdenum concentrate.

16 AUGUST 2-8, 2010 THE NORTHERN MINER
Luiri Gold ups resources
at Luiri Hill
As Luiri Gold (lgl-t, lgm-a)
awaits clarity on the future of the
mining licence it holds on its Luiri
Hill gold project in Zambia, it has
converted more inferred resources into the indicat–ed category at the project, 120 km northwest of the Zambian capital
Lusaka.
At a 0.5-gram-gold-per-tonne
cutoff, indicated resources at the
Matala and Dunrobin gold deposits
now tally a combined 5.4 million
tonnes grading 2.4 grams gold
per tonne for contained gold of
422,000 oz., and 5.01 million
tonnes of 2.4 grams gold for
386,000 oz. gold in the inferred
category.
The Matala deposit was mined
from 1928 to 1941, with an estim­
ated 6,751 oz. gold recovered over
that period from 12,421 tonnes with
an average grade of 16.9 grams gold
from underground operations.
The deposit lies within a tabular,
south-dipping zone extending
over a strike of 1,000 metres. The
average dip of the mineralization
zone is estimated to be 65 degrees
to the south and the width of the
mineralization ranges from a few
metres to over 40 metres.
Dunrobin was similarly mined
from 1928 to 1941, with an estimated 31,593 oz. gold recovered
from 91,173 tonnes grading 10.8
grams gold from a small open pit
and underground operations.
There was no change in the Dunrobin resource estimate in the
updated figures the company released on July 7.
The Dunrobin deposit is a shallow thick tabular plunging ore–
body dipping at about 30 degrees to
the southwest on the contact between the Matala Dome (schists
and quartzites) and the surrounding Lusaka Formation carbonates.
Over the last three years, exploration has increased the project’s
resource base at a discovery cost of
less than US$10 per oz., the company states on its website. Initial
metallurgical work suggests the
gold is recoverable through conventional gravity and carbon-inleach methods.
On June 14, Luiri Gold received
a letter from Zambia’s Director of
Mines alleging that it was in default
of provisions made in the granting
of mining licence (LM48), which
covers about 28 sq. km and includes the historic Dunrobin and
Matala mines.
Luiri Gold says according to its
records and legal counsel, it is in
compliance with all of the provisions of its mining licence. It has
60 days to show that it is not in
default.
In addition to its Zambian gold
assets, Luiri Gold owns 100% of
the Nambala iron project, 20 km
west of Luiri Hill. Nambala contains hematite iron with grades of
up to 70%. Nambala lies within a
belt including several iron-rich
hills that together form the Nambala Range, which is about 25 km
in length and rises to more than
260 metres above the surrounding plains.
On the update resource news,
Luiri Gold shares closed up 4¢ or
25% at 20¢. The company has a 52week trading range of 7¢-40¢ and
105.2 million shares outstanding.
Energizer’s vanadium
hunt at Green Giant
Energizer Resources
(egz-v) continues to
get promising results
from its Green Giant
vanadium project in
Madagascar as market
curiosity about the
metal grows.
The Toronto-based
company released results from X-ray fluorescence (XRF) tests
done on the latest
round of drill holes and
says the results confirm continued vanadium mineralization in
and along the main
trend.
Highlights from five
separate holes include:
0.70% V2O5 over 63 meENERGIZER RESOURCES

So far this year, the company
Assays from the core are due in
drilled 6,779 metres and in total the coming months after which
has drilled more than 19,000 me- Energizer will look to beef up its
current indicated resource of
21.74 million tonnes V2O5 and inferred resource of 4.15 million
tonnes V2O5.
XRF readings are not certifiable
or recognized in any National Instrument 43-101 compliant resource calculation and, the company admits, results do vary from
assay results.
But Energizer says it has ample
experience with the technology
and expects a strong correlation
with assays.
The company also announced
that it has brought a vanadium industry expert, Terrance Perles, on
board to help it discover future
market opportunities.
Perles has been involved in the
vanadium industry for 22 years,
and has held senior management
positions with Stratcor and Evraz
Group’s vanadium business unit.
Evraz is one of the world’s largest
vertically-integrated steel, mining
and vanadium businesses.
Currently, more than 90% of
vanadium demand comes from the
steel industry, where some experts expect demand to grow at
7% a year over the next 15 years
thanks to the metal’s steelstrengthening properties. But
many investors are curious about
the metal because of its role in
some new battery technologies.
The most significant users of
vanadium in the battery industry
are vanadium redox batteries
(VRB), which require between one
and five tonnes of V2O5, depending
on the size of the VRB.
VRBs are large-scale energy
storage systems, which are beginning to be put into use in some parts
of the world.
“Now that the vanadium redox
flow battery technology seems to
be on the cusp of mass commercialization, it could lead to an explosive
new demand for vanadium,” Perles
said in a statement. “Significant
supply shortages of V2O5 are possible in the coming years unless
significant additional production,
meeting battery application quality requirements, is brought online
in the next few years.
Energizer was known as Uranium Star Corp. up until the end
of last year.
In Toronto, on June 23 — the day
the results were released — Energizer shares closed flat at 24¢ on
29,000 shares traded.
