drbubb Posted April 27, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2019 GOOD NEWS . MARMATO Getting More massive with good grades Gran Colombia Gold Announces Further Positive Results From Its Recently Completed 2018 Drilling Campaign at Its Marmato Project; Files National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report For Its Segovia Operations pril 25, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gran Colombia Gold Corp. (TSX: GCM; OTCQX: TPRFF) announced today that it has identified additional high-grade intercepts over broad widths in the final eight holes of the infill drilling program started in 2018 (the “2018 drilling campaign”) on the Deeps Zone at its 100%-owned Marmato Project in Caldas, Colombia. The 2018 drilling campaign was undertaken to obtain additional information in conjunction with the ongoing technical studies and evaluations focused on the potential expansion of the underground mining operations at Marmato to incorporate the Deeps Zone below the existing mining operation, including the conversion of Inferred Resources to Indicated Resources. Serafino Iacono, Executive Chairman of Gran Colombia, commented, “Our 2018 drilling campaign has increased our confidence in the geological model, extending the Deeps Zone to over 700 meters along strike, with an average width of approximately 165 meters and remaining open at depth and to the east. Results from the 2018 drilling campaign have also led to the discovery of a higher-grade zone that shows a grade constantly above 2.5 g/t Au which we will drill further in 2019 as the primary target zone for expansion of underground mining operations in the preliminary economic assessment technical study (“PEA”) to be completed later this year. A separate underground drilling program undertaken in the latter part of 2018 within the existing mining operation at Marmato has tested a block within the higher-grade zone that will be developed and placed into production later this year. All in all, we remain very encouraged by the progress we are making in the evaluation of the underground mining expansion opportunity at our Marmato Project." The 2018 drilling campaign, which commenced in June 2018 with two diamond drill rigs operating from underground at Marmato, was completed in the middle of March 2019. In all, the 2018 drilling campaign comprised 24 drill holes totaling approximately 9,460 meters. The 2018 drilling campaign tested a block 400 meters high by 700 meters long below Level 21, currently the deepest level of the producing mine at Marmato. The 2019 infill drilling campaign, totaling 8,000 meters, started in March 2019 within the same block and has been designed to further delineate and extend down plunge the higher-grade zone outlined by the 2018 drilling campaign. It also aims to convert the remaining Inferred Resources within the higher-grade block drilled in the 2018 drilling campaign to Indicated Resources. The results from both the 2018 and 2019 drilling campaigns will be used to refine the current deposit model in conjunction with an updated Mineral Resource estimate to be included in the PEA. (FOUR 100+ BOXERS)* High gold grades generated from the eight additional drill holes totaling 3,789 meters reported herein include: drill hole MT-IU-017 which intersected 35.25 m at 3.09 g/t Au and 8.0 g/t Ag from 280.25 m to 315.50 m; drill hole MT-IU-018 which intersected 35.20 m at 3.72 g/t Au and 3.3 g/t Ag from 270.90 m to 306.10 m; and drill hole MT-IU-020 which intersected 12.18 m at 3.55 g/t Au and 5.8 g/t Ag from 339.52 m to 351.70 m. In addition to the 24 drill holes in the 2018 drilling campaign, a total of 12 short underground drill holes, totaling approximately 950 meters, were also drilled from September to December 2018 to evaluate the mineral resource potential of a trial mining test block measuring 100 meters along strike by 60 meters vertically by 20 meters wide, located on Level 21 and hosting Deeps Style mineralization. A channel sampling program is being undertaken on the trial test block to reconcile grade, tonnes and ounces against the current mineral resources block model estimate and for stope design. Development of the test block is underway and mining is planned to commence in the fourth quarter of 2019. The best high gold grades generated from the 12 short underground drill holes on the trial mining test block reported herein include: drill hole MND-16-18 which intersected 18.10 m at 3.63 g/t Au and 6.1 g/t Ag from 19.07 m to 37.17 m; drill hole MND-19-18 which intersected 30.45 m at 3.81 g/t Au and 6.3 g/t Ag from 13.39 m to 43.84 m; drill hole MNI-19-18 which intersected 19.69 m at 3.77 g/t Au and 8.6 g/t Ag from 0.00 m to 19.69 m; and MNI-21-18 which intersected 24.50 m at 4.47 g/t Au and 6.4 g/t Ag from 0.00 m to 24.50 m. . . . • The higher-grade zone, referred to as the Main Zone (“MZ”), outlined by previous drilling within the geological model at 1.0 g/t Au, has been extended further along strike with an excellent continuity over 550 meters, and an average downhole width of about 37 meters and a true width of 29 meters. All the intercepts in the MZ have grades greater than 2.0 g/t Au over downhole widths of 10 to 74 meters. This zone branches off to the west, and is still open to the east; • The MZ also shows strong vertical continuity for more than 400 vertical meters, from Level 21 (1,020 meters amsl) down to 600 meters amsl, with an inferred further extension down to 200 meters amsl; • The two New Zones of Deeps Style of mineralization, previously reported in the Company’s press release dated December 13, 2018, with grades between 2-3 g/t Au, are both confirmed and extended along strike and down-dip; • A higher-grade zone has been confirmed within the MZ, which shows a strong continuity along strike to over 250 meters, with an average downhole width of 45 meters. All the intercepts that comprise this higher-grade zone show grades greater than 2.5 g/t Au over downhole widths up to approximately 160 meters; Read more at https://stockhouse.com/news/press-releases/2019/04/25/gran-colombia-gold-announces-further-positive-results-from-its-recently#m7bK5h7mH84oMjuX.99 TPRFF / GCM's USD stock price ... update / last: $2.262 +0.114, +4.56% (C$3.52 +0.15 +4.45%) * "100 Boxers" are rare.

(TSX-V: SSP, OTCQX: SSPXF) (“Sandspring” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the advancement of a Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) defining the re-scoping of its flagship Toroparu Project in Guyana, S.A. and the execution of an amendment to the Precious Metals Purchase Agreement with Wheaton Precious Metals International Ltd. (“Wheaton”) extending the due date for completion of a Final Feasibility study on the Toroparu Project to December 31, 2019. The re-scoping study of the Toroparu Project, conducted by SRK Consulting (U.S.), Inc. (“SRK”), includes a revised operating plan that utilizes the additional resources identified in the updated Mineral Resource Estimate for the Toroparu Project (Press Release of September 26, 2018). This plan would commence operations with production of gold in doré bars (“Phase One”) instead of gold contained in copper concentrate as originally proposed in the May 2013 Prefeasibility Study prepared by SRK (www.sedar.com).1 The revised plan provides the potential for a lower initial capex and the generation of sufficient free cash flow during Phase One to finance the expansion of the Project to full capacity and the construction of a run-of-river hydroelectric project2 to provide low-cost power for the Project for the expanded operations. Higher grade gold-only mineralization in the shallow portions of the Toroparu main pit, and the satellite deposits at the SE Zone and Sona Hill, would provide feed for the initial development of a Carbon-in-Leach circuit in Phase One. This initial production would be followed by expansion of production capacity to include a copper-gold-silver flotation concentrate circuit. The construction of the hydroelectric project would be timed to come on line at the completion of the expansion to provide lower power costs using a combination of hydro and on-site thermal power generation which can lead to a significant reduction of operational costs over the remaining life of the mine. Sandspring and Wheaton are currently reviewing the re-scoping of the Project in accordance with the Precious Metals Purchase Agreement entered into in November of 2013 and amended in 2015. Wheaton and Sandspring have executed a letter agreement extending the due date for delivery of a final Feasibility Study for the Toroparu Project to allow Sandspring time to complete the PEA and move to final Feasibility Study work. The final feasibility study is now due on or before December 31, 2019. “The re-scoping efforts have been a team effort and the work has taken a considerable amount of time due to the engineering and environmental due diligence necessary to incorporate the higher-grade gold resources at Sona Hill into the Toroparu Project. We want to be sure our plan to expand the project can be executed in an orderly manner without limiting our ability to process a high percentage of the Measured and Indicated resources identified in the Mineral Resource Estimate. Certainly 2019 will be a pivotal year for Sandspring and the Toroparu Project,” said Rich Munson, CEO. > http://www.sandspringresources.com/i/pdf/nr/ssp-20190226-pr.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drbubb Posted May 16, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2019 Gran Colombia earns $7.9-million (U.S.) in Q1 GRAN COLOMBIA GOLD REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2019 RESULTS; RECORD QUARTERLY GOLD PRODUCTION LEADS TO NEW HIGHS FOR REVENUE AND ADJUSTED EBITDA Gran Colombia Gold Corp. has released its unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying management's discussion and analysis for the three months ended March 31, 2019. All financial figures contained herein are expressed in U.S. dollars ("USD") unless otherwise noted. Serafino Iacono, Executive Chairman of Gran Colombia, commenting on the Company's latest results, said, "Our previously reported record quarterly production has translated into some solid first quarter financial results which have started us off well in 2019. New quarterly highs were achieved in revenue and adjusted EBITDA while Segovia's quarterly cash costs reached a historical low of $570 per ounce sold. Our cash position at the end of March 2019 was $40.2 million, up $4.6 million since the end of 2018, and we continued to pay down our Gold Notes which currently have $78.5 million aggregate principal amount outstanding. Our 2019 drilling campaign at Segovia is moving along well and will be given the intended boost in the second half of this year with the net proceeds of the private placement of convertible debentures completed in April. Our technical studies at the Marmato Project are gaining momentum and we remain on track to complete a preliminary economic assessment later this year. With another 20,472 ounces of gold produced in April, our second quarter is picking up right where we left off in March." First Quarter 2019 Highlights The Company set a new record in the first quarter of 2019 with total gold production of 60,601 ounces, up 15% over the first quarter of 2018. Buoyed by head grades improving to an average of 18.8 g/t and a 19% year-over-year improvement in tonnes processed, gold production from the Segovia Operations increased to 54,386 ounces in the first quarter of 2019, up 17% over the first quarter last year. With another 20,472 ounces produced in April, the Company's trailing 12-months' gold production at the end of April 2019 now stands at 230,283 ounces, above the top end of the Company's total gold production guidance range for 2019 of 210,000 to 225,000 ounces. Revenue reached $77.5 million in the first quarter of 2019, up 20% over the first quarter last year, largely driven by the production growth and a modest improvement in realized gold prices to an average of $1,298 per ounce in the first quarter this year despite a 2% year-over-year decline in spot gold prices. Revenue benefitted in the first quarter of 2019 from lower charges in a new refining contract that the Company entered into in January 2019 with an international refinery, saving $20 per ounce sold compared with its previous arrangement. The Company is also being paid faster under the new refining contract, a benefit to operating cash flow and reducing its credit exposure on trade receivables. Production growth and the increase in head grades were key factors reducing Segovia's total cash costs (1) to a historical low of $570 per ounce, bringing the Company's total cash costs per ounce down to $621 per ounce in the first quarter of 2019 from $670 per ounce in the first quarter last year. All-in sustaining costs ("AISC") (1) and All-in costs (1) in the first quarter of 2019 were $832 per ounce and $843 per ounce, respectively, both down from $920 per ounce in the first quarter last year. For 2019, the Company continues to expect that its total cash costs and AISC averages for the full year will remain below $720 per ounce and $950 per ounce, respectively. The Company reported adjusted EBITDA (1) of $35.3 million for the first quarter of 2019, up 29% over the first quarter last year, bringing the trailing 12-months' adjusted EBITDA at the end of March 2019 to a total of $110.2 million, up 8% over 2018, driven by production growth and the reduction in total cash costs per ounce sold. Net cash provided by operating activities in the first quarter of 2019 of $19.8 million, up 56% over the first quarter last year, improved the Company's Free Cash Flow (1) in the first quarter of 2019 to $11.3 million compared with $4.5 million in the first quarter last year. The Company's balance sheet benefitted from the first quarter of 2019's operating and financial performance, increasing its cash and cash equivalents to $40.2 million at March 31, 2019 from $35.6 million at the end of 2018. As of May 15, 2019, the aggregate principal amount of Gold Notes issued and outstanding has been reduced through two quarterly repayments in 2019 to $78.5 million, down from $88.3 million at the end of 2018. On April 4, 2019, the Company closed its bought deal private placement of CA$20.0 million of Convertible Debentures due 2024, adding approximately $13.6 million (after costs and expenses) to its cash position and $14.9 million to its long-term debt. The net proceeds will be used to fund an acceleration of the drilling program at the Segovia Operations over the next two years focused on mineral reserve and resource additions for further production growth and mine life extension.

drbubb Posted May 16, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2019 Chart & Bullboard Comments if GCM can get thru C$4 and C$4.25, should be "off to the races" RE: Q1 the enterprise value (fully diluted market cap + debt - cash) to EBITDA (x4) ratio is less than 1.5x's. such market valuation isn't merely irrational, it's utterly insane. in fact, it's so unheard of in today's market, i don't even know what it can be compared to. / 2 / yes, a lot of taxes paid in Q1 ...very good .. without these payments the cash-balance would be some million USD higher ... + inventory up (more stockpiles) ... very good numbers at all ... investment in the segovia mine will come down soon with mill upgrade completed in 4-6 weeks , tailings will be complete soon, filter press-installation will be completed soon, the same for ventilation-improvements... so the free cashflow likely will rise sooner or later even with a bit higher cash-costs... appr. 7million spent on drilling and mine improvements in Q1 ... this will pay out over time... modernisation will be completed soon and more free cashflow is likely.... / 3 / net debt already is below 38 million USD because inventory up (some unsold gold and more ore at stockpiles) , most of 2019 taxes already paid , about 3 million at the gold trust + VAT recovery ... net debt is below 30 million USD now ...Book value now is near 6 CAD..... GCM is the strongest / 4 / from the CC: - 16 million USD taxes already paid in Q1 (less in the next quarters) - 40-45 million USD in the mines this year (mine upgrades/studies/drilling) - mining at Sandsprings project near Segovia very soon -mining a higher-grade Zone at Marmato later this year (possibly lower AISC) -Capex Marmato expansion less/near 200 million USD (very cheap for such a big project) (PEA later this year) ..very intersting...Q2 will be very good again...

Not many miners do that. Gran Columbia Gold (TSX: GCM) - The Cheapest Gold Miner? Interview with Serafino Iacono, Executive Chairman of Gran Colombia Gold. Stockhouse comment: RE:...:interview with Serafino Iacono great interview..a lot of things are going on... the news about Marmato , Zancudo and Venetuala are superb! .... AISC are high? please read the q1 financial report.. they are not high.. C1 cashcosts 570$ oz .. Segovia's total cash costs decreased to a historical low of $570 per ounce in the first quarter of 2019, down from $616 per ounce in the first quarter last year, benefitting from the increased volume of gold production this year that helped to further reduce its fixed production costs on a per ounce basis. Segovias total cash costs per ounce in the first quarter of 2019 also benefitted from the favourable impact of mining higher-grade material in the Company-operated area of the Providencia mine where the incremental production costs associated with the additional gold production attributable to the better grades were much lower. "The Companys AISC of $832 per ounce for the first quarter of 2019 included $7.2 million of sustaining capital expenditures attributable to the Segovia Operations, the major components of which included (i) $2.1 million for drilling under the Companys ongoing exploration campaign, (ii) $2.4 million for ongoing mine development, (iii) $1.3 million for the mines including continuation of the ventilation improvements at the El Silencio mine, further infrastructure upgrades at the Providencia mine, and underground equipment and infrastructure improvements at the Sandra K mine, (iv) $0.7 million associated with the expansion of the Maria Dama plant to 1,500 tpd which should be completed in the second quarter this year, together with costs associated with the new filter press, (v) $0.6 million for costs related to the ongoing construction activities at the new El Chocho tailings storage facility, and (vi) $0.1 million associated with the Segovia site facilities." / 2 / Giant . 400koz ar least with marmato coming .

Moreover, many momentum traders and speculators continue to ignore most of the resource sector altogether. Although the GDX has not moved much over the past month, many juniors in the complex continue to be sold off, while others have seen trading volume slow to a trickle. This has created an excellent buying opportunity in the junior resource space for long-term, cashed up contrarians. Recent trading action in the precious metal’s equity complex is reminiscent to the environment of late 2015. The first leg of this nearly eight-year bear eventually ended with a six-month base in the GDX, which was formed during the last half of 2015. This strong bottom remains in place today and was created after losing over 80% of its value from all-time highs set in late 2011.
